The inevitable ascendance of artificial intelligence with mobile - The MSP Hub

When Watson answered the final question to win "Jeopardy!" in 2011, voice recognition and artificial intelligence software were just making their large consumer debut on mobile devices. At the start, these capabilities were engaging, interesting and even exciting, but sometimes more as a parlor game than a deeply functional application. Yet they've continued to improve at an accelerating rate and now demand our serious attention as productivity tools. We are now half a decade on, and cognitive computing is making its presence felt at a deeply functional business level -- not just at the gateway of the journey on our devices, but deep within the industry-process level. For instance, cognitive computing is having a real impact at the clinical-process level for healthcare, which was featured specifically in a segment on artificial intelligence on "60 Minutes."
