Part 2/12:
Many companies have invested heavily—sometimes billions of dollars—in LLM technologies, recruiting top talent, acquiring licenses, and developing custom workflows. Despite these investments, the realized benefits often fall short because transitioning from a proof-of-concept (POC) or minimal viable product (MVP) to a robust, scalable enterprise solution is non-trivial.
At its core, success hinges not just on choosing an impressive model but on ensuring it integrates seamlessly into the broader IT infrastructure, performs reliably at scale, and aligns with business needs. The challenge is that many LLM solutions are built for experimental settings and lack the enterprise readiness required for consistent, large-scale use.
