Supporting context
This article serves as the introduction to Kamil Banc's AI Adopters Club, a Substack publication focused on AI adoption and culture change rather than tool reviews or prompt collections. Banc's core practitioner thesis is that AI initiatives stall because organizations fail to change how teams think and work, not because of deficiencies in the technology itself. The publication operates on a two-track model: a free tier for foundational thinking on AI adoption, and a Premium tier delivering weekly workflows on Mondays and case studies with frameworks and metrics on Thursdays. For consultants and advisors, a Strategic Partner Tier adds client-facing assets such as proposals, pitch decks, white-label rights, and ROI justification models. Practitioners can apply this framing by auditing whether their own AI rollouts address judgment calls and workflow redesign, or merely deploy tools without behavioral change.
