Production AI
AI doesn't fail in pilots. It fails in production: costs explode without TCO discipline, ownership fractures across silos, and "deployment" is mistaken for operational readiness. What looked like success under controlled conditions collapses under real users, real data volumes, and real scrutiny.
Production AI provides the discipline that makes pilots scalable: capital-efficiency frameworks, operating models that industrialise delivery, and engineering practices that survive production reality without heroics or costly rebuilds.
