AI-native infrastructure is key to successful business integration, not bolt-on solutions

The article argues that successful AI integration in businesses hinges on adopting an "AI-native infrastructure" rather than simply bolting AI onto existing systems. AI-native infrastructure is designed around AI's capabilities, encompassing five layers: interfaces, agents and business logic, models and evaluation, data and integrations, and infrastructure and observability. This approach contrasts with bolt-on AI, which often fails due to a lack of ground truth, defined rules, proper measurement, and clear ownership. The author emphasizes that AI-native design inherently includes governance, referencing the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and suggests starting with one process to build out all five layers before scaling.

    <p>Most companies' first AI project looks the same: a chatbot is added to the website, a few prompts are wired to an API, and a demo impresses everyone in the room. Six months later it is quietly switched off.</p> <p>The model was rarely the problem. The problem was that AI was <…
