Scaling AI responsibly

Building and deploying AI models is not easy. Here are five important things to consider when scaling AI.

  1. Scaling complex systems is hard, so be humble and realistic about the challenges and mistakes that are likely to occur. Don’t position AI as the obvious and guaranteed path.
  2. Realize these systems are not intelligent humans, so be sure to hold humans accountable for mistakes AI makes.
  3. Incorporate a multi-stakeholder development, deployment, and lifecycle governance approach with both technical and non-technical experts.
  4. Recognize the immaturity of operationalizing machine learning and the engineering talent often leading these efforts. Foster a supportive and collaborative atmosphere that complements your junior talent with people who have experienced when things go wrong or not as planned. 
  5. While AI might be new technology, many existing departments, skills, and experiences can contribute towards a successful outcome. Leverage existing teams and expertises as you approach new projects, but do not reinvent the wheel.
