This week's diginomica "Enterprise hits and misses" roundup centers on buyers facing off against vendors over AI contracts and liability. A diginomica survey found 65% of CIOs say AI is taking the largest share of new tech investment this year, yet just 3% are very confident their governance fits the AI tools they deploy, and 12% admit they're deploying faster than they can govern.
The piece covers how enterprise buyers can lock in AI pricing, ROI and liability terms in vendor contracts, plus AI security as a moving target and the AI bubble debate getting real.
