At GS Lab | GAVS, our executive team frequently meets with clients across various industries, ranging from mid-market to large enterprises. Over the past 6-8 months, a common theme has emerged in these discussions: the desire to unleash the power of AI, ML, and Generative AI (GenAI). However, they struggle to answer three crucial questions:
- How can I drive business value with AI, ML, and GenAI?
- What risks beyond data security and privacy exist, and how can I prepare for them?
- How can we ensure the quality output of GenAI models?
Having developed hundreds of high-tech software products—many of which you might be using right now—and AI, ML, and GenAI-powered solutions for dozens of customers, we have created a framework to help you find the answers early, allowing you to prioritize effectively. This framework not only saves time but also resources, as AI and ML projects tend to be costly to develop and maintain. Our approach, now distilled into the framework we call AI Assembly, is specifically designed to avert the high risk of failure, considering that an alarming 60% to 85% of AI/ML models never make it to production.
Introducing AI Assembly: A Structured Approach
AI Assembly is meticulously developed to address common pitfalls in AI/ML projects through its three distinct phases: Invest, Develop, and Harvest. This structured methodology ensures that enterprises not only conceptualize innovative AI solutions but also achieve seamless operational integration. By adopting AI Assembly, businesses can navigate the complexities of AI/ML adoption with strategic alignment and measurable business impact.
- Invest Phase: This phase begins with collaboration among business users, data scientists, and IT teams. Through discovery workshops, viable AI/ML use cases are identified. Pilot projects are then launched using real data to forecast potential success and refine implementation strategies. The phase also includes developing a tailored MLOps strategy and conducting a comprehensive risk assessment to align stakeholder expectations and ensure regulatory compliance.
- Develop Phase: Essential data is collected, cleaned, and prepared for in-depth analysis. The process involves exploratory data analysis, feature engineering, and model training with a focus on explainability and peak performance. Successful models are then integrated into the existing production environment, ensuring that stakeholders can apply insights effectively in decision-making.
- Harvest Phase: Continuous monitoring and maintenance of AI models is key. AI Assembly incorporates robust governance and compliance processes to ensure model reliability and trust. Stakeholder training on MLOps and explainable AI (XAI) best practices is provided, alongside clear communication of model capabilities and limitations, fostering user confidence and adoption.
Why AI Assembly Stands Out
AI Assembly’s unique value proposition lies in its low-cost, low-risk, high-impact approach that cuts upfront costs by eliminating use cases unlikely to work, fixing or eliminating blind spots in data, fostering collaboration with business, and setting realistic expectations upfront for both the Develop and Harvest phases. In addition, our team of senior data scientists brings their experience to significantly reduce the likelihood of missteps.
This framework ensures effective communication across all stakeholders, enhancing user adoption and making AI implementation economically viable and strategically beneficial.
- Accelerated Time to Market: Reduce deployment timelines from months to weeks.
- Lower Risk of Failure: Validate use cases with business owners and users before full-scale implementation.
- Cost Savings: Optimize resource allocation for maximum return on investment.
- Trust and Adoption: Maintain data accuracy and transparency through comprehensive data management.
- Competitive Advantage: Continuously optimize models to meet dynamic business needs.
Additionally, our extensive experience has led us to develop several reusable software modules, from data ingestion and cleansing to visualization. These modules accelerate the development process and ensure robust, scalable solutions the first time. We also address challenges in Generative AI, such as hallucinations, by rigorously evaluating quality between versions and mitigating risks of data exposure.
