AI Alone Will Not Improve Productivity - Skillsoft

While there is a lot of discussion around the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and robotic process automation (RPA), too often such conversations overlook the subject of scale and the reality that most of these trends are not technically ready for scaled out operations. Moty Fania, principle engineer for big data analytics at Intel IT, spent some time at the recent Strata conference highlighting this and stressed the importance of process as fundamental to the success of any AI project. He observed, "Developing an excellent AI model(s) that solves a business problem is essential but not sufficient. Successful AI implementation requires deep integration into business processes and the ability to continuously and rapidly deploy AI models to the production environment of a biz domain." After I heard Moty speak, I thought I'd try an experiment.
