Show Notes
How is AI really reshaping freight brokerages, and what's the reality behind all the hype? Today, we have S&P Global's Eric Johnson back on the show to discuss the latest trends in AI and freight tech!
We dive into how major companies are approaching AI differently, why 95% of enterprise AI projects show no ROI yet, the gap between marketing promises and actual performance, our insight on training large language models, balancing automation with human skills, and creative problem-solving!
