George Wright III interviews AI architect and Chief of AI CEO Adrian Rosebrock about moving beyond AI hype to measurable ROI and durable competitive advantage. Rosebrock shares his background building and selling PyImageSearch, then explains three waves of AI adoption: early access/adoption, the coming focus on economics and governance (including token-cost volatility and “tokenomics”), and a future differentiation phase centered on proprietary data and custom models. He uses Bridgewater’s internally trained model as an example of higher accuracy, lower token costs, and defensible advantage. They discuss when to buy, modify, or build AI using a risk-vs-differentiation grid, why AI should optimize back-office work rather than replace human-facing relationships, and common mistakes around governance, compliance, and preventing employees from uploading sensitive data.
