From AI pilot to production: what breaks when moving beyond a demo

Why prototypes succeed quickly while production AI requires latency controls, fallback behaviour, evaluation harnesses and integration into real software workflows.

Core Thesis
Production AI vs Demos

The Prototype Illusion

Demos assume clean inputs, patient users, and zero concurrent load. Production breaks on cost, latency drift, and non-deterministic edge cases.

Deterministic Wrapping

Wrap probabilistic model outputs in strict schema validation, semantic guardrails, and automated fallback loops.

Continuous Evaluation

Benchmark golden datasets on every commit to measure faithfulness, relevance, and latency budgets.
