Jonáš SvětlíkHow to roll out AI so it does not fizzle out
Most company AI enthusiasm fizzles out within a month. Here is a path from a small pilot to a routine that sticks - and that actually delivers something.
Why it usually fizzles out
Three reasons: enthusiasm with no concrete goal, too much scope at once, and nobody accountable. The AI gets bought, played with for a while, and then goes to sleep.
A process that works
- Find one concrete problemthat hurts and keeps coming back.
- Run a small pilot - one process, a few weeks.
- Measure the benefit (time saved, speed, fewer mistakes).
- Get people involved - show them, train them, listen to them.
- Turn it into routine, and only then add the next one.
Where to start
In routine that eats time and needs no brainpower - retyping data, enquiries, reports (see automation course). A quick win gets a team on board far better than a grand vision.
What to watch out for
Do not roll out AI for the sake of AI. Always solve a concrete problem - otherwise it becomes an expensive toy.
AI in a company does not fail on the technology. It fails because it is launched too big and with no goal. Start small and measurable.
