Looking at my analyst barometer...if 2016 was all about digital then 2017 is all about artificial intelligence. Something big is happening when scholars, analysts, CEO hot shots, and doom mongers talk it up/ talk it down all over newsfeeds and media. Some of the commentary is Elon Musk scary; some of it Steven Hawking cautionary but there is no doubt that the AI message has cut through--AI is superhot in enterprise work and for all things innovation. I recommend getting a handle on it by watching our latest Snapshot Event live from the Nordics (and I doff my hat to the Swedes by limiting the entire session to 1 hour). The session walks through AI from three perspectives: the academic view; the business view and the practitioner view (Cognizant) and it's well worth the watch. Straight off we heard how AI and automation differ.
