Fall Session 2 - Design and Test Your AI Workflow
About this Event
CIBA is proud to present the Discovery Foundation Applied AI Implementation Clinics Program - Fall Series, delivered in partnership with Thompson Rivers University.
From Workshop to AI Prototype
After the three workshops, participants have one week to submit a short video case (3–5 minutes) by Tuesday, December 1, outlining a business problem, their proposed AI workflow, expected benefits, and the support they need to make it happen.
A selection panel will choose five businesses to advance based on clarity of the problem, business value, feasibility, readiness and responsible use of data. These five will refine their AI Prototypes further, and one business will be selected to work with CIBA’s Flagship AI Microteam to build and implement its prototype.
Every participant walks away with an opportunity brief, a pilot outline and an implementation case, whether or not they advance.
What to bring: A laptop and one day-to-day process in your business you’d like to improve. Each two-hour session combines instruction and live demos with hands-on working time and Q&A.
Session 2 — Design and Test Your AI Workflow
TRU Campus - Brown Family House of Learning- Room HL269
Lunch included
Session Overview
Turn the selected opportunity into a manageable pilot, with appropriate tools, team responsibilities and risk controls.
- Map inputs, AI-assisted steps, human review and outputs; choose tools and identify useful automation.
- Assign team roles and address privacy, permissions, accuracy and failure points.
- Test with sample or de-identified information and record what works and what needs attention.
Working exercise and takeaway: Create a workflow map and pilot outline, then test one component or walk through a realistic example where live testing is not yet possible.
Before Workshop 3: Run a small test where feasible, gather feedback and identify unresolved assumptions. Use the November 19 office hour for troubleshooting.
