Reduce model development and validation time from 6 months to 6 weeks
Watch now
Model validation is a bottleneck in your AI/ML workflow, delaying production and frustrating builders, validators, and business stakeholders. What if you could collapse six months of work into just six weeks?
In part one of this series, we get to the heart of what's slowing you down. We unpack the disconnect between data scientists, IT, and business leaders and explore how traditional, manual processes lead to "recreation hell" and prolonged approval cycles.
You'll learn:
- Why traditional validation methods don’t scale with today’s AI demands
- How leading teams are collapsing 6 months of work into 6 weeks
- Ways to resolve the tension between innovation and governance
- How to align your builders, validators, and IT teams into one efficient validation machine
Then join us in Part Two: How Domino accelerates AI/ML validation at scale where we'll show you a live example of an automated, collaborative approach that makes this a reality.

Dylan Storey
Senior director, data science services
I am a scientifically minded leader with a background that includes microbial food safety research and a genome science PhD. I enable companies to build and maintain organizations and platforms for the capture and organization of data so that they may make better decisions based on evidence. My data work experience has been focused on empowering data-driven decision making and expanding data capabilities through training, technology, and process improvement. I have built high-performing teams that consistently deliver the highest throughput without burnout or churn, and I emphasize leadership by example and with empathy. I spent nearly a decade leveraging high performance computing to analyze and manage large, complex data sets in my academic research. My professional interests include process and decision automation through machine learning and common sense, software development, data engineering/architecture, and reproducible research. I earned my PhD from University of Tennessee and completed both my BS and MS at Cal State Fresno.
