In the launch of Applied AI Australia, Ramon Rodriguez unpacks the rapid rise of AI and what it means for business leaders who don’t come from a technical background. Drawing parallels with the fall of the Yellow Pages, he shows why companies that delay risk being left behind.

Ramon highlights how AI adoption is moving faster than any past technology wave, already reshaping industries and decision cycles. He shares his own experiences of applying AI to overcome resource constraints and deliver measurable results, making the case that AI is not a future project — it’s today’s competitive advantage.
