Ali Arsanjani,
Edited, from a transcription and summary of a recent talk, in collaboration with Joel
Milag, Wow AI and Team
In this insightful session, Dr. Ali Arsanjani, Director of Cloud Partner Engineering at
Google Cloud, discussed with the audience how to leverage AI/ML throughout the
lifecycle to increase organizational maturity in the use of ML and how to add
business value as a result.

Level 1: Have the data science and machine learning goals for explicitly clarified use
Open inclassification,
cases been defined in terms of clustering, app regression, forecasting,
and recommendation AI?
Search
Level 2: Is your team consistently applying the entire life cycle for machine learning
along with different phases of data cleansing, feature store, selecting an algorithm
and training, evaluating the results, explainability and going into hyperparameter
optimization, deploying to an endpoint, monitoring the endpoint, having a pipeline
and doing it all over again?
Level 3: Do you have a documented reference for activities within the machine
learning lifecycle?
Level 4: Have you been able to automate some, if not most tasks?
Level 6: Is the team continuously use data and new learnings to improve the
machine learning process?
These are questions you need to ask yourself, your vendors, and your teams
periodically to measure and assess the process.

Reproducibility Debt
Usually, once good results are obtained, we move on but re-running experiments
with different types of data to garner similar results is extremely important.
Cultural Debt
Creating team cultures that reward the rationalization, reduction of features,
general reduction of overall complexity, improvements in reproducibility and
scalability, and monitoring to the same degree that improvements in accuracy are
valued is one of the most important factors.
Ali believed that these less visible / less popularly considered elements of hidden
technical debt are vital to enhancing and accelerating your maturity across the
AI/ML lifecycle.
6 Components of ML adoption
He then summed up the six components that are key to the adoption of ML.
1. Data Activation requires Data Lakes ingestion and Data Prep capability via Data
Prep pipeline
4. Models demand training and optimization and ultimately depositing the meta
data of the experiments into a registry
5. Models are served but need to be monitored for various types of drift or skew
6. The entire ML life cycle should be supported by data, training, and inference
(deployment and monitoring) pipelines

BigLake is a secure and governed data lake that gathers data from different clouds
and there are self-serve analytics as well as interoperability between AI and those
analytics. BigLake basically expands BigQuery and allows you to take into account
Spark, TensorFlow, Presto, or other sets of capabilities.
A few new BigLake capabilities also let you build a differentiated data platform,
such as Analytics Hub, BigQuery ML support, BigQuery Omni, and the upcoming
Cloud Data Loss Prevention profiling support and data masking & audit logging.
If Data Gravity is a key requirement and you do not want to move the tabular and/or
unstructured data, that may already be residing in say, BigQuery, BigQuery ML can
be used to run a diverse array of algorithms for classification, regression, model
operations, and time series right there from the BigQuery data warehouse. The
results can be integrated into Vertex AI Registry.
If you wish or are ok to move data, you can use the full power of Pre-trained,
AutoML or Custom training that Vertex AI offers. You can choose to use the Vertex
AI workbench to run data science experiments in python that can help you enrich
the data and put it in a place you can leverage, train, optimize and deploy models.

Dr. Arsanjani ended his keynote leaving the audience with the idea that maturity,
the ability to actualize the business benefits of AI/ML, evolves as the ability of the
organization to leverage each portion of the lifecycle and to traverse the AI/ML
digital innovation spectrum grows. By picking the best-fit tool for the part of the
lifecycle your organization is currently focused on, you can nurture, develop, scale
and operationalize AI/ML capabilities, you’ll be able to integrate these capabilities
not as siloes but as a continuous digital innovation spectrum that different teams in
your organization can traverse and derive business benefit.
