Most organisations now have at least one AI pilot. Far fewer have AI running in production and paying for itself. The gap is rarely the model; it is everything around it.
Start from a business metric, not a technology. A pilot that cannot say which cost, revenue or risk number it will move is hard to fund beyond the demo.
Design for production from day one: real data access, security review, monitoring and an owner in the business who will use the result every week.
Finally, measure honestly. Agree the baseline before you build, compare against it after launch, and be willing to stop projects that do not move the number.
