AI Is Not Built for You. Yet.

AI is changing business, but the real opportunity isn’t just using the technology. It’s knowing what is actually worth building. On Monday, October 5, join FACC North Texas and Mikko Peltola, Co-Founder & COO of A-CX, at Rock & Brews in Grapevine for an evening conversation about AI for business and what this shift could mean for companies today.

What the Talk Covers

If you’ve ever asked ChatGPT for something and wondered why the answer wasn’t quite what you needed, it wasn’t you. Most AI tools today are built by engineers, for engineers. So far, the real gains have gone to companies with their own software teams. Mikko thinks that is about to flip.

Building a tool has become cheap enough that it can be shaped around how your business actually works, instead of the other way around. That changes what matters: knowing your business, understanding how the work really happens, and recognizing what is actually worth building.

Mikko will share where we see companies getting stuck with AI, and what the ones that move forward do differently. No slides full of bullets, no jargon. About 20 minutes of talk, then Q&A.
