Event Overview

Ask most engineering orgs who owns their AI cost and you'll get a pause, maybe some finger-pointing. Engineering figures finance is tracking it. Finance assumes the platform team has it covered. Meanwhile the spend keeps going up and it turns out nobody's actually been watching, which is usually the point where someone gets an uncomfortable question from the CEO or CFO.

Patrick Brogan and James Camp deal with this constantly, and what they keep running into is that hardly anyone can say who owns the number. A lot of the leaders they talk to admit they're not sure themselves. They'll open with what they're seeing across teams and some ideas for how to set up ownership people actually trust, then hand it over to the room. Come ready to say how ownership works on your team, or to say you haven't figured it out either.
