Massive amounts of data are being created driven by billions of sensors all around us such as cameras, smart phones, cars as well as the large amounts of data across enterprises, education systems and organizations. In the age of big data, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and deep learning deliver unprecedented insights in the massive amounts of data.
Research by Forrester called “Artificial Intelligence: What’s Possible for Enterprises in 2017” indicates that AI is finally becoming a reality and that more organizations, researchers and educational institutions are looking at its potential. The report found that “only 12% of the 391 business and technology professionals it polled are currently using AI systems. However, 58% are researching AI technologies and what it takes to support their use in the enterprise, and 39% are identifying and designing AI capacities to deploy. The report, published in November 2016, also found that 36% of respondents are educating the business or building the business case about AI’s potential.”
