Organized chaos adopting GenAI at Enterprise
summary
A 60,000‑person engineering firm starts GenAI adoption March 2023, crowdsources >2,000 internal use cases in a week, and forms a SWAT team to deploy and benchmark new LLMs weekly (GitHub Copilot, Copilot in PowerPoint, open‑source Nexus.ai/agent stacks). It builds a secure perimeter and an internal portal EPAM.AI plus AI games that surface ideas (two pilot products result), codifies practices into a named methodology AI Run, and scales via domain pods and ambassadors; client wins and awards validate the approach though topline metrics stay internal.
