15. Thinking through the AI problem
What are the bodies of content that I can use to help
combine to come up with for analysis?
Content
Context
Sentiment
Intent
What is the domain that the information relates to?
What lens should the information be viewed? Are there
external influences to take into account?
What is the desired outcome / hypothesis that we can
validate by doing analysis?

26. Do not underestimate
resources/time to manage (find,
source, clean, govern) datasets for
AI projects
AI projects will require a culture change,
and sometimes real surprises. Driving the
corresponding transformation will require
high level of sponsorship and
willpower to drive change.
Communicate and educate
at each step taken during the
project.
You need to build trust with
the machine!
The AI era is now!
AI is a disruption factor. It is also
a learning curve. The sooner you
get on it, the better you can
manage your own destiny as a
business.
A successful AI project can
only be built with an
integrated Business/IT
team. The best use cases are
problems that sometimes
exist since forever, but never
found a real answer.
… but data & AI techniques are
only means to an end, not the end
itself!
Think Big, Start Small : 80 % of our AI projects show relevant
and actionable results in 3 months
27. Closing thoughts from the Architect
PRO:
• Potential to realize underused data,
provide a competitive edge in your
market
• Opportunities for those who embrace
and help derive business value from
new processes
CON:
• High probability that there will need to be
changes in your processes and systems to
accommodate new information flows and
analysis opportunities.
• Some jobs may be affected more than
others
Watch:
Learn:
Unless your business is in the business of AI / ML (startup, moonshot program), hang
back a little to see how the tools and processes will mature over the next few years.
However, you should keep a close eye on this, possibly run some pilot projects to
have a short term goal in mind and to see what opportunities there are to integrate
this into your systems — this is not a question of if — it’s a question of when this will
be commonplace and table stakes.
