What Could Cause Your AI Strategy to Get Burned?

Every organization is approaching AI from a different starting point.
• Some are exploring.
• Some are piloting.
• Some are already using it.
• Others are still deciding where to begin, while shadow AI permeates.

But regardless of the stage, the risks underneath AI adoption are becoming harder to ignore:
Data privacy. Infrastructure costs. Compliance. Intellectual property. Backup and recovery.

At TMG ZENITH Cincinnati 2026, LCO CTO Steve Searles will connect those issues during:
How to Make Duck Flambé: AI, Cloud, and Data Protection Without Getting Burned

10:40 a.m. | Union Terminal 1

Before or after Steve’s session, visit the LCO table and take the companion “Don’t Get Burned:

most quickly cause the strategy to get burned? Enter our drawing for a chance to win a $250 Duck

Before AI Touches Your Data

AI is moving quickly from experimentation into everyday business use. But before AI touches your
data, organizations need to decide:
• What information can be safely shared?
• What should remain private?
• What must be protected, backed up, and recoverable?
• Where should the infrastructure supporting AI actually live?
