How do you diffuse AI into the real world? — Varun Shenoy, Long Lake

AI Engineer

Summary

El presentador Varun Shenoy de Long Lake aborda el desafío de desplegar la IA en el mundo real, más allá de los modelos mejorados. Compara la adopción de la IA con la difusión de la electricidad, señalando que lleva tiempo y requiere una integración profunda en los procesos existentes. Long Lake adopta un enfoque único, adquiriendo y operando negocios de servicios en lugar de vender software, para integrar directamente la IA. Destacan tres lecciones clave: evolucionar de co-pilotos a co-trabajadores de IA, aprovechar datos del mundo real no disponibles en internet, y crear bucles de aprendizaje continuo dentro de las empresas. Subrayan la importancia del co-diseño extremo de software y servicio, que implica presencia física y colaboración directa con los empleados para superar la resistencia al cambio y lograr una adopción exitosa.
