The worldwide Artificial Intelligence market is projected to be $169 Billion US dollars by 2025. Beyond that, productivity gains by businesses using AI are projected to be over a trillion US dollars. However, AI remains a mystery to many businesses, who are fed regularly with news articles of AI prowess but little practical information about how to get started and derive value from AI in their particular real-world context.
In this talk, we cover common AI myths and practical AI realities. How much of the hype is real or even relevant to an actual business? Which industries are benefiting most from AI today? Which AI business initiatives succeed and which fail, and why? What have companies who have tried AI learned about what they need to do to be successful? How can a team get started with AI and deliver a successful AI project that delivers Return On Investment (ROI) and benefits the parent company? By answering these questions, we hope to provide business leaders with the tools they need to separate the hype from reality and put their organizations on a path to benefit from the global AI trend.
