The Power of Human + AI Collaboration
Mark Stratton recently explored how the strongest AI outcomes come from pairing advanced models with human judgment, domain expertise, and accountability – not replacing people, but amplifying how teams think and work. He highlights why organizations that treat AI as a collaborative partner are better positioned to drive real ROI, reduce risk, and build systems that scale with confidence.
In our latest case study, we delve into how O’Neal Steel tackled the challenge of an aging data platform while preparing for a major ERP transition.
