In the context of a global company, transitioning from pilot to full-scale deployment involves unique challenges related to the scope and regulatory environment. A pilot project that works well in one region, such as Europe, might not be suitable or legal in another, like Australia. This necessitates a tailored approach to deployment in different regions, which can complicate scaling efforts.

From our perspective, keeping up with the ever-evolving landscape of AI technology poses a significant challenge. In our organization, we are accustomed to technologies that remain stable over long periods, sometimes as long as 20 years. However, AI technologies evolve so rapidly that they can change before we fully understand or integrate the previous version. This rapid evolution raises concerns about whether our business partners can keep pace. Additionally, the lack of a dedicated governance committee to oversee these changes is a gap that we are currently addressing.

One significant challenge is the rapid pace of AI development. Projects that initially seem promising may quickly become outdated as new models and functionalities emerge, such as enhanced image search capabilities or the ability to add attachments. Additionally, the competitive landscape can render a product obsolete almost overnight if a superior solution is introduced. Another issue is the potential lack of understanding of all possible use cases, particularly if the initial development was too narrowly focused or did not involve key stakeholders. This can lead to a product that isn’t adaptable to broader applications. Lastly, the introduction of biases, particularly through the use of inadequate or dummy data, can fundamentally flaw a product, necessitating a return to the development phase.

If you have a full Gartner license, they have a benchmarking tool that maps out to your industry.  It was useful for my needs.
