ABOUT THE CONTENT

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is impacting our daily lives. Services such as Amazon’s Alexa and other voice technologies help us make phone calls, hear our favorite music, and keep us organized. According to PwC research, AI is projected to be the biggest commercial opportunity in today’s fast-changing global digital economy and predicts the global gross domestic product will be 14% higher in 2030 as a result of AI—the equivalent of an additional $15.7 trillion. Leading enterprises are planning and implementing AI understanding two important trends – AI is moving closer to the edge. AI architectures are using many external data sources and leveraging public cloud innovation. Our industry panel will discuss lessons learned, experiences and recommendations in an informal fashion without recordings, press, or social media hampering our exchange of knowledge.
