At WAICF 2026, Tech Funding News spoke with Adaptive CEO Julien Launay about a defining shift in enterprise AI. After a year of accelerating adoption, the experimental era is over. AI systems must now fit into existing workflows, take action in real time, and deliver measurable cost-performance gains. Launay shared how Adaptive is powering this transition for companies like AT&T and Manulife, helping them build specialized agents that transform customer support, fraud detection, and more. The piece also explores the transatlantic adoption gap, noting that American enterprises reorganize entire workflows around AI while many European firms still treat it as a separate, reversible effort.
