iTWire - Artificial intelligence adoption in Asia Pacific is showing more maturity: study

Nearly twice as many companies have now initiated their AI journey in 2020 compared to 2019, and those that have already started are showing more AI maturity, experimenting less, and executing more repeatedly with coordination, according to an IDC study sponsored by Dataiku. The study, IDC InfoBrief on APAC AI maturity, highlights AI adoption in Asia Pacific, comparing strategies, capabilities, and practices to accelerate delivery. In one section of the study, the IDC InfoBrief – Artificial Intelligence Practices That Deliver Results, reveals the impact of global health crisis on technology investments and advancement across the region. Dataiku says that the growing maturity in AI is further illustrated by the significance of processes (e.g AI governance, MLOps) that ensure systematic execution and continuous improvement of AI systems. "The development of AI in Asia Pacific is continuing to gather pace," declares IDC Asia Pacific associate vice president, analytics, big data, and artificial intelligence Dr Chris Marshall, and one of the authors of the InfoBrief.
