Episode #66 | Hans Petter Dalen | On the importance of governance, and the art of making AI useful
In this episode, Lasse Rindom is joined by Hans Petter Dalen - “HP” to most - who heads up AI Governance for IBM across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. With more than two decades inside IBM and a rare mix of realism, wit, and deep enterprise insight, HP brings clarity to a conversation often lost in hype words and messages.
Together, they unpack:
How IBM actually saved $3.5 billion with AI - and why it's more than just a nice number or marketing message
Why AI governance isn’t bureaucracy, but the key to doing real things at scale
The hidden cost of shadow AI, and why your apps may already be leaking value and risk
And why relevance, not general capability, is the true frontier for enterprise AI
HP doesn’t sugarcoat it: most companies are still in the sandbox. But the tools are here, the use cases are maturing, and the mandate is clear- get serious, or get left behind.
