The Winning Strategy for IA Implementation: A 90-Day Plan

87% of support teams have seen customer expectations rise, with 68% attributing this to AI. The first 90 days are essential to avoid analysis paralysis and start getting real results. The 3-phase plan covers from strategic alignment to pilot implementation and measurable expansion, avoiding common mistakes and tracking key metrics such as efficiency and revenue impact. With dedicated support and ongoing training, you will turn initial successes into a pro-IA company culture.

Congratulations on choosing to rely on us for your AI implementation journey! It means that you already know that AI is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. Your customers expect it: 87% of support teams have experienced an increase in their customers' expectations in the past year, and 68% believe that AI has directly influenced these expectations.

The first 90 days are crucial in establishing the foundation for long-term success. Based on our experience in guiding companies toward successful AI adoption, we have developed this structured plan for you who haven't even started yet.

Why a 90-Day Plan?

A 90-day period is the ideal interval to start AI adoption:

  • It is long enough to execute significant projects
  • It is short enough to maintain urgency and momentum
  • Allows you to avoid " analysis paralysis" and start reaping the benefits of AI more quickly
  • Allows for quick wins that demonstrate the tangible value of AI
Remember: the longer you wait to adopt AI, the more expensive it will become to close the gap with competitors. Delaying implementation creates a gap that widens exponentially over time. That's why our team of experts has created this quick implementation guide, designed to help your company start with the bare minimum of functional, profitable AI.

Regulating what is not created: does Europe risk technological irrelevance?

Europe attracts only one-tenth of global investment in artificial intelligence but claims to dictate global rules. This is the "Brussels Effect"-imposing regulations on a planetary scale through market power without driving innovation. The AI Act goes into effect on a staggered timetable until 2027, but multinational tech companies respond with creative evasion strategies: invoking trade secrets to avoid revealing training data, producing technically compliant but incomprehensible summaries, using self-assessment to downgrade systems from "high risk" to "minimal risk," forum shopping by choosing member states with less stringent controls. The extraterritorial copyright paradox: EU demands that OpenAI comply with European laws even for training outside Europe-principle never before seen in international law. The "dual model" emerges: limited European versions vs. advanced global versions of the same AI products. Real risk: Europe becomes "digital fortress" isolated from global innovation, with European citizens accessing inferior technologies. The Court of Justice in the credit scoring case has already rejected the "trade secrets" defense, but interpretive uncertainty remains huge-what exactly does "sufficiently detailed summary" mean? No one knows. Final unresolved question: is the EU creating an ethical third way between U.S. capitalism and Chinese state control, or simply exporting bureaucracy to an industry where it does not compete? For now: world leader in AI regulation, marginal in its development. Vaste program.

Outliers: Where Data Science Meets Success Stories.

Data science has turned the paradigm on its head: outliers are no longer "errors to be eliminated" but valuable information to be understood. A single outlier can completely distort a linear regression model-change the slope from 2 to 10-but eliminating it could mean losing the most important signal in the dataset. Machine learning introduces sophisticated tools: Isolation Forest isolates outliers by building random decision trees, Local Outlier Factor analyzes local density, Autoencoders reconstruct normal data and report what they cannot reproduce. There are global outliers (temperature -10°C in tropics), contextual outliers (spending €1,000 in poor neighborhood), collective outliers (synchronized spikes traffic network indicating attack). Parallel with Gladwell: the "10,000 hour rule" is disputed-Paul McCartney dixit "many bands have done 10,000 hours in Hamburg without success, theory not infallible." Asian math success is not genetic but cultural: Chinese number system more intuitive, rice cultivation requires constant improvement vs Western agriculture territorial expansion. Real applications: UK banks recover 18% potential losses via real-time anomaly detection, manufacturing detects microscopic defects that human inspection would miss, healthcare valid clinical trials data with 85%+ sensitivity anomaly detection. Final lesson: as data science moves from eliminating outliers to understanding them, we must see unconventional careers not as anomalies to be corrected but as valuable trajectories to be studied.
