I don't want to brag but Hectiq AI shipped 4 major projects in production just in the last months. An end-to-end AI-based imaging pipeline for Celestron, a state-of-the-art forecasting and irrigation scheduling model for Hortau, a predictive platform for Fruit D'Or and a major update of the Diplôme avant la Médaille platform. All of them are running in production and bringing real value for the end user. I'm really proud of the team that worked really hard on those projects. Shipping AI in the real world is HARD and there are almost infinite ways to enter big rabbit holes and never get out. The RAND Corporation just published an interesting report on the concerning high failure rate of AI projects. Here's a quote: "By some estimates, more than 80 percent of AI projects fail—twice the rate of failure for information technology projects that do not involve AI." That estimate doesn't surprise me at all. The number is pretty much what I would have guessed from our own observations. Some proportion of Hectiq's clients approached us after having some bad experiences in the past with their internal AI projects. Reviewing those projects and rebooting them on more solid ground gave us a unique perspective on how a project can go wrong. The issues mentioned in the report are the usual suspects: unrealistic expectations of management, lack of data, immature technologies, etc. Adding to this our own observation: a lot of inexperienced teams just don't have the right intuition on what can and can't be implemented effectively in a real production setup. Planning, designing, and shipping AI projects requires walking a thin line between pushing innovation really hard AND making sure those projects will ship on time and bring real value to the user. If you're curious about what Hectiq AI can do for your company, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Reference: https://lnkd.in/eVmJsnr3

A few months ago, our client Celestron released their new product, the Celestron Origin telescope. Celestron Origin is an intelligent, all-in-one home observatory that captures stunning views of faint, deep-sky celestial objects and delivers them to your phone or tablet. We've been watching users all across the world taking awesome images all summer long with the Celestron Origin, and people just love it! Hectiq AI team designed and developed the AI-based imaging pipeline powering the telescope. Last month, Celestron asked us to give a quick "behind the scenes" talk about the AI technology deployed on the telescope so that they can share it with the users. Here's the talk: https://lnkd.in/eTFzM2iK If you're curious about the product or simply want to know what kind of projects Hectiq AI can do for your company, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We'd be happy to discuss how our AI expertise can benefit your business and create innovative solutions tailored to your needs.

Last week, Hectiq AI was invited to give a talk at the NEAIC conference in New York to present the AI-based imaging technology that we have developed for our client, Celestron. After years of effort, it was so much fun to share the results of our work with this audience. During this technical talk, we took a deep dive into the details of the various AI models that power the Celestron Origin imaging pipeline. We also had a great opportunity to receive some real feedback from the community. Shipping hardware is hard! Working with Celestron provided a unique opportunity for us to showcase how we can deploy AI technology in a practical, product-oriented environment. Stay tuned, we are going to share more details about this project soon in a complete case study.

I’ll be in NYC this week to meet Hectiq.AI clients. I still have some availability Friday PM. Feel free to DM me if you want to grab a coffee and chat about AI.

Our AI technology at CES 2024 ! Celestron just unveiled their brand new product at CES 2024. The Celestron Origin, their most technologically advanced astronomical offering yet, is a high end AI-based fully automated telescope. Hectiq AI is extremely proud to have worked alongside Celestron on this project. Years into the making, the Hectiq AI team put their heart and soul into this project to ensure the Celestron Origin would have the absolute best AI technology out there, and the result shows: the images from the Celestron Origin are simply amazing. Hectiq AI developed a unique AI technology dedicated to image processing of astronomical images. We worked closely with Celestron to extract the most of it and integrate it at the core of their new product. We have been testing the Celestron Origin for months now and we are convinced the novice and more seasoned astrophotographers will love it ! https://lnkd.in/eWAx8QV7 Notre technologie IA au CES 2024 !
