Mike Morin, VP of Business Development at webAI, joins Alex Kalish to explain why webAI bets on orchestrated networks of specialized models instead of one giant LLM — and how that unlocks "latent compute," the idle laptops and machines companies already own. They also dig into why AI pilots stall before production (40% technology, 60% change management) and why the real unlock is focusing on the specific decisions that move your KPIs, not mapping AI to old org charts.
