Why AI Alone Doesn’t Replace Strategy # Artificial Intelligence is the central topic in the industrial sector, too. But to gain real competitive advantages through and with AI, companies must not blindly follow the hype. An “AI-First” label guarantees neither innovation nor future viability. Only those who combine people, technology, and organization in a learning system, the Cybernetic Enterprise, will be successful in the long run.
The most successful companies of the next decade will not just use AI. They will be organized around it. The AI-augmented enterprise is an operating model where human expertise and AI capabilities form a continuous feedback loop, enabling organizations to sense, decide, and act faster than ever before.

We Are Living in the AI Hype Era # AI is dominating headlines. From natural language interfaces to automated code generation, the pace of development is relentless. But alongside this excitement, we are seeing inflated promises, rushed implementations, and disappointing returns.
What does “continuous value flow through platform engineering” actually mean? In this Zühlke Commerce Talk, I sat down with my colleague Dennis Kolmitz, Engagement Manager at Zühlke responsible for our commerce customers, to discuss exactly that. We explored why platform engineering is becoming essential for commerce organizations that want to innovate faster, reduce friction, and keep their best talent.
Enterprise Architecture is a big word that hangs heavy in the air. What does it actually mean for your organisation, and how does AI fit into the picture? In this talk, which I gave at the HSLU (Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts) in association with the Digital Veterans Association, I explore how Enterprise Architecture, platform engineering, and AI come together as a strategic lever for modern organisations.

A lot of banks are moving to modern software development despite the traditional industry hurdles like compliance, regulations, and legacy architecture. The shared goal: becoming more adaptable to meet customers’ changing demands.
After the strong response our previous video on VR received on LinkedIn, people kept asking the same questions: Is this really the new normal? Where is the technology going? Is now the right moment to jump in? To go deeper, I invited Christoph back into the conversation together with Michaela. Christoph has been working with enterprise clients on virtual reality for years, and our discussion ranges from the maturing hardware and software ecosystem to what a workshop in VR actually feels like, and why the employer of the future will hand out three devices instead of one.
What happens when you skip the plane, the traffic and the Zoom fatigue and simply meet a colleague in a virtual office on another continent? In this conversation, I jump into VR to visit Michele at BCVR. Within a click I am standing next to him in Chicago, coffee in hand, looking over diagrams on the wall and exploring what it really means to work, train and collaborate in the Metaverse. This is not a demo of a gaming toy. It is a look at a serious business environment that, even in 2021, already feels remarkably close to the future of work.
