Vixxo’s Jim McCarthy Defines How Initial Use Cases Can Evolve for Long-Term Benefits

In this AI Agent & Copilot moment, excerpted from the “Co-Creating Agents and Copilots with Vixxo” session, Jim McCarthy, COO, Vixxo, talks about where VITA first started, its potential to evolve beyond its initial use case, and measuring the outcome to demonstrate value to the board.

Key Takeaways

• Initial vision: When first investing in AI and VITA, it was as a strategic growth initiative and marketing effort. They also believed it would have long-term tangible benefits on the bottom line.
• Small use case, high impact: The idea for VITA came from a technician in the field using ChatGPT. He loaded a technical troubleshooting guide into the platform and that grew into a bigger idea to improve technician proficiency. While VITA is a small use case, it has the potential to have high impact that can evolve.
• Demonstrating value: The value proposition is at the individual user level but they still have to demonstrate the value to the board. This is something developers must consider as they introduce AI innovations across an organization.
