Stephen Karafiath is a Senior Vice President of AI Solutions Architecture at Talbot West. Colleagues describe them as "Stephen is a genius at solving real world enterprise problems with AI, bridging the gap between the business and technical by speaking both languages fluently, as well as finding ways that AI can unlock new capabilities. His expertise spans the technical and business realms and he has extensive experience in both. Not only does he have a deep understanding of AI architectures and technologies, but he brings a wealth of Fortune 500 experience doing deep discovery of pain points and finding the right technical solutions for those. From discovery through development and deployment, he gets the entire life-cycle of a solution deployment.
