The global Artificial Intelligence (AI) market size is expected to grow to USD 309.6 billion by 2026, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 39.7%. Yves Mulkers recently interviewed Dalith Steiger, covering the state of artificial intelligence, why technology is not needed to have bad intentions, the diversity of music and… high heels! I picked up that you will be speaking at the World AI Conference. Maybe for our audience, can you introduce yourself – what you're doing at SwissCognitive, and maybe something about your background? I feel privileged to be able to talk to you about our topic, AI. This is one of my passions.

The global Artificial Intelligence (AI) market size is expected to grow to USD 309.6 billion by 2026, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 39.7% I picked up that you will be speaking at the World AI Conference in town. Maybe for our audience, you can introduce yourself, what you're doing with this Swiss Cognitive, and what is a bit your background? I feel privileged to be able to talk to you about our topic, AI. This is one of my passions. An intro about myself, who I am in a nutshell. Born in Israel, grew up in Switzerland and one of my goals is to Switzerlize the globe. I know we're going to come to that topic later on. That's a whole lot of stuff that keeps you going. In a general way, do you have some fun facts about yourself? I like to challenge most people when they come into the show.

General AI (Artificial Intelligence) is coming closer thanks to combining neural networks, narrow AI and symbolic AI. Yves Mulkers, Data strategist and founder of 7wData talked to Wouter Denayer, Chief Technology Officer at IBM Belgium, to share his enlightening insights on where we are and where we are going with Artificial Intelligence. Join us in our chat with Wouter. Yves Mulkers Hi and welcome, today we're together with Wouter Denayer, Chief Technology Officer at IBM. Wouter, you're kind of authority in Belgium and I think outside the borders of Belgium as well on artificial intelligence. Can you tell me a bit more about what you're doing at IBM and What keeps you busy? Wouter Denayer Yeah, Yves, thank you, and thanks for having me. Of course, if you call me an authority already, I think if you call yourself an authority, then something is wrong. It's almost impossible to follow everything that's going on in AI, the progress is actually amazing. I do love to follow everything that's going on as much as possible, especially focussing on what IBM Research is doing, we can come back to that later. In my role as CTO for IBM Belgium, I communicate a lot with C-level people in our strategic clients. Sometimes global clients that really want to know what's coming, what is this AI thing. People understand more or less.
