• Enterprise will stay stuck in pilots until there is more trust.

• TAI requires evidence and data; it currently suffers from a measurement problem.

• Untrustworthy AI is worse than no AI in critical industries, like healthcare.

• TAI makes AI useful, adoptable and worth building.

• Understanding TAI for your business is how you understand your customers.
