Building Large-scale Military & Enterprise AI Quickly, Safely, and Securely

Hear Seth Clark, Head of Product at Modzy, explain how the largest Military, Civil government, and Enterprises design, build, and deploy large-scale AI projects from the lab into production in a way that is quick, safe, and secure. Topics include: the AI Pipeline; the differences between model management, Model Ops, and MLOps; what all the members of an AI team should do (and more importantly, NOT do); how the answer is not build-or-buy, but build-AND-buy; what new threats exist in an AI application and how to defend against them; as well as how to build AI systems that can explain their decisions to humans.
