AI pilots often succeed in controlled demos but fail to scale due to messy real-world conditions like inconsistent data, disjointed systems, and unclear ownership. Companies such as Klarna have experienced initial cost savings from AI agents, only to rehire humans after service quality dropped, highlighting the need for organisational readiness and governance to deploy AI agents effectively at scale.
