Budgets, buy-in, and business - starting up an AI red team requires more than domain specific expertise. Building internal support from senior executives, justifying additional resources, and outlining governance and metrics of success are all crucial components of laying a strong foundation for this dynamic domain. Getting to the point of executing novel attacks on machine learning systems often requires laying out this unappreciated but crucial groundwork. Adding to the complexity is partnering across business units with established Responsible AI teams, Data Scientists, and Machine Learning engineers.

This talk will take attendees through the start of building an AI red team, including shoring organizational support, highlighting milestones for early success, and strategies for laying a solid foundation for internal AI system test and evaluation. Audiences can expect to walk away with resources, strategies, tips, and quick wins related to starting a new AI red team capability.
