AI Adoption at Scale

" summary

Merck claims a rapid enterprise rollout that converts tens of thousands into regular GenAI users by replacing risky public chat services with a centrally managed platform: myGPT suite powered by Langdock, launched after a March 2024 pivot from an in‑house prototype and built on a hub-and-spoke operating model that enforces compliance while keeping low friction (single company account login). Result: 25,000 monthly active users, heavy internal experimentation, and a deliberate push from personal productivity to integrated agentic workflows.
