“Deploying AI is not the same as transforming an operation,” said Mallya. “Real transformation requires organizations to redesign how work gets done, connect technology to measurable outcomes, and establish the governance and operating models needed to sustain change. Autonomize AI has built the platform and healthcare expertise required to make that transformation real. I’m excited to help our customers move AI from possibility to production at enterprise scale and accelerate time to value.”
