Why are so many organizations investing in AI only to watch their efforts fizzle? Mallory and Amith unpack 10 core reasons for these failures—ranging from building chat-first features instead of end-to-end workflows, to skipping the unglamorous data cleanup that powers real results. Drawing from Vishwas Lele’s insightful LinkedIn post and their own experiences in the association world, the duo shares practical guidance for leaders ready to move beyond flashy demos and into lasting value. Plus, they explore why your staff still prefer ChatGPT over that expensive new AMS add-on, and what associations can do to shift from AI experiments to real transformation.🤖 Join the AI Mastermind: https://sidecar.ai/association-ai-mastermind📕 Download the New 3rd Edition of ‘Ascend’:https://sidecar.ai/ai📅 Join the pre-registration list for digitalNow 2026:https://digitalnow.sidecar.ai/digitalnow2026📧 Test out our customer service agent Izzy by emailing [email protected]🛠 AI Tools and Resources Mentioned in This Episode:ChatGPT ➔ https://chat.openai.comClaude ➔ https://claude.aipWin.ai ➔ https://www.pwin.ai🎀 Use code AIPOD50 for $50 off your Association AI Professional (AAiP) certification at https://sidecar.ai/aaip🚀 Help Us Grow Our Reach - Share With a Friend or Colleague!👍 Like & Subscribe!https://x.com/sidecarglobal https://www.youtube.com/@SidecarSynchttps://sidecar.ai/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/sidecar-global/Amith Nagarajan is the Chairman of Blue Cypress, a family of purpose-driven companies and proud practitioners of Conscious Capitalism.
