I’m Curtis “Ovid” Poe. I’ve been building software for decades. Today I largely work with generative AI, Perl, Python, and Agile consulting. I regularly speak at conferences and corporate events across Europe and the US.

If you’re wondering how generative AI can help your company, consider the following. The 2024 Work Trend Index by Microsoft and LinkedIn shows that 75% of knowledge workers are using AI in their daily work, and a whopping 78% are hiding this from their employers, afraid that they’ll have these tools taken away. If you are wondering how to implement an AI strategy for your company, your employees are already doing it for you, but with no control over your data, no control over the legal and ethical implications, or knowledge sharing.

But there’s good news and I can help you with this. Because people are learning fast, from the bottom-up, you can safely implement an AI strategy via a top-down mandate, but a bottom-up implementation. This allows you to learn AI with minimal risk, satisfying investor pressure to develop an AI strategy, and allows you to navigate this new, complex world, evolving a strategy that works for you.
