Today's thesis because you need this is that getting #ArtificialIntelligence right in a large organization is primarily a #communication challenge. This is especially true to the extent that your company is not primarily an #AI company and I would say it is relevant whether you expect to be building things in-house or whether you expect to be buying them. There is a tall tower of stakeholders, from individual technical contributors with backgrounds like #DataScience or #SoftwareEngineering through corporate #management and potentially all the way up to #WallStreet, that will each have slightly different visions of "AI" that won't necessarily mesh without care and empathy. If you can align this tower, the sky is the limit. If you can't it will appear to everyone that everyone else is talking about nothing... and the microeconomics textbook has scary things to say about where this leads.
