Enterprise AI is not just AI deployed in a large company. It specifically refers to AI built with enterprise requirements in mind: security controls, role-based access, auditability, integration with existing enterprise systems, support for private data, high availability, and governance frameworks.
A manufacturing company that deploys an AI platform running on their private cloud, integrated with their ERP and production systems, logging every agent action, and restricting data access by role and department — is running enterprise AI. The technology may be similar to what powers consumer applications; the operational and governance requirements are fundamentally different.
