We build businesses that take Cisco into new markets, new user and buyer personas. Outshift is responsible for the full product lifecycle: from ideation/research/market analysis, engineering, market launch and messaging, customer traction and customer success.
There’s no industry that won’t be disrupted by AI, and more specifically generative AI. But there is an increasing gap between the capabilities that these frontier models bring and their consumption and applicability in Enterprise use cases. Through a partnership with Venture Beat, we explored some of these challenges and how they could be overcome.

SEcurity
Image, text, video, audio – just using a Generative AI model is rife with false content, phishing, and other attack paths. And then there is the security of the pipeline itself – data leakage, masquerading, ML pipeline security.

Responsible AI
Technology will solve technology’s problems. It will solve for the complexity, for the churn, for the responsible AI framework, for the data leakage, privacy, IP and more. But for now, ensure that you’re ready for these evolutions.

Scaling AI
That entire pipeline of choosing a model, customizing it, fine-tuning it and re-tuning it quickly, and doing it constantly — because, of course, it has to be an iterative process — is crucial to get right in AI, but harder to do in the Generative AI space.
