AI Strategy: Core Concepts

AI Strategy Checklist

  • Define the Goal: What business problem will AI solve?
  • Set the Scope: Clearly define the boundaries of your AI initiative.
  • Measure the Baseline: What are your current performance metrics?
  • List Your Options: Brainstorm at least 2-3 potential AI solutions.
  • Weigh the Criteria: What matters more? Cost, speed to market, or long-term value?
  • Assign an Owner: Who is responsible for the project’s success?
  • Schedule a Review: Set a date to check on progress.

Common Pitfalls to Avoid

  • Chasing Hype: Don’t adopt AI just because it’s trendy. Focus on real business value.
  • Using Bad Data: Your AI is only as good as the data it’s trained on. Ensure data quality first.
  • Ignoring Stakeholders: Keep everyone in the loop. Misalignment will sink your project.
  • Analysis Paralysis: Don’t get stuck debating forever. Make a decision and move forward. This framework is for action, not endless analysis.
