Integration framework

Which concrete choice can you discuss with this framework?

The idea, in brief

I organise the framework around four points of contact between AI and organisations and four domains: Resources, Data and Information, Use Cases and Tools. I distinguish Co-Intelligence from Cybernetic Workforce and Make, Build-Configure and Buy. I propose a map of configurations and discuss its validity and fragility.

Here I summarise the chapter’s argument. Below you will find an excerpt from my book and the references I cite there, numbered as in the bibliography.

An excerpt from my book

Original Italian text, from the chapter opening. · 1 min

Il compito principale che mi sono dato per questo libro è stato fin dall'inizio speculativo e critico. Per questa ragione ho lavorato per sottrazione togliendo strati di retorica sedimentata intorno all'AI per arrivare a qualcosa che assomigli a una postura operativa onesta.

My note

I started writing this FRAMEWORK on sheets from a notepad bearing a client's “logo”, in the waiting time between one meeting and the next. I worked on it during several trips to Naples and finished it in the first week of my holidays, at the seaside, under the beach umbrella in the summer of 2025. I think it is heavily conditioned by the sea salt.
