Standardized benchmark tests often fail to reflect how well an AI performs on your specific job responsibilities. Creating a personalized evaluation workflow helps you measure output quality, cost efficiency, and failure points before switching models.

CoreWeave Senior Vice President Richard Ahlfeld explains that physical artificial intelligence deployments usually fail due to unrecorded edge cases in training data rather than poor model design. He outlines how specialized field engineers combine physical testing with synthetic generation to train robots and autonomous systems effectively. Ahlfeld also discusses guardrails for automated systems, stressing that human domain experts must approve recommendations before altering real-world equipment.
