The View From Here: The Infrastructure Ceiling Holding Enterprise AI Back

In this episode of the Built for Trust Podcast, Nick Lippis shares findings from a recent ONUG community survey of senior practitioners managing large-scale, regulated enterprise infrastructure.

The results paint a clear picture: the hype around AI is real, the investment is real, but production deployments are lagging far behind. And the primary reason may be the network itself.

Nick walks through what the data reveals about why governance and compliance have emerged as the top inhibitor to scaling AI, why organizations remain deeply divided on where sensitive AI workloads should live, and why enterprises are deploying agents faster than they are building the infrastructure to support them.

Only 18% of respondents believe their infrastructure roadmap is keeping pace with AI’s trajectory. The community knows the stakes. The question is whether they move fast enough to lead or spend the next few years catching up.

If you want to know where enterprise AI actually stands today, the data in this episode tells the real story.
