AI starting points and stepping stones
Laboratories considering AI-driven workflows should first identify the specific problem they aim to solve and assess if simpler coding solutions are sufficient. While out-of-the-box AI solutions from vendors offer a lower barrier to entry, laboratories must ensure these solutions align with their workflows and validate them in their own environments.
