What have you seen as the biggest hurdles for businesses in AI adoption and implementation?

Hey r/ArtificialNtelligence - consultant at LotusAI here. We work with PE firms and financial services companies, doing AI maturity assessments, opportunity scans, and creating & realising value in an accelerated manner. After dozens of these engagements, I'm curious what others are seeing as the barriers to corporate AI adoption.

From our perspective, the biggest hurdles aren't what you'd expect. Rather than issues around data, technology, or budget; there seems to be much more complexity around culture, change management, business impact, and ROI. Lack of proper AI adoption, little to no employee upskilling, weak AI governance, etc. contribute to overall struggles with ROI on AI implementation.

What are you seeing? Do these resonate with your experience? Especially curious to hear from folks who've been through enterprise AI implementations.
