AI is a transformative technology that has the potential to solve challenges that could not be addressed before, leading to massive productivity gains. But AI (and specifically Generative AI) has an accuracy problem... For large Enterprises to adopt AI, they need reliable, predictable results that solve their business challenges. Having worked in AI (Convolutional Neural Networks and now Transformer models for computer Vision problems) for over 10 years, I know first hand that accuracy is the crucial piece of the puzzle to unlock business value. When a model (or solution that uses many AI models) is 80% accurate, it is just a demo. When the system crosses 95% accuracy, something magical happens and there will be massive productivity gains delivering meaningful business results... That is the journey, we are on... It is exciting times indeed !
