Artificial Intelligence is a significant development in the technological landscape, and it is poised to be a veritable game-changer for all concerned. Given globalization and the winner-take-all market dynamics, there is a “superstar” effect at play in most markets, where a select few companies capture a lion’s share of the market, as well as the profit. Given this environment, Analytics goes from becoming a “good to have” to a “must have” if organizations are to take this opportunity to leverage the power of artificial intelligence and other adjacent technologies in an impactful manner.
