How to avoid this scenario - Gartner Predicts 30% of Generative AI Projects Will Be Abandoned After Proof of Concept By End of 2025

What is required to Turn Data Into AI Products ? - My perspectives

  • Experimentation on Different levels of data / Summary / Key-Values / Multimodal
  • Data curation / Setting up Relationships
  • Adding domain knowledge

The main reasons cited are:

  • Poor data quality
  • Inadequate risk controls
  • Escalating costs
  • Unclear business value

So, the lesson is, my perspectives are:

  • The model is not lift-and-shift — customize it for your needs. A demo that works may not be the solution you need.
  • Build your data and benchmark with your data. Do not rely on benchmarks that do not reflect your data.
  • Have an LLM cybersecurity, data governance, and guardrails in place. Do not trust the LLM until your first 100 users are happy with it.
  • Escalating costs—first, get the accuracy right, then reduce costs. You cannot achieve everything at once.
  • Unclear business value — Do not force-fit LLM use case to get a promotion. Only opt for it if it genuinely adds value.
  • If someone promises a working solution in 1 month remember it can be selling a prototype, not a production-grade solution


Keep Exploring!!!
