AI Diffusion: Lessons From The Frontier

By Duane Fernandes · Published March 2025

What can we learn from the organisations leading the AI charge? This presentation distils key lessons from frontier AI adopters to help your organisation navigate the AI diffusion curve.

Key Takeaways

  • Frontier AI adopters move faster because they treat AI as a strategic capability, not a tool experiment.
  • Successful diffusion combines a clear executive mandate, dedicated technical talent, and continuous knowledge capture.
  • The gap between organisations that scale AI and those that stall is widening — and it compounds quarter over quarter.
