Data veracity, citizen AI and other tech to transform businesses

TECHNOLOGY is here, now, and it's changing the world around us faster than ever before. C-suite executives, manager, and executives are trying to understand what the world will look like in the near future and how to tailor their business and strategies to keep ahead of the curve. Accenture, through its new Technology Vision 2018 report, attempts to bring clarity and provide some direction to the industry. Here's what they have to say about the trends that are shaping life, society, and business: Citizen AI, extended reality, data veracity, frictionless business, and the Internet of Thinking are five new technology trends that companies can leverage to build intelligent enterprises and create new opportunities for themselves. The consulting giant insists that AI is more than a program, that it's becoming a citizen and must be'raised' responsibly – calling it Citizen AI to make it more human-like.
