Why 95% Of AI Projects Fail - And How Better Data Architectures Change The Odds
Techstrong.ai, December 10,2025
In this Techstrong.ai Leadership Insights video, Boris Bialek, vice president and global field CTO for Industries at MongoDB, dives into the some of the example of successful artificial intelligence (AI) projects that can be found in the newly published book, "Architectures for the Intelligent AI-Ready Enterprise: Building real-world solutions with MongoDB".
Bialek says the AI conversation was flooded with hype and 'marketing fluff,' while real implementation guidance was in short supply. The book, now a hefty 500 pages, distills architectures and patterns from actual customer projects, not slideware. Those projects span industries but share a common thread: using data and architecture, not just models and prompts, to move the business needle.
