Session Description
Facilitated, peer-to-peer, under the Chatham House Rule — not recorded. As enterprise AI adoption accelerates, token spend is scaling faster than value realization. We address i) how to make decisions amid unclear cost and value dynamics, ii) how to shift from token-level to workflow-level analysis, and iii) how to manage downstream behavior implications on AI usage.
