- The inference imperative: Why running AI is harder than building it
Enterprises have made significant progress in building artificial intelligence capabilities. Access to models, tools, and platforms has expanded rapidly, lowering the barrier to entry for experimentation. Yet many organizations are discovering that building AI is only the first step. Running it at scale is where the real challenge begins. The difficulty is not in creating models, but in operationalizing them. As AI moves from pilot to production, it must integrate into complex enterprise environments. These environments include fragmented data systems, legacy infrastructure, and distributed workflows that were not designed to support AI-driven execution. What works in a controlled experiment often breaks down under real-world conditions. Data is one of the most significant constraints. AI systems rely on consistent, high-quality, and context-rich data. In most enterprises, data is spread across multiple platforms and lacks a unified structure. Without a shared understanding of what dat
