Merging Humans with AI and Machine Learning Systems by Kevin Benedict, Senior Analyst, Cognizant Technology Solutions

Artificial intelligence and machine learning systems are made up of code and algorithms, and as such, they work as fast as computers can process them. Often this means massive amounts of learning can be accomplished every second without stop 24x7x365. Code doesn't need to take weekends off, holidays, or sick time. It can recognize complex patterns, potentials, areas of improvement, and problems in real-time or digital-time. Given these available computing capabilities and speeds, what are executives to do with AI and machine learning, when we live and operate in relatively slow human-time, and work within organizations that work at an even slower pace of organizational-time.
