[95%] of AI projects fail… MIT 8/18/25
Written by Jim Vickers

But the 5% that succeed?

They’re crushing it!

Here’s what separates winners from losers:

The 95% that fail:

➤ Build everything in-house

➤ Chase flashy sales AI

➤ Let internal teams “figure it out”

➤ Try to solve everything at once

The 5% that win:

✅ Partner with AI experts

✅ Start with back-office automation

✅ Get strategic guidance early

✅ Master one problem at a time

Real story:

A client came to me mid-crisis.

They’d built an entire AI platform internally—big promises, no results.

We stepped in.

Audited their approach.

Rebuilt with a smarter strategy.

Today?

They’re not just back on track—they’re finalizing a new product line!

Lesson:

The difference between failure and ROI?

The right partner at the right time.
