Natural Language Generation: Where Does it Fit in the AI Ecosystem?

Can you name what technologies fall within the realm of artificial intelligence (AI)? According to our research report, "Outlook on Artificial Intelligence in the Enterprise", 88% of respondents claiming they do not use AI technologies went on to cite using specific solutions that rely on AI techniques. At Narrative Science, we view the AI ecosystem from a data-driven perspective. We think this perspective is important because it ultimately determines which technology is a best-fit for a business problem even if the end-results are similar. In the IIA's "Introduction to the Intelligent Systems Ecosystem", Chief Scientist Kris Hammond, states it well when he says: One of the more difficult issues associated with these emerging intelligent systems is that while each is built on a very different technological foundation, they tend to be bundled together and are often viewed as indistinguishable.
