Designing AI Programs: How and where to focus resources

Recorded - available as on demand webcast

AI has been getting its fair share of inflated and unrealistic expectations due to a lack of broad understanding of this wide-ranging space by software vendors and customers.  Software tools can be extremely powerful, however the services, infrastructure, data quality, architecture, talent and methodologies to fully deploy in the enterprise are frequently lacking.  This four-part series by Earley Information Science and Pandata will explore a number of issues that continue to plague AI projects and reduce the likelihood of success.  The sessions will provide actionable steps using proven processes to improve AI program outcomes.

In the final session the topic is "what's next?"

Many organizations have begun their AI journey and need to bring capabilities to the next level. There may be disconnected approaches and decentralized decision making.  Lessons and successful approaches are not leveraged across siloes or repurposed and built upon.  In other cases, projects may have shown value in a pilot, but are being held back from full deployments by various constraints.   

This final session in our four-part series provides several approaches for:

  • Determining priorities for your efforts
  • Installing metrics to monitor progress and impact
  • Structuring governance and decision making
  • Engaging in appropriate risk and change management

Be sure to check out all sessions in this series:

The Critical Element of Foundational Architecture

Recently I chaired the Artificial Intelligence Accelerator Institute Conference in San Jose – in the heart of Silicon Valley.  The event has brought together industry innovators from both large and small organizations, providing a wide range of perspectives. For example, the CEO of AI and ML testing startup of Kolena, Mohamed Elgendy and Srujana Kaddevarmuth, Senior Director, Data & ML Engineering, Customer Products, Walmart Global Tech discussed productization of AI solutions and ways to increase adoption. I especially liked the idea of a model catalogue from which data scientists can retrieve data sets and machine learning models that others have built rather than starting from scratch.
