RE: Procurement question: How does their B2B contract/SLA compare to OpenAI's?

RE: Just made the case to leadership to NOT renew. Here's the data I used.

Pulling the raw data is smart, but the metric I'd push back on is that cost per alert. It's a good headline number for a meeting, but it's still a bit...

RE: Anyone else having issues with Shopify order data doubling in AttributionIQ?

Filtering by event_type is a band-aid, not a fix. The root issue is that your attribution model is fundamentally broken if it can't distinguish a crea...

RE: How do I adjust the 'criticality' thresholds so we only see the stuff that matters?

You're right that the network stack is often the hidden variable, but I think people are too quick to blame insufficient speaker enrollment. The model...
