The Future of Collaboration in the Artificial Intelligence Era

How humans collaborate with one another has been closely linked to technological progress. Before the invention of the telephone, we had to be in the same room to communicate in real-time – and prior to the internet, we had to be in the same building to share our designs, new ideas, or other documents. Collaboration has always been a moving target, and in modern times we shouldn't be surprised that new technological innovations are again shifting how humans work and coordinate together. Today's infographic comes to us from Schneider Electric, and it shows that humans are no longer making things using a linear approach. Instead, modern collaboration is a cyclical process with no defined start or end points – and it often involves more users and stakeholders, continuous access, and an increasingly decentralized workforce.
