Hi, I'm Naomi Lariviere, one of the chief product owners at ADP, and I'm in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia at Web Summit. all for the small businesses and startups that are actually on the forefront of innovation.
And and you might be wondering what's landing behind me. It's a seaplane. And then you might be also wondering what that has to do with AI. Well, if you think about seaplanes and traditional infrastructure around airplanes, if you think it was built for like runways and infrastructure and it was very set, you had to go to an airport. Seaplanes change all of that. You can land a plane in a lake and it works, right?
The thing with AI is it's doing just that. Now you can do something and everybody can work on the same project at the same time instead of just one team doing.
But I think she plans also require a different mindset. So pilots have less space to navigate and it's in less predictable environments. The conditions are going to change faster than we probably know. organizations that are winning with AI are not just building bigger airports. They're building fleets of seaplanes, you know, smaller, more agile teams, cross-functional operators. And I think that's where the future of work and seaplanes interconnect.
