When you talk to any business today and ask them about their top strategic IT goals using artificial intelligence and machine learning to help the business be “better” is often right at the top. It is not a surprise, is it? Everywhere we turn the press, vendors, industry analysts are all discussing how AI and ML are an essential part of your technology strategy. Vendors seemingly dare not bring a solution to the market that is not somehow using intelligence to ensure the product delivers the very best experience and they are keen to tell you about it.
But not all in the AI garden is necessarily rosy, there are still many, including some high-profile, incidents of major AI/ML projects going bad, with millions of $’s spent for little or no return. Why is that? What does it mean for AI in the enterprise now and in the future?
