Rules would suffice but ML is forced—teams then argue across ownership lines.
Machine Learning Development
ML without offline metrics turns into post-launch arguments. Clarify the boundary before choosing the build path.
From problem/data to evaluable models and inference wiring.
ML failure modes
These usually show up before a project starts—or right after a rushed launch.
Leakage inflates scores—it often surfaces only after production impact.
No baseline—iteration and local integration slow down.
Train/serve feature skew—users feel it as inconsistent data or UX.
Metrics and baselines first
Define success metrics; strong baselines; leakage checks; reproducible features; small-traffic validation. Confirm ML is needed. If yes, lock metrics, data quality and baselines—small experiments, no demo-only models.
