How business can clear a path for artificial general intelligence - DataScienceCentral.com

While apps and processes were where the rubber met the road, data was ephemeral. Data was something staffers ETLed into data warehouses and generated reports from, or something the spreadsheet jockeys worked with. Most of a CIO s budget was spent on apps (particularly application suites) and the labor and supporting networking and security infrastructure to manage those apps. In the late 2000s, and early 2010s, the focus shifted more to mobile apps.
