AI technology adoption: What's holding us back?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) sits alongside Blockchain as one of the most talked about tech trends of 2017. Just like Blockchain it has its poster children too. Where Blockchain has Bitcoin, AI boasts Amazon's Alexa, IBM's Watson and Salesforce's Einstein, to name just a few. All have demonstrated impressive cognitive powers, from telling users the weather or developing bespoke recipes, to helping to prevent cybercrime. Despite this, there is a notable gap between the headlines grabbing usage from vendors and the real-world adoption of machine and deep learning, and AI within organisations.
