When “I Feel Love” arrived in 1977, its electronic sound felt like the future.

The technology wasn’t hiding in the background. It was helping create something people hadn’t heard quite like that before.

And eventually, something interesting happened.

People stopped being fascinated simply because electronic music was electronic. The technology became part of how music was made.

AI will get there, too.

Eventually, we’ll spend less time talking about AI itself—and more time talking about what talented people are able to create with it.

That’s when this gets really interesting.

Sometimes you realize the world you’ve been operating inside has become too small.

There’s a little “Born to Run” in that feeling.

And it’s a tension a lot of leaders are experiencing with AI right now.

The processes we’ve relied on may not be the processes that carry us into the next era. The assumptions that got us here may not get us where we want to go.

Moving FORWARD means being willing to question those boundaries—and see what might be on the other side.

Duran Duran understood something early about music video:

It wasn’t just another place to promote the song.

It could become part of the experience.

That distinction feels remarkably current.

When a new technology or channel arrives, our first instinct is often to take the thing we already do and put it there.

The bigger opportunity is figuring out what the new medium lets us do differently.

We’re asking that same question about AI now.

Not just: How can AI help us do this?
But: What does AI make possible that wasn’t before?

Sometimes moving FORWARD starts when the plan you had is gone.

After Nirvana ended, Dave Grohl could have stepped into any number of roles. Instead, he started recording his own songs—and what began as a deeply personal project became Foo Fighters.

There wasn’t a neat blueprint for what came next.

There usually isn’t.

That’s part of what makes reinvention difficult. You often have to start building the next thing before you know exactly what it will become.

A useful reminder for a moment when a lot of us are trying to do exactly that.

Who’s driving your AI strategy? 🚘

The Cars might have given us the soundtrack for this question.

Is it your technology? Your vendors? Whatever new tool everyone is talking about this week? What your competitors are doing?

Or is there a clear business strategy behind where you’re headed?

AI can give organizations extraordinary capabilities.

It still can’t decide where your organization should go.

That part belongs to leadership.

“The times they are a-changin’.”

More than 60 years later, Bob Dylan has given us a pretty good opening for a conversation about AI.

Because the times are, once again, changing.

We could spend a lot of energy debating whether that change is good, bad, overhyped or underestimated.

But leaders have another job.

We have to decide what we’re going to do while it happens.

What will we learn? What will we change? What will we protect? Where will we lead?

The times are changing either way.

FORWARD is about choosing what comes next.

“Go Your Own Way" by Fleetwood Mac.

Beyond this song title, there’s something important in the idea.

Every organization trying to figure out AI right now is surrounded by opinions about what it should be doing. New tools. New models. New predictions. New playbooks.

At some point, leadership means deciding which direction actually makes sense for your organization.

You can learn from everyone else.

But eventually, you have to go your own way.

Every new technology goes through a phase where people wonder whether it’s the real thing or just a gimmick.

Electronic music certainly did.

Depeche Mode helped answer that question by making the technology part of the craft. Synthesizers weren’t there just because they were new. They became part of a distinctive sound.

AI is going through its own version of this right now.

Eventually, the novelty wears off. And that’s when things get interesting.

Because the question stops being, “Have you tried AI?”

And becomes, “What are you actually good at doing with it?”
