ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Since its founding, CAN has been a leader in helping organizations understand how data can change their organizations. So it came as no surprise when the usage of LLMs began to rise in 2022, we were already building them, deploying them, using them, and teaching others how to integrate them into their processes. Since then, CAN really has become Omaha (and its surrounding Community)’s Premier AI builder and trainer.
We now:
- Build them
- Are the Leading Subject Matter Experts on how to use them
- Teach others how to build them
- Teach others (through speaking) how to use them.
WHAT THAT MEANS FOR YOU
WE CAN…
If you want to build a custom AI (or just a custom implementation of an AI), we know how to do that.
This step isn’t easy, and usually is not an off-the-shelf solution like promised by a hundred vendors. If you are buying software, you aren’t “leveling up” in the hierarchy of data science, you are simply buying software with AI, and that is not the same thing. Leveling up always requires new thoughts and processes to be implemented into the hierarchy.
It usually is a carefully navigated, mostly custom implementation of philosophy.
If you want us to be your entire AI team, we can, and are, doing that.
If you want to use AI to automate an extremely labor intensive part of your process (the best use case of AI), CAN can/has done that too.
If you want to take your company from the ML phase of the Data Hierarchy to AI, automated recommendations to automated decision making, we can help guide you through the very necessary discussions at a leadership level you should be having.
Those discussions (data quality, data leadership, data projects (especially the first one), data ownership, data flow, data dissemination, data security)–the last being one everyone forgets to have–are very important to success. Miss even one, or start with the wrong project could lead to implosion of the whole movement.
WE CAN…

We have a real world, AI Engineer certification coming in the academy. No, this isn’t the lame prompt engineering cert we see colleges offer (that we actually teach for free), this is a “How to implement AI’s into your business” class that we use to train our own consultants.
WE CAN DO…

Whatever your need, we are experts at these conversations and projects.
WHY IT’S IMPORTANT nOT TO SKIP STEPS
While many try and skip the previous level and go from prescriptive and predictive data to AI (or even worse, go from BI to AI), it does not work at the enterprise level. Please do not do this. While it seems like you are skipping steps, shortening time, and saving money, this isn’t true at all…This is due to the fact that in the previous levels you build up trust in the data and the recommendations it gives you.
Without this step, your organization will question everything the AI does, especially when it is against conventional thinking and worse, the question undermines the whole process. It will get bogged down in politics. It will get its funding reallocated when the projects don’t hit key KPIs, and there is not a small chance your job will be in question.
