AI is everywhere, but knowing where it can genuinely create value is becoming the real competitive advantage. In this fireside chat, Steph Fabb, Chief Data Officer at Independent Media, the parent company of The Independent, HuffPost UK and The Standard, among others, joins Domo to share how she is taking a disciplined, business-led approach to data and AI, focusing not on what AI can do, but on what it should do. From building trusted data foundations and a single source of truth, to bringing teams together through an AI steering committee and measuring the true cost and return of data investment, Steph will share practical lessons from embedding AI across the organisation. The conversation will explore how to balance innovation with control, where AI can make the biggest impact, why not every problem needs AI, and how data teams are evolving from reporting functions into strategic partners that help businesses make better decisions. At the heart of the conversation is a simple principle: the value of AI isn't in the technology itself - it's in the better decisions it enables.
