A Gooder AI case study: profiting on machine learning
The biggest hurdle for data science teams isn't building the model; it's proving its dollar value. This presentation shows how a dental group could translate a no-show prediction model into a clear business case worth $$$
It's about shifting the conversation from abstract metrics to tangible ROI.
Henry Castellanos is a data scientist extraordinaire. He goes beyond establishing a strong technical performance for his ML models to also maximizing their business value. Let this sink in: Most data scientists don't do that – most ML projects don't plan and sell predictive AI deployment according to the the explicit business value.
Interestingly, Henry points out that using Gooder AI (www.gooder.ai) to do this even bucks up his own confidence in his models and their business value.
Listen to Henry's presentation to see exactly how to bridge the gap from ML to real-world value.

Predictive AI Usually Fails Because It’s Not Usually Valuated (article)
In this episode, listen to a narration of Eric Siegel's article in Forbes:
Predictive AI Usually Fails Because It’s Not Usually Valuated
Most predictive AI deployments are scrubbed. Why? They didn't forecast the potential value in business terms like profit or savings.

Eric Siegel covers why machine learning is the most important, most potent, and most misunderstood technology. And did I mention most important?
Yup, it’s the most important – yet most new ML projects fail to deliver value. This podcast will help you:
- Make sure machine learning is effective and valuable
- Catch common machine learning oversights
- Understand ethical pitfalls – concretely
- Sniff out all the ”artificial intelligence” malarky
This podcast is for both data scientists and business leaders of all kinds – such as executives, directors, line of business managers, and consultants – who are involved in or affected by the deployment of machine learning.
To get machine learning to work, both the tech and business sides must make an effort to reach across wide chasm.
