Adopting AI is no longer the challenge. The challenge now is proving what changed because of it. That was the thread running through Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo 2026 in Orlando, where the keynotes made one thing clear: only 8% of organizations have turned AI into a real competitive advantage.
This e-book brings together the conference’s biggest takeaways, from the keynote stage to the analyst sessions, across seven themes: governance and risk, agents and decision intelligence, the economics of AI, people, resilience, and more. Insi was there, and we pulled out what matters most to CIOs and technology leaders.
More than a recap, it turns those insights into a practical guide for taking AI from experimentation to measurable business results.
