There is a great deal of excitement these days around “digital transformation.” Instead of being preoccupied with “transformation,” companies may be better off paying attention to their level of maturity in deploying digital technologies – and then working diligently to become more digitally mature.
Read MoreIn my role as an investor, I’ve been hearing a lot of chatter lately about datacenter-as-a-service (DCaaS), the notion that datacenters should move towards a cloud-native architecture delivered as a service and that enterprises should no longer need their own IT ops teams. DCaaS promises to separate a company not only from its physical infrastructure but from the notion of physical infrastructure itself. It’s an appealing idea. Two decades ago..
Read MoreThe process of systems integration (SI) functionally links together infrastructure, computing systems, and applications. SI can allow for economies of scale, streamlined manufacturing, and better efficiency and innovation through combined research and development. New to the systems integration toolbox are the emergence of transformative technologies and, especially, the growing capability to integrate functions due to exponential advances in computing, data analytics, and material science. These new capabilities are already having a significant impact on creating our future destinies.
Read MoreArtificial intelligence is a hot topic across the board — from enterprises looking to implement AI systems to technology companies looking to provide AI-based solutions. However, sometimes the technical and data-based complexities of AI challenge technology companies to deliver on their promises.
Read MoreAccurate, complete, and timely data has always been required for success with digital programs. This is even more the case when it comes to large, enterprise-wide digital transformations. Yet, a recent New Vantage survey reported that..
Read MoreA recent survey on Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) reported that cultural challenges, not technological ones, were the biggest hurdle to overcome around Big Data and AI initiatives. According to this 2021 survey, the vast majority of respondents — 92% of mainstream companies — continued to struggle more with cultural challenges than with technological ones.
Read MoreThe track record for transformations has been disappointing for over three decades. In 1995, Dr. John Kotter found that only 30% of transformations succeeded and it’s been pretty much that way in survey after survey ever since. A recent McKinsey survey found that digital transformations may be even more challenging.
Read MoreFor many years banks have been at the forefront of using technology to help with both front-of-house and back-of-house operations. It’s no surprise then that banks are adopting AI to help in a variety of ways.
Read MoreIn the age of innovation, as a topic of our future of work, we often envision remote work as an idealist scenario where you can achieve the ultimate work-life balance. Realistically, remote work is a conversation that needs to be explored in-depth, practiced over time and embraced by each individual of an organization.
Read MoreWhether your organization has an extensive cybersecurity initiative in the event of a crisis such as this pandemic or not, there are things that you can do now that your employees are working remotely.
You can use this opportunity to increase cybersecurity awareness across your organization.
Read MoreThese days, when you browse the internet for news on artificial intelligence, you’ll find out about new AI that just managed to do something humans do, yet far better. Present-day AI can detect cancers better than human doctors, build better AI algorithms than human developers, and beat the world champions at games like chess and Go.
Read MoreThe UK has played an important role in the history and development of AI. Alan Turing, a British mathematician, is considered to be the father of theoretical computer science and has deep roots in AI as well. In addition to crafting the foundations for modern computing, Turing envisioned the Turing test, which aims to determine a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human.
Read MoreWhen we think of human trafficking, we often think about the despondent faces of women and children who live in slums all over the world. What if human trafficking is much closer to home than we think?
Read MoreIn the latter part of the 2000s, DevOps solutions emerged as a set of practices and solutions that combines development-oriented activities (Dev) with IT operations (Ops) in order to accelerate the development cycle while maintaining efficiency in delivery and predictable, high levels of quality.
Read MoreArtificial intelligence has been around for many decades. However, In the past decade, interest and investment in AI have skyrocketed. In the past few years, companies and organizations in just about every industry and across the world are adopting a wide range of cognitive technology solutions spanning the seven patterns of AI with applications in finance, retail, automotive, healthcare, government applications and many more industries showing adoption.
Read MoreEven before modern computers became a reality, science fiction gave us a plethora of examples of artificial intelligence and smart robots in the context of outer space. From Hal in 2001: A Space Odyssey and the computer on Star Trek to C3PO and R2D2 in Star Wars and even the fantastic machines in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, it seems that AI and space go together.
Read More“Forget everything you think you know about the ancient Minoan culture,” the historian said to me at the palace gates. The story she told me on that hot, dusty day in July has since been pressing on me, like a constant drumbeat -- a reminder of why our work in Responsible AI is so so unrestricted in importance by just the demands of the here and now. Let us take you on a journey so that you can understand the very direct correlation between what archaeology can teach us about our high tech field.
Read MoreData and Database-centric Low Code/No Code tools and platforms: Database & Spreadsheet Low Code/No Code platforms, intelligent Database Management System Low Code/No Code tools, NoSQL Low Code/No Code and Citizen Data Scientist productivity tools.
Read MoreThe Church-Turing limit restricts all current computation, including quantum computers, to rational number computation. This is because quantum computer designs (still not scalable even with high parallelism), are still Turing machines, which are limited by Turing machine constraints.
Read MoreWe have already jumped into the pool of AI innovation. Just to be clear, this isn't a human inventing the AI but the human-invented AI inventing something new. There have been interesting debates on the patentability of the “machine” inventor.
