What you'll learn

Spot the seven ways an AI feature dies after launch

Most AI features stall before adoption. We cover all seven failure modes and the early signals to watch out for.

Ship AI features that earn renewals

What separates the AI features customers pay to keep (and attracts new customers) from the ones that get switched off.

Run the checks that catch a dead feature early

Questions to ask about economics, trust, and ownership before engineering spends a sprint.

Keep your thinking hat on, its your biggest asset

AI makes strong judgment faster and weak judgment worse. Learn to use it to sharpen your thinking, not replace it.

Why this topic matters

If your company already has a product and is now adding AI to it, the odds are against you (and the product's success). Most of these features ship to a press release and die within a quarter, and the cause is rarely the model. It's economics nobody modeled, trust nobody protected, and decisions nobody owned. The leaders who get this right are the ones who saw the failure modes coming. This session gives you the seven to watch for.
