About this event
Artificial intelligence is changing the fundamental structure of every industry, in areas ranging from finance to retail and from the government to healthcare, and more. AI Assistants are being rapidly trialled, adopted and deployed by a wide array of originations to cut costs, convert customers, capture new data points and streamline processes. They have lived on the ‘hype cycle’ for a number of years and for the first time are becoming truly ‘useable’ and efficient in what they are able to do for organisations. We take a look at the best, the worst, what’s working and what isn’t and how you can take advantage of this powerful technology. A new level of competition is emerging as organisations compete with these new digital AI technologies.
In this 45-minute presentation, you will learn:
• All AI assistants aren’t equal. Which ones you should be using and when
• How to start with selecting technology – the stacks are overwhelming
• Best practice approaches and most common oversights to avoid
• AI Assistants and Analytics
• What is the future for AI Assistants, the tech, the vendors and the consultants?
