Despite impressive performance in publications, many AI models fail when deployed in real-world settings. A key reason is poor or misleading validation. This talk explores common pitfalls in validating AI systems, especially the misuse of performance metrics, and shows how they can create false confidence. Practical recommendations will be offered to guide more robust and trustworthy validation practices, aimed at supporting the safe and effective integration of AI into real-world workflows.
