Dresner Advisory Services - Blog - Is Artificial Intelligence the Future of Business Intelligence?

There is a lot of buzz these days on artificial intelligence (AI) in business intelligence products. At a recent tweetchat of my #BIWisdom group of users, vendors and consultants, a participant asked: Is AI becoming a part of everything we do, the way analytics have been added to apps of all shapes and sizes across the business and personal space? Although companies tend to overreact to emerging technologies, AI is not a new technology. One of the tweetchat participants commented that AI is crossing a chasm, either in awareness or approach and that perhaps its evolution to this point is due to the prevalence of data scientists. Another member of the group agreed, tweeting that the data scientists craze has helped more organizations embrace machine learning and AI to get deeper insights.
