From Pilot to Production: Building AI That Actually Sticks
Let's have a practical conversation about moving AI from promising experiments to real-world use. This session will focus on what it takes to build systems that do more than impress in a demo, they need to hold up in production, fit into existing workflows, and deliver results people can trust.
Our panelists bring real-world AI experience from the front lines — Louie Celiberti (co-founder of GAIN and AI-FinServ expert), John Adams (Privacy & AI Risk, Airbnb), and Garrett Wang (Co-founder, Cerbrec). The conversation will be moderated by Harjot Bambra, Co-founder of GAIN and CEO of CreativeBitsAI.
We will explore the key decisions that shape successful AI implementation, from setting the right foundation to avoiding common rollout pitfalls. Whether you are working on your first AI deployment or trying to improve something already in motion, this session is designed to offer clear, actionable insight into building AI that actually sticks.
