Great briefing today with Meredith Whalen (Chief Research and Data Officer) and Joe Bradley (SVP, AI & Chief Scientist) from IDC on their strategy and approach to A.I. This was part of my Lusher Advisory research project exploring "Adoption of AI Tools by Industry Analyst Firms," and I was genuinely impressed with the clarity of IDC's thinking and their serious investment in thriving in the age of A.I. My key takeaways are… You'll have to attend my AR Engage 2025 session "Sneak Peek: How Analyst Firms Are Really Using AI" to get these and other insights about how AR needs to adapt its approach to informing analysts beyond traditional briefings and major announcements. See the comments for a link to AR Engage 2025. Special thanks to Kini Schoop (Sr. Director Corporate Communications) for making this briefing happen! #AnalystRelations #AI #IDC #ARchat #ARengage2025 ARInsights, Katie Kregel, Jamie Fiorda, Lusher Advisory
