We are data company that works with other companies to help them build AI solutions. We are a blend of data scientists and data engineers and that makes us question from different angles how next big AI module will be integrated in your platform. We have pushed more then dozen AI solution in production over past few years. In this presentation I will share our experience working with various clients on AI solutions. We will give you a list of the most common AI pitfalls that prevent AI solutions to end in production.
