In this BG2 guest interview, Altimeter partner Apoorv Agrawal sits down with Ali Ghodsi (Databricks) and Arvind Jain (Glean) for a candid, operator-level discussion on what’s actually working in enterprise AI—and what isn’t.They unpack why 95% of AI projects fail, why LLMs are rapidly commoditizing, and why durable advantage is shifting to proprietary data, agentic systems, and workflow integration. The conversation dives deep into real-world use cases across finance, healthcare, and retail; the debate over whether we already have AGI; and how AI spend, CapEx, and valuation bubbles will realistically play out. A must-watch for builder, and investors navigating the AI transition inside real organizations.Timestamps:(00:00) Intro(01:00) Consumer AI vs. Enterprise Reality(02:15) Why 95% of AI Projects Fail(04:15) RBC, Merck, and 7-Eleven Use Cases(06:45) What Actually Makes AI Work(07:00) LLMs Are Commodities—Data Is the Moat(08:45) Failed AI Bets at Databricks & Glean(11:00) RPA vs. Generative AI(14:15) Advice for CIOs Planning AI Budgets(16:00) AI CapEx and the Revenue Math(18:00) The Three Camps of AI(21:00) Making AI Useful Inside Enterprises(24:30) Why Apps Capture the Value(30:00) The Future of UI, Voice, and Data Entry(37:30) Rapid Fire: Winners, Bubbles, Long/ShortProduced by Dan ShevchukMusic by Yung SpielbergAvailable on Apple, Spotify, www.bg2pod.comFollow:Apoorv Agrawal @apoorv03 https://x.com/apoorv03BG2 Pod @bg2pod https://x.com/BG2Pod
