From Wow to How – The AI Grapefruit Moment

AI is great. There are plenty of ideas and PoCs – but the reality at Deutsche Bahn is complex: restructuring, cost-cutting, staff reductions. Innovation is under pressure to deliver efficiency. In this dilemma, a solution like GrapefruiT could help – a GPT-based prototype designed to check general IT applications for architectural compliance. Not a buzzword bot, but a standards-compliant validation tool. If this approach proves successful, AI could be integrated into DB’s largest IT transformation in a standardized, efficient, and sustainable way – not as an exception, but as the rule.
