AI, ML, IoT, and Emerging Tech

Cognitive technologies like machine learning and AI (artificial intelligence) certainly have proven to be an important part of the IoT (Internet of Things) sector because they can help make products and services smarter and, therefore, more valuable. These technologies can also help support human workers and decisionmakers and, in general, improve business operations. For this column, I am going to take a closer look into these technologies, exploring the current adoption landscape and prospects for the future, as well as discuss their business value. Some new research has come out that gives us some really interesting insight into the cognitive-tech landscape. There are also some cool examples of how companies are leveraging machine learning and AI to create value for people's lives and businesses, and I'll share an example of that as well.
