AI Product Leader Spotlight
Making AI successful with imperfect ingredients
There is no “AI Academy” for product managers to learn this new craft, at least not yet. Until then we should learn from those who have blazed their own trail, especially those who have successfully baked AI in to products across multiple contexts.
In this event we facilitate a conversation between an expert and you, to understand what it takes to make AI successful even if your ingredients – data, tech, people, process – are imperfect. Stefania Bonà has spent 10 years bringing AI to payment products we use every day, starting at Amazon and currently at Trustly.
Online Event Highlights:
- Interactive Presentations: Gain insights from leading experts on navigating the ChatGPT hangover, understanding the criticality of data quality, and what product people need to know to leverage AI effectively.
- Engaging Discussions: Dive deep into the realities of applying AI with imperfect data, exploring strategies for enhancing your business model through better prediction, despite the inherent challenges.
- Live Q&A: Have your questions answered in real-time, enabling a deeper understanding of the practical steps towards AI integration.
Who is this for?
- Product Owners/Managers looking to enhance their products with AI
- Product organization leaders wanting to size the AI opportunity across their portfolio
- Chapter Leads in AI, R&D, and Innovation responsible for capitalizing on AI
- AI team leaders want to work better with product teams
- Operations manager wanting to go beyond ChatGPT
What can you expect to learn?
- How straightforward AI implementation can be when you already have a customer-centric process
- Why your ingredients – data, tech, people, process – will never be perfect, and what to do about it
- How product people can upskill on data & AI to overcome the “ChatGPT hangover”

“In more conversations than we can count, we find ourselves disabusing executives of their notions about what creates an AI advantage. A company needn’t aspire to be another AWS, Microsoft, Google, or Adobe…few companies outside the tech world are monetizing their own digital innovation. For them, innovation involves offering a fresh solution atop a base of digital capabilities. Competitors all have access to the same AI, yet business outcomes vary profoundly.”
– Silvio Palumbo – BCG & David Edelman – Harvard University in Harvard Business Review
