New-age technologies like Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics are causing a significant digital transformation in many industries.
Almost every enterprise experiencing digital disruption is trying to leverage such technologies.
Analytics and AI coupled with cloud enterprise software have provided a collective, explorative and focused way of handling data.
In fact, repetitive jobs that were previously done by humans are now accomplished using AI whereas machine learning-powered AI tools are useful in giving insights and detecting patterns.
Machine learning capabilities have dramatically changed how organizations conduct business.
AI robots have overtaken the role of performing repetitive tasks like checking invoices.
Machine learning has also enabled industries to reach new efficiency levels.
Aside from paving the way for new strategies and digital models, these tools are changing how enterprises conduct business.
For instance, IBM Watson’s supercomputer, cannot only process data at 67 million pages per second but also convert the data into actionable information.
Here are some six areas that have significantly witnessed growing digital technology intervention as follows:
1. Research
AI-powered virtual assistants like SIRI, Cortana, and Alexa have made locating of reports, reviews and white papers much simpler.
2. Repetitive tasks
mundane tasks like scheduling meetings at a time that is convenient for all workers can be executed through AI software and tools easily. In fact, anyone can operate these tools to perform such tasks since no specific skills are required.
3. Data Entry
AI assistants and tools have eliminated the resources and time used in performing tasks like taking notes and filling out forms. Notes from each meeting are logged into the system automatically for easy access.
