Challenge in justifying the ROI..

CIO5 years ago

We've consistently increased spending in this area. But one thing we started working on last year was engaging the broader IT organization in AI. So we had Amazon come in and host classes on AI/ML that engaged both IT staff, and our business (citizen developer) teams. We ran a contest using Amazon's Deep Racer -- just to get people to become familiar with the tools.

My ultimate goal is that AI/ML won't be something only one team does, but it will be a tool applied (where necessary) across all teams. We'll still have experts, but hopefully in a COE model, not as the only people using the tools/technology.
