Fintech AI deployment nearly paid out a Tesla claim for a Camry

A QA lead and AI deployment lead at a fintech/insurtech company shares war stories from rolling out AI across departments: shifting requirements, internal process disputes, rushed deadlines, and AI outputs needing constant babysitting — including a near-miss where the system almost processed a Camry claim at Tesla payout rates. They're collecting community experiences on failed deployments, especially ones that failed due to company-specific knowledge, process exceptions, or human factors, and which departments (engineering, HR, ops, legal) are hardest to implement AI in. The author is considering a B2B play based on these lessons.
