PODCAST: The Rise of Artificial Intelligence – Coming of Age

Once a figment of the imagination, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now establishing itself in our everyday lives. Organizations are now invested more than ever before.

The share of jobs requiring AI skills has also grown 4.5x since 2013. Do organizations see AI as a strategic priority to help them beat the competition in their respective industries?

My colleague Jeff Mastin and I discuss why organizations seem to be more interested in AI today as compared to years ago, focusing on the underlying reasons why.  Listen here.
