Scaling generative AI in enterprise: Insights from the energy sector (AIM127)

Scaling Generative AI in the Enterprise Landscape

Overview

  • The presentation discusses the aspects of scaling generative AI in the Enterprise landscape, based on the speaker's team's experiences over the past 18-24 months.
  • The key highlights include:
    • The rapid adoption of generative AI, with 100 million users in 2 months, compared to other technologies.
    • The increasing adoption of generative AI in the Enterprise landscape, with 65% of enterprises using it in some form or fashion in the last 18-24 months.
    • The higher rate of moving generative AI proofs-of-concept (POCs) to production, compared to traditional AI solutions.
    • The need for a strategic approach to scaling generative AI in the Enterprise, focusing on productivity, value delivery, and adoption.

Winning in the Enterprise Landscape

To successfully implement and scale generative AI solutions in the Enterprise, the presentation highlights the following key aspects:

Vision and Alignment

  • Aligning the generative AI vision with the organization's goals and strategy to deliver value.
  • Identifying opportunities and risks, and analyzing the potential impact.
  • Establishing the right operating model, including competency and technology infrastructure.

Use Case Prioritization

  • Understanding the science and technology behind generative AI.
  • Aligning use cases with organizational goals and strategy.
  • Considering factors like feasibility, strategic value, business buy-in, learning opportunities, and alignment with flagship projects.

Organizational Structure

  • Establishing a Center of Excellence (CoE) to manage the intricacies of the technology.
  • Grouping use cases into different categories, such as software engineering, customer experience, knowledge assistants, and complex use cases.
  • Leveraging a "Future Lab" to explore and test different options.
  • Collaborating with partners to share best practices and identify successful use cases.

Scaling Considerations

The presentation outlines key considerations for scaling generative AI solutions in the Enterprise:

Solution Design and Implementation

  • Ensuring the use case is a good fit for the business and technologically feasible.
  • Verifying the availability and curation of required data and documents.
  • Addressing change management, KPIs, and legal/ethical implications.

SDLC Approach

  • Modifying the traditional software development lifecycle to accommodate the unique aspects of generative AI, such as prompt engineering and iterative testing.
  • Prioritizing pilot testing with a larger user group, rather than relying solely on user acceptance testing.
  • Considering a phased rollout approach based on factors like region or language.

Enterprise Knowledge Library

  • Implementing a centralized, reusable Enterprise Knowledge Library to leverage common components (like chunking) across multiple use cases.
  • Enabling faster rollout of new use cases by reusing the established infrastructure and user experience.

Scalable Architecture

  • Designing a scalable architecture with core services, guard rails, and AI services, orchestrated to serve the enterprise applications.
  • Leveraging scalable technologies, such as Kubernetes, to enable efficient and flexible deployment.

Conclusion

The presentation emphasizes the need for a strategic and structured approach to scaling generative AI in the Enterprise, focusing on aligning with organizational goals, prioritizing use cases, establishing the right organizational structure, and implementing a scalable solution design and architecture.
