On this episode of Masters of Data, Adam White and David Girvin dig into Sumo Logic’s freshly launched compliance apps for Claude, ChatGPT, and LiteLLM, and why your IT team will want to pay attention before the token bill arrives. We unpack how enterprises can move beyond the “AI black hole” era of shadow IT and actually get eyes on who is using what, how much it is costing, and whether any of it is moving the needle. From Uber burning through its annual AI budget in a few months to Microsoft watching AI costs outpace headcount, we use some instructive real-world cautionary tales to make the case for sanctioned, observable AI deployment. This episode is a must-listen for IT leaders, security teams, AI program owners, and anyone whose job now includes the phrase “show me the ROI.”
