What role do developers play in your organization's AI journey? - IBM IT Infrastructure Blog

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly being adopted by organizations of all sizes and yielding impressive results, transforming businesses and industries globally. While senior executives, managers and senior IT architects are often catalysts for change, it is the developers who are deciding which specific products and technologies individual companies will use on their journey to AI innovation. Interestingly, while many AI projects get started following executive mandates, often it is the AI developers and data scientists who shepherd new and innovative AI projects along in the organization. AI developers and data scientists aren't as motivated by executive mandates as they are by the combination of experimentation, the desire to proactively satisfy new client demands, and of course by the fun realized in delivering new and innovative AI solutions. In many cases, it's the AI developers and data scientists who also can quickly establish which specific AI tools and algorithms will immediately help an organization solve business problems.
