I recently read a book called Crucial Conversations. In the chapter called “Move to Action,” the authors describe four methods for decision-making. Command. Also known as the “executive decision.” This is when an authority or delegate makes a unilateral decision. This is appropriate when the decision must be driven primarily by the executive’s unique insight into the business environment, context or constraints.

There’s a common belief in every industry that innovation is limited to the realm of research and development or technological advances. Companies often go to any lengths to develop their R&D department to foster innovation to stay successful in their industry. However, what drives the prized attribute of innovation in almost every company is not just R&D or its leaders but its employees.

In today’s technological landscape, new ideas can be more than worth their weight in gold. We don’t need to look further than ubiquitous products that are an integral part of our lives today; they got their start as a novel projects at companies - Netflix’s decision to branch out into online streaming instead of DVD rentals, Apple’s decision to invest in the smartphone market, the Facebook news feed - these are just a few examples of new ideas that led companies to pursue projects that paid off

Before there is something new to see, there is just a good idea worthy of a prototype. And before there can be good ideas there are a whole flock of bad ones. And until you have enough self confidence to have bad ideas, there is only the status quo. Creating something from nothing is difficult. New things are new because they are different than the status quo.

We are all selling something. Talking with a customer? You’re selling, of course. Meeting with a business partner to consider staffing changes? You’re selling. Have you ever tried to sell someone on helping you with an idea or tried to sell the CFO on funding your team’s project? All sorts of factors can enter into a decision on whether to buy a certain product or support a particular idea.

Me & AI: Turing exposed us to AI almost 69 years ago, the notion that a machine can think and process like a human. Clearly decades have gone by and we have not realized the full potential of AI and we are still a long ways away from Generalized AI. AI has gone through a serious winter and now is blooming into its fullest shape. But the journey has been super interesting and now at the verge of reaching a critical peak, why?

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.
