Is the task or assignment completely clear?
  • Is the problem you want to solve well defined?
  • Are the possible benefits clear?

If you answered No then you are at risk

If you are not sure, then you might be at risk too

Recommendations

  • Clearly define the problem and outcome you are optimizing for.
  • Assess if your AI system will be well-suited for this purpose.
  • Always discuss if there are alternative ways to solve the problem.
  • Define success! Working with individuals who may be directly affected can help you identify an appropriate way to measure success.
  • Make sure there is a stakeholder involved (product owner for instance) with enough knowledge of the business and a clear vision about what the model needs to do.
  • Did you try analytics first? In this context analytics could also offer inspiring views that can help you decide on the next steps. They can be a good source of information and are sometimes enough to solve the problem without the need of AI/ML.
