Accuracy is a lab metric. Production needs better. I've shipped enough AI systems to know this truth: a model can be 98% accurate in testing and still fail spectacularly in production. Why? Because accuracy doesn't capture reliability, explainability, or business impact. 📊 The metric I actually trust? Time to resolution for errors. How fast can the system detect when it's wrong, route to human oversight, and learn from the correction? That tells me everything about operation

Why Scaling AI Is a Data Quality Problem First, Not a Model Problem
Your model is fine. Your data is not. I've lost count of how many times I've seen teams obsess over model accuracy while ignoring the garbage going into their pipelines. Here's what 24+ years in tech has taught me: the best model in the world can't fix bad data. 📊 When I led a finance automation initiative, we reduced manual effort by 30%. The secret wasn't fancy algorithms—it was ruthlessly fixing data quality at the source. We built annotation pipelines, implemented valida
