Frequently asked questions

How do you calculate ROI when using AI? Savings in time/costs plus?

ROI calculation involves quantifying the savings in time and costs, combined with any increase in revenue generated by the AI solution – minus the total cost of ownership (TCO) of the underlying models.

When should you scale your AI initiatives? After stable metrics?

Scaling an AI project should occur after establishing stable and reliable performance metrics, alongside demonstrable demand for the solution's capabilities.

Is it necessary to have a dedicated knowledge base? Yes, if...

Maintaining a comprehensive knowledge base is essential when it serves as a key differentiator – providing unique sources, facilitating ongoing maintenance, and ensuring continuous updates to the AI system.

How can you reduce AI costs? Caching, batching, ?

Strategies for reducing AI costs include caching frequently accessed data, batching processing tasks to optimize resource utilization, implementing usage quotas, distilling models for efficiency, and profiling model performance.
