Eleni Giokos, Alex Israel, Antonoaldo Neves, Saad Toma
IBM, Etihad Airways, and Metropolis leaders discuss how enterprises are leveraging AI to drive tangible efficiency gains, citing IBM's $9.5 billion book of business and $4.5 billion in internal savings alongside Etihad's automated revenue management. The panel highlights a geopolitical landscape defined by US-China competition, noting a 156-qubit quantum chip breakthrough by IBM while emphasizing that the primary barrier to adoption remains data unification rather than technology limitations. Participants diverge on labor market impacts, balancing Alex's concerns over skilled job displacement with Antonello's optimism regarding workforce evolution toward higher-order questioning skills.
