How to transform experimental AI projects into successful products

Presented by: Meeta Dash, VP of Product at Verta
At: MLOps Salon: Building AI-Enabled Products
Have you wondered why more than half of the AI initiatives fizzle out in the pilot state? Where are the gaps - business strategy, people, process or tools?
In this talk I will talk about how product managers can help steer the ship in the right direction and increase the success rate of AI initiatives.
- How to align the teams to take a business-first approach to AI initiatives ?
- What is the optimal team structure and process so AI initiatives can adopt agile ?
- Why is a culture of experimentation complemented by the right tools and processes a must ?
- Can you strike a balance between faster product iteration, better UX, predictable releases while reducing business and ethical risks ?
I will also share my personal journey turning a fledgeling AI engineering project into a high value product. "
