Recommendation

In the age of AI, non-technical business leaders can’t afford to stay on the sidelines. They must learn to work knowledgeably with their IT teams to establish and implement a successful AI strategy. Sol Rashidi, an AI deployment veteran who helped launch IBM’s Watson — one of the earliest AI applications — is here to help. Rashidi outlines everything you need to do on both technical and managerial levels to deploy AI, from uncovering your “why,” to building your team, to making your AI responsible. As AI transforms everything from agriculture to HR, the time to be proactive is now.

Summary

Implementing AI within your company is not an all-or-nothing proposition.

Preparing to launch an AI project requires you to find a balance between your organization’s established protocols and the need to adapt to changing times.

Deploy AI successfully by doing the following:

  1. “Ask ‘why?’”  Reflect on why you want to deploy AI. Is it to streamline business operations before selling to a private equity firm or to stay competitive in a challenging environment? Discuss your why with your team to find alignment and avoid confusion.
  2. Develop your AI strategy  Depending on your business’s current capabilities, you may use an “efficiency strategy” — doing what’s right with minimal waste; an “effectiveness strategy” — reaching your desired outcome perfectly; a “productivity strategy” — maximizing output while tolerating inaccuracies; an “expert strategy” — solving specific problems with a team of domain experts; or a “growth strategy” — boosting external growth such as social media traffic or market share.
