    Model Marketplace: An Executive Playbook to Catalog, Certify, and Monetize Reusable Models

    Enterprises waste time, money, and trust when every team rebuilds similar models or reuses uncertified artifacts. This 20‑minute executive monologue opens with a concise vignette where duplicated churn-detection models produced inconsistent customer outcomes and ballooning costs. Mirko then delivers a non-technical playbook for building an internal Model Marketplace: how to inventory candidate models, set certification gates (performance, lineage, data-provenance, SLOs), design internal pricing or showback, and create a lightweight catalog and governance board to approve reuse. The episode includes pragmatic artifacts executives can commission immediately—catalog taxonomy, certification checklist, contract snippets for internal SLAs, and a 30–90 day pilot to certify the top 10 reuse candidates. Listeners get board-ready KPIs (reuse rate, cost-saved-per-model, certification latency) and negotiation language to align product, platform, procurement, and legal. CTA: download the Model Marketplace Starter Kit at datascience.show/model-marketplace. That’s the difference between models and value.

    The Label Economy: An Executive Playbook to Treat Labeling as a Strategic Asset

    High-quality labels are the unsung input that determines whether models deliver predictable business outcomes—or unpredictable risk. This 20‑minute executive monologue opens with a concise vignette where poor labeling inflated a fraud model’s false positives and cost the business millions in churn. Mirko then delivers a non-technical, decision-first playbook: how to treat labeling as a product (ownership, SLAs, unit economics), practical sourcing options (in-house teams, managed vendors, verified crowd, synthetic augmentation), measurable label-quality SLIs and sampling protocols executives can read, procurement clauses to guarantee provenance and remediation, and a simple budgeting rubric to convert label needs into funded line items. Listeners receive board-ready KPIs (label accuracy variance, labeling velocity, parity vs baseline, detection-to-fix latency), and a prioritized 30–90 day checklist to inventory high-impact labeling lanes, run a quality audit, and secure funding. Practical artifacts and negotiation language so leaders stop losing model value to invisible label debt. CTA: download the Label Economy Playbook at datascience.show/label-economy.

    Adoption Heatmaps: An Executive Playbook to Map Friction and Prioritize AI Rollouts

    Large technical proofs-of-concept fail not for lack of accuracy but because they collide with organizational friction: unclear decision owners, brittle data flows, regulatory constraints, and operational bottlenecks. This 20-minute executive monologue opens with a concise vignette where a successful pilot stalled because three business units couldn’t agree on ownership. Mirko then delivers a practical playbook: a compact Adoption Heatmap (visibility, data readiness, decision ownership, regulatory exposure, value potential), a simple scoring rubric to convert heat into priority tiers, and a lightweight discovery protocol that executives can run in 72 hours. Listeners get board-ready signals (friction concentration, go/no-go thresholds, expected time-to-value), a prioritized 30–90 day pilot to unblock the top lane, and negotiation language for procurement and legal.

    Human-in-the-Loop at Scale: An Executive Playbook to Fund, Staff, and Govern Human Oversight for High‑Stakes AI

    High-stakes AI still needs human judgment: content moderation, high-risk approvals, exception review, and safety triage all require reliable human oversight. Yet most organizations treat human review as ad hoc, underfunded, and invisible to risk reporting. This 20‑minute executive monologue gives leaders a compact, non-technical playbook to make HITL a measurable service: define service tiers and SLAs for reviewers, cost and staffing models (in-house, blended, vendor), error-budget accounting, fatigue and quality controls, training and certification, procurement clauses for reviewer obligations and confidentiality, and reporting metrics that belong on the executive dashboard. Mirko opens with a short vignette where missing reviewer SLAs caused a regulatory complaint and lost customers, then lays out a 30–90 day checklist executives can use to inventory high-impact HITL flows, budget remediation, and assign accountable owners. Practical, decision-focused guidance so oversight protects customers without collapsing velocity. CTA: download the Human‑in‑the‑Loop Playbook at datascience.show/hitl.

    Regulatory Sandboxes for AI: An Executive Playbook to Run Auditable Pilot Programs

    A vivid 20-minute executive primer that turns the abstract promise of a regulatory sandbox into executable actions and ready-to-use artifacts. It opens with a short, specific vignette where a fintech pilot surfaced biased pricing for a customer cohort, drew regulator inquiry, and threatened a major account—setting clear stakes for leaders. Mirko then walks a decision-first blueprint: choosing sandbox candidates, writing regulator-friendly briefs, negotiating scoped permissions, drafting concise customer consent language, instrumenting guardrail telemetry, and building rollback gates. Listeners get two micro-examples inside the episode: a 2-line regulator brief template and a 1-line customer consent blurb, plus a downloadable kit of templates including a pilot brief, metrics CSV, and sample contract clauses. By the end, executives have board-ready metrics, a prioritized 30–90 day checklist, and a one-page incident playbook to rehearse before any external launch.

  6. Privacy Budget: An Executive Playbook for Managing Data Exposure in Enterprise AI

    Privacy Budget: An Executive Playbook for Managing Data Exposure in Enterprise AI

    Enterprises routinely trade velocity for data exposure without an executive-level ledger to decide what to protect, monitor, or accept. In this 20-minute monologue Mirko introduces the 'Privacy Budget'—a simple, durable governance construct that treats data exposure like a spendable resource. He opens with a concise vignette where untracked customer data access created regulatory callbacks and brand erosion, then presents a non-technical playbook: how to quantify exposure (sensitivity-weighted surface area), set budget caps per product line, risk-rank projects by downstream exposure and business value, and choose mitigations (minimization, masking, synthetic augmentation, contractual limits). Listeners receive board-ready metrics (exposure velocity, budget burn rate, high-risk cohort count), a prioritized 30–90 day checklist to inventory top exposures, and procurement/legal language to bake privacy budgets into vendor contracts. Practical, decision-focused guidance so executives can fund privacy controls where they matter most without halting innovation.

    Fairness Debt: An Executive Playbook to Detect, Prioritize, and Remediate Unfair AI

    AI systems accrue 'fairness debt'—undetected disparate impacts, buried trade-offs, and shadow remediation costs that compound as models scale. In this 20‑minute executive monologue Mirko opens with a concise vignette where a lending model’s hidden bias produced regulatory scrutiny and a costly remediation program, then lays out a pragmatic, non-technical playbook: rapid detection signals (complaint heatmaps, cohort lift divergence, downstream outcome gaps), a prioritization rubric that converts harms into business and legal exposure, remedial lanes (monitor, reweight, redesign, product exclusion), and funding/contract levers to ensure fixes are timely and measurable. Listeners receive board-ready metrics to report fairness posture, a 30–90 day audit checklist to surface high-impact fairness debt, and negotiation language for procurement and legal to demand remediation SLAs from vendors. Practical and decision-focused for leaders who must reduce harm while preserving strategic momentum. CTA: download the Fairness Debt Audit Toolkit at datascience.show/fairness.

    Metric Debt: An Executive Playbook to Audit, Align, and Retire Metrics That Break AI

    Organizations accumulate metric debt: dozens of overlapping KPIs, shifting definitions, and undocumented downstream consumers that cause model drift, perverse incentives, and repeated incidents. In this 20-minute monologue Mirko opens with a concise vignette where competing definitions of “active customer” led models to optimize for the wrong cohort and triggered costly product moves. He then presents a pragmatic, non-technical playbook for leaders: how to inventory high-impact metrics quickly, detect semantic conflicts and hidden consumers, prioritize which metrics to standardize or retire, assign clear ownership and governance, and introduce simple change controls so models and business processes stay aligned. Listeners get board-ready signals to measure metric health (definition divergence, concentration risk, downstream break rate), a prioritized 30–90 day audit checklist, and negotiation language to align product, finance, and data teams. Practical, immediately actionable guidance for executives who must stop metric entropy from eroding AI value. CTA: download the Metric Debt Audit Toolkit at datascience.show/metric-debt.
