The five senses of Artificial Intelligence Blog post

I believe that there is a misconception that Artificial Intelligence is - or will be - a single piece of technology that should be bolted onto a business process to make it'smart' and/or "independent" from human intervention. My experience to date is that the answer is more complex and more interesting. Rather than a single solution, the real "intelligence" is in how a set of technologies are combined to create a solution. It is similar to our perception of human intelligence – this isn't built on a single element, it's a combination of senses, experiences, and knowledge. I looked at a variety of solutions that are deemed to display artificial intelligence and concluded that they had 5 attributes in common based on a fusion of smart processes and intelligent automation.
