Artificial Intelligence Decoded 7 Artificial Intelligence: Preparing organizations and their people for drastic change Introduction by Capgemini Research Institute History is littered with examples of how new reactions, with our analysis showing that negative technologies create anxiety about job losses, and media coverage far exceeds the positive (see Figure Artificial Intelligence is no exception. Anxiety levels 1). A fog of anxiety and ill-informed opinion is around the technology colors perceptions and obscuring the risks and opportunities of AI.

Note: Sentiment (volume of positive/negative social media messages) as measured through headlines on Artificial Intelligence and related topics from top media publications in the mentioned time period. 8 Artificial Intelligence Decoded To cut through the fog, this edition of the Digital corporates, tech startups, academics, venture Transformation Review presents a more nuanced capitalists, futurists, and technology vendors. We perspective on AI. To understand and explain how also launched extensive global research surveys to AI could benefit industry and society, we conducted examine AI and a current hot topic in the industry – wide-ranging research. We spoke to leaders voice assistants. and experts from a broad spectrum: traditional Artificial Intelligence Decoded 9 10 Artificial Intelligence Decoded Leader and expert interviews: from Oxford University to Google I am not worried about future generations, but more about us – the generation that is undergoing the shift. This will be traumatic, but more because of the pace rather than the nature of the phenomenon. Society needs to help those who will feel the brunt of the drastic changes.” Professor Luciano Floridi, Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford Artificial Intelligence Decoded 11 Large organizations Michael Natusch, Atif Rafiq, Prudential, Volvo Cars, believes that AI can help explains how AI is helping employees work to the best of Volvo, both internally and their capabilities, which is why he with customers. calls AI ‘Augmented Intelligence’.

AI is something that should be pervasive. Over the last two years, we’ve gone from around a couple hundred projects at Google using AI to almost 7,500 projects.” Rajen Sheth, Senior Director, Product Management, Google Capgemini perspective: global research In ‘Turning AI into concrete value: the successful AI used to be a very specialized area of academic implementers’ toolkit’, we share findings from a research that was only discussed in specialist circles. global study of nearly 1,000 organizations that are But as AI has moved from research lab to mainstream already implementing AI at scale.

  • The AI Path: Past, Present & Future
    Digital Business The AI Path: Past, Present and Future Just as computing and the World-Wide Web progressed through stages of maturity on the way to full acceptance, artificial intelligence is destined to do the same. By understanding the comparable challenges that were overcome and benefits achieved with earlier technologies, organizations can better see today where AI is heading and ensure that they are properly positioned to reap its full value. October 2019 Digital Business Executive Summary Computing power is something that we now take for granted — if we even think about it at all. In fact, this computing capacity came about following decades of astounding leaps of ingenious engineering that provided a fertile ground for business and social innovations to follow. Our most basic tasks in ordering goods, using smartphones and switching TV channels with our voice now rely on computing power scarcely imaginable even a few decades ago. The lessons of how this took hold and became foundational are relevant in the context of today’s coming-of-age megatrend — AI. Another example is the internet and the web, which allowed social and network connections to grow atop this prior breakthrough in computing power. The earlier rise of distributed and personal computing power, by itself, did not change society or business; such change required connections, networking, and a shift to a more collaborative and sharing mindset. The web’s protocols reached a critical mass of acceptance and created the nucleus that attracted new joiners and made today’s internet-based and web services possible. Similarly, there are lessons in how barriers to adoption were overcome in the web’s march to success that are relevant to AI.

The fishing port is the largest in Indonesia, home to more than 1,200 industrial-scale fishing vessels. Indonesia is the second largest marine fisheries producer in the world, and there is not enough port space to accommodate the country’s fishing boats. URI is involved in numerous projects and partnerships with Indonesia, most of which relate to fisheries, marine affairs, and sustainable development. Sutyawan explains that this photo depicts the strength of the country’s fishing fleet, while also illustrating the problem of increasing global exploitation of fisheries resources. This spring, Sutyawan will defend his dissertation, which focuses on marine fisheries governance in Indonesia.
