\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAs the scope and velocity of the artificial intelligence (AI) market expands, it can be challenging for suppliers and adopters alike to keep up. Dynamics or developments in one sector or technology can influence another; opportunities for multi-disciplinary collaboration or risk mitigation are coalescing; the very definition of digital transformation is evolving. In the age of colossal data and rapidly shifting customer expectations, companies must navigate the hype, adopt new capabilities and adapt their strategies, all while proving efficiencies and new revenue.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIn Tractica\u2019s analysis of more than 200 AI use cases across 29 industries, a number of overarching themes emerged, illustrating critical dynamics to watch across the broader AI market.

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAll AI falls into three macro categories: Big Data, vision, and language. Although most think AI is driven by Big Data analytics, larger growth areas are capabilities having to do with vision and language perception capabilities, which will feed longer-term growth and strong AI.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The ability to process data more quickly and intelligently across systems, leveraging hardware, sensors, and cameras, and digitizing language itself marks the next era of organizational transformation.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI is shorthand for a combination of technologies: Use cases most often consist of multiple types of AI applied or configured in conjunction with one another and other technologies. Some examples of these combinations include machine learning, computer vision, and sensors; or deep learning and natural language processing (NLP).\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI can be overt and visible or implicit and invisible:\u00a0For end users, AI interactions like robotics or autonomously moving machines are obvious, even tangible; but AI can also support Big Data analysis, real-time responses, systems management, and many other invisible means of processing data.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI-driven personalization and operations automation will become interconnected:\u00a0Advanced AI deployments will be marked by the ability to infuse both user-facing services and interactions with back-end or enterprise process and supply chain optimization; for example, in retail, financial services, energy, and healthcare.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

While social media bots have effectively passed for millions of Twitter or Facebook users, neither robots nor chatbots are very close to disguising their code-based composition.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI\u2019s manifestation will shift alongside other technology macrotrends: AI is not the only show in town; numerous other technologies will both leverage and influence AI\u2019s development, adoption, and regulation. Trending technologies include the Internet of Things (IoT), augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), cameras, blockchain, renewable energy, genomics, three-dimensional (3D) printing, etc.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI is an extension of brand interactions:\u00a0As more companies deploy AI, specifically virtual agents to power consumer-facing functions, services, products, and touchpoints, brands must balance unprecedented opportunities for personalization with significant risk of failure, faux pas, or backlash.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI is alluring, particularly in hyper-competitive markets: It is not just greater automation and operational efficiencies that AI suppliers promise adopters, it is the ability to illuminate \u201chidden patterns\u201d and big \u201cdark\u201d unstructured data sets, to simulate scenarios for decision-making, and enable altogether new products. Beware the many ways AI is oversold.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI promises both diverse benefits and diverse challenges. Across use cases, profound opportunities lie in forecasting, empirical decision-making, operations automation, product optimization, new business models, greater access to services, targeted services, enhanced user experiences, and even improved environmental and public health. Simultaneously, AI poses urgent challenges: data integrity, re-skilling workforces, diverse ethical uncertainties, privacy concerns, unchartered legal and regulatory questions or standards, and the explainability and accountability of deep neural networks, among others.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAI will have a complex relationship with humans that will change over time: While certain jobs will become automated, AI is more often poised to augment human labor and decision-making. Longer-term, many applications will be designed to empower humans with non-human capabilities, memory, experiences, and knowledge. Many ethical, philosophical, cultural, societal, and business norms will be forced into re-assessment.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
