AI Pilots to Enterprise Platforms: Building Secure, Governed AI at Scale
Thursday, June 4th | 6:00 PM PT
 

Most organizations are still running AI like a science experiment — isolated pilots, disconnected tools, and governance frameworks that haven't caught up to the risk. The gap between proof-of-concept and enterprise-ready AI isn't a technology problem. It's a leadership problem.

Brett Pollak, Executive Director, Workplace Technology & Infrastructure Services at UC San Diego, is closing that gap in real time. Overseeing a $33M IT portfolio serving 100,000+ students, faculty, and staff — and reporting directly to the CIO — Pollak leads one of higher education's most ambitious AI buildouts, including TritonGPT, UC San Diego's proprietary AI assistant purpose-built for institutional scale.

In his session, "From AI Pilots to Enterprise Platforms: Building Secure, Governed AI at Scale," Pollak will draw on the TritonGPT roadmap and UC San Diego's hybrid-cloud infrastructure to address what it actually takes to move AI from experimentation to operation:

• Structuring AI governance frameworks that don't stall innovation
• Building proprietary platforms vs. deploying commercial tools — when each makes sense
• Securing AI at scale across complex, high-compliance environments
• Aligning IT leadership with institutional and business objectives
• Managing cross-functional stakeholder expectations during enterprise AI transitions
