The Levels of Doing AI 7wData

When it comes to new technologies like Artificial Intelligence, the pure technology is only a small aspect required to putting it to use. Still, given the hype that exists currently, one can easily loose sight of the big picture as announcements of new algorithms, toolboxes, or cloud services fight for grabbing our attention as the next game changer. The field itself can also feel quite overwhelming at times, as it is always expanding and keeping track of all the developments seems impossible for one individual to do. There was a time when a single individual could cover all the bits and pieces, but given the explosive expansion that this field has been going through these past years, I think it is becoming more and more challenging. So this is my attempt to draw a bigger picture of how different roles and levels fit together to "do AI" in an enterprise setting.
