It was a pleasure appearing on "Secure Talk" with Justin Beals, who led us in a wonderful discussion navigating the real meaning of "#AI" and differentiating the hype from the feasible value.

Your AI model can be 95% accurate and still be too dangerous to deploy.

"my P doom is zero."

If an AI agent needs human oversight for its riskiest decisions, should we consider that a failure of autonomy or the smarter business model?

Most #frauddetection gets deployed at crude, arbitrarily chosen thresholds that actively hemorrhage millions. Here's how interactive stress-testing fixes that.

My book "The AI Playbook" just dropped in paperback!

UPS shipped it. FICO shipped it. Why isn’t your #ML shipping? ML represents the biggest tech shift of our time, but 80%+ of projects die in the lab. The book reverse-engineers what actually works.

Attempts to meet AI's hype-up expectations are thwarted. #GenAI systems – made with LLMs – often don’t achieve the reliability needed to deploy

Why should companies invest at least as much in #predictive AI as #genAI?

How do metrics like precision, recall, accuracy fail to demonstrate financial returns?

Why is my P(doom) is 0?

It was my pleasure appearing on the Ignite podcast with host and accomplished VC Brian Bell.

[Eric Siegel @predictanalytic]

Data teams, stop building #MLmodels that never ship. Stakeholders, stop funding science projects.

Get those predictive decision-making systems deployed.

My book, "The AI Playbook," presents the gold-standard, six-step framework for running predictive AI projects successfully.

It was a pleasure appearing on "Speak to an Agent." We explored my love/hate with #Jev: 1) our shared great admiration for its offering and how it has made #predictiveAI deservingly hot again, and 0) the intense slickness of its marketing

https://t.co/VHTaNZQr3G

Listen to the latest episode of "The Dr. Data Show," in which I narrates my article:

#Jev Fever: #PredictiveAI Is Superhot Again

A new breed of models has rejuvenated predictive AI. But successful deployment demands a new business-value playbook.

https://t.co/zoyen4UnSz

[Eric Siegel @predictanalytic]

AI users are pouncing on the new predictive capabilities of #Jev and its competitors. But to make money with Jev, you must also "valuate" it for your project.

https://t.co/TJkb3tNDbq

[Eric Siegel @predictanalytic]

Let's discuss the two “wows” of AI: impressive demos vs. deployment. We rarely get to the second wow, for either #predictiveAI or #generativeAI.

It was a pleasure appearing on Digital Disruption with Geoff Nielson. Check it out: https://t.co/757Dp11IG8

A new breed of models has rejuvenated #predictiveAI. But successful deployment demands a new business-value playbook.

A new industry-darling model called #Jev has caught on like wildfire...

On The AI Exchange podcast, I claimed that AI is overvalued by a factor of 10-20, and did my best to back that up! We also discussed #AGI, the difference between #predictiveAI and #generativeAI, and much more. It was a pleasure.

Don't Let #GenAI's Glitz Distract From #PredictiveAI’s Low-Hanging Fruit

Predictive AI remains as economically important as ever, and its emerging role in making genAI reliable further expands its importance.
