AI was mentioned briefly on this call in two contexts: once by outgoing CEO Vicki Hollub in prepared remarks as a future capability to be combined with OXY's data and technical foundation to optimize development and performance, and once by incoming CEO Richard Jackson in Q&A as a technology being deployed for workforce efficiency across disciplines. Neither mention was quantified or tied to specific products, partners, or financial outcomes. AI is framed as a supporting tool for operational excellence rather than a strategic priority or revenue driver.
