Presentation Summary
This fast-paced session demonstrates how CIOs and senior IT leaders can evolve from simple conversational AI pilots to enterprise grade generative AI and agentic operations through a live demonstration.
Using n8n workflow automation, the presenter will build an AI agent in real time, using each component to address critical enterprise concerns including hallucination management, the power and limitations of retrieval augmented generation (RAG), model variance and cost considerations, and some discussion of governance frameworks. Attendees will see actual implementation challenges and solutions as they emerge during the build process, providing an introductory strategic overview and some key decision points for enterprise AI adoption.
CIOs, CTOs, technology directors and senior business leaders who are planning or early piloting AI initiatives and seeking insights into generative AI’s practical challenges, governance considerations, and operational realities will find this session valuable.

Over his 30-year career, he has guided multi-million and billion-dollar enterprises, serving in executive roles like CEO, CTO, and VP of Engineering, and fractional consulting, while driving innovative solutions that harmonize people, processes, and cutting-edge technologies.
Scott’s expertise is deeply rooted in pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with technology. Early in his career at NeXT Computer under Steve Jobs, he was the youngest director tasked with mentoring Fortune 500 companies as they adopted pioneering object technology. He has also authored several seminal books on enterprise Java and client-side technologies, cementing his reputation as a leading-edge thinker and practitioner.
Scott’s impact extends beyond the corporate world. He actively collaborates with policymakers, government entities, and congressional leaders to thoughtfully shape the trajectory of emerging technologies such as AI. His insights on generative AI have been sought out by congressional staff, and he frequently engages in policy work addressing critical issues like privacy, patent law, and regulatory frameworks. This unique cross-section of technical mastery, industry acumen, and policy influence positions Scott as an authority on leveraging AI responsibly to deliver exceptional customer experiences and drive business impact.
