An AI workflow is the end-to-end sequence used to turn a problem and its data into a functioning artificial intelligence system. Depending on the application, it may include data collection, cleaning, labeling, model selection, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and feedback. Generative AI workflows can also add retrieval, prompt construction, tool calls, guardrails, and human approval steps. Mapping the workflow makes dependencies and failure points visible: poor inputs can undermine a strong model, while missing monitoring can allow quality to decline unnoticed. Well-designed workflows define ownership, measurable acceptance criteria, data-handling rules, and fallback behavior for cases the system cannot handle safely.
An unsuccessful Amazon AI project reportedly spent $1.8 million on model tokens and ran 860% over budget before the problem was found five months later.
More than 1,200 employees from leading AI companies are asking the U.S. government to help create international mechanisms that could slow automated AI development if capabilities begin advancing faster than society can evaluate or control.
