The Cybernetic Enterprise: Why AI Alone Won’t Transform Industry | CTO Forum Keynote

How can AI truly drive value in the industrial sector? In this keynote from the CTO-Forum of the Rudolf-Diesel-Medaille, I break down why AI alone is not the answer.

Discover how forward-thinking organizations are moving beyond the AI hype by building cybernetic enterprises: adaptive systems where process, organization, technology, governance, and AI work together in continuous feedback loops.

I share real-world insights, architecture blueprints, and a proven approach using platform engineering to create scalable, intelligent, and future-proof digital foundations.

Topics Covered:
🔹Why AI hype is unsustainable in its current form
🔹What it really takes to transform an industrial organization
🔹The principles of a cybernetic enterprise
🔹How to build and scale a cybernetic platform
🔹Real-life examples from Zühlke's client projects
