How can you bring AI into your business? What do we tell the boss? There seems to be a budget, a sponsor, a PM, but no direction?
Ask the five golden questions including: what must we solve this year, what happens to you if we don't, what have we tried already, what happens to the organization if not successful, are you open to hearing how we can do this in a new way?
Some ideas:
- Understand the business case - strategic
- Understand the use case - theater
- Understand the user value at the desk/field - tactical
Sound familiar? This is how software is properly sold. AI is software with a lot more stuff needed around it.
Engineering lifecycle, enterprise and program architecture and models, agile/requirements integrated approach, change management with streaming, global configuration management, test/quality management, task/project/program/portfolio management, publishing management, project reference architectures...what? You don't have these things yet?
AI must take a step back an reacquire "systems engineering" ISO 15288 rigor and acquire the People/Dedicated Expert support, Process/Procedures, Technology/Platforms, and Information/Data, PPTI plus!
What about hiring data scientists and giving them all the open-source tools they need and hoping for the best after a year and $5M?
What will you receive in strategic business benefits?
How will you scale this environment?
Who will you replace these people with as they leave (jumping ship every 1-2 years)?
How about using IBM ELM and IBM watsonx to orchestrate the business case analysis, systems thinking, collaborative development, and safe and precise deployment of AI models whether, NLP, ML, Deep Learning, or generative?
The business case for a systems engineering AI approach is clear. Dramatically faster, more cost-efficient, precision delivery to the business, sustainable, scalable with higher workforce retention.
What could you do?
Determine total business case elements: ROI and Time to Market, B.E., absolute gains in business metrics, and workforce attraction.
