AI-Native Organisations Run on Skills: How to Structure and Scale Them — Imad Touil, QuantumBlack
Imad Touil from QuantumBlack argues that AI organizations should be built around "skills" — reusable building blocks that perform specific tasks.
The problem is that most organizations rebuild the same skills repeatedly without sharing or maintaining them centrally, creating technical debt. His solution is a central catalog with metadata, versioning, ownership, and access control — inspired by how organizations manage microservices. He warns that without structure, skills become a security crisis, since they contain code that can introduce vulnerabilities from public sources.
