Why Enterprise AI Pilots Never Scale

In this episode of TechUnhinged, host Rabia Javeed sits down with Randeep S. Bhatia, the ex-CTO at Splash, which runs the largest music stage on Roblox. Randeep argues that AI pilots do not stall because the technology falls short; they stall because nobody gave them a metric and an end date, so they harden into permanent demos. He explains why a pilot with no date is a decision nobody admits to making, why one developer naming a station a playlist breaks AI faster than messy data does, and how a grocery receipt models the way an agent earns autonomy. He also tells the story of the AI workflow he told a legal tech company not to ship.
