With the prevalence of artificial intelligence (AI) in the headlines, it comes as no surprise that businesses are eager to harness this exciting and transformative technology. It is evident that those who are the first to deliver business-relevant AI will gain a significant competitive advantage. However, there is a challenge that needs to be addressed. Our perception of AI success in society is largely influenced by our experiences with consumer applications provided by large web companies. The adoption of AI in the enterprise has been relatively slow due to various challenges. Business applications involve far more complex problems and the data required to address them is less abundant. Additionally, there is a critical need for alignment of AI with relevant business processes. Furthermore, the use of AI necessitates new engineering practices for application maintenance and trust.

So, how can businesses deliver working AI applications within their organizations? Beyond Algorithms: Delivering AI for Business provides an answer to this question. Written by three experienced engineers with a wealth of AI experience (and all the scars that come with it), this book delves into the intricacies of defining, managing, engineering, and delivering end-to-end AI applications that work effectively.

This book offers a comprehensive perspective, presenting core conceptual differences between AI and traditional business applications. It introduces a new methodology that assists in prioritizing AI projects and managing risks. Furthermore, it includes practical case studies and examples, focusing on business impact and solution delivery. Technical Deep Dives and Thought Experiments are included to challenge readers' minds and occupy their weekends.

By exploring these topics, Beyond Algorithms: Delivering AI for Business empowers businesses to unlock the full potential of AI and drive innovation in their operations. Whether you are a seasoned AI professional or just starting your journey, this book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deliver working AI applications in the enterprise.
