What impact will Artificial Intelligence (AI) have on people and their workplace? 

Satish Kumar Boguda: Technology is advancing at a frenetic pace with the increasing numbers of people, systems and smart products getting connected to the Internet. Furthermore, with the advent of smart phones, we currently have much more power in our pockets than that of the mid-sized company what it combinedly had in the last decade of the 20th century. It is apparent that what we saw a few decades ago is not quite the same today, and it is possible what we are perceiving currently may not be the same tomorrow. In the era of digital transformation, Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is perhaps the center of gravity for human creativity that really goes well beyond the imagination where sky is the limit for bringing in the 21st century innovative advancements which already are shaping the future of numerous industrial sectors. The fact of the matter is that, the idea behind having to bring in AGI is to perform monotonous, traumatic and potentially dangerous jobs with much less human interaction that tends to increase efficiency and eliminates risks such that people could operate more productively and have a better quality of life. In other words, it is “Man + Machine” in together, simplifying life on this planet. Moreover, these days collaboration with AGI is becoming part of daily routine, which has an impact on human civilization to stay upright of jobs being lost in and out of various business domains, whereby man-made redundant operations undertaken by workers are supplanted with autonomous robots propelled through AGI. At the same time, this also brings in a new paradigm shift from old fashioned ways of handling the task to many more innovative ways of providing solutions which results in great opportunities among companies and workers leading to increased demand for skilled manpower all throughout the next decade.

What are some examples of benefits that organizations can gain from analysts of big data? 

Satish Kumar Boguda: In a strategic competitive era of Big Data, the winning factors even for the billion-dollar companies, is the competence to accumulate, process and visualize the massive amounts of data being generated in order to understand the real-time trend lines and behavioral patterns of consumer preferences through keeping up pace with the ever-changing customer demands. This accumulated timely information offers the business executives with the right edge to make any strategic decisions which ultimately helps global enterprises continue to deliver high-quality products and services that eventually turns up the dial on the profitability to achieve sustainable value proposition for the organization.

For example: be it from maximizing the accuracy of palliative diagnostics in the healthcare industry or progressively forecasting insurance premiums depending on the driving habits, or empowering financial institutions to avoid unauthorized transactions even before they occur by predicting customer spending habits. Driven by business results and high value potential, the benefits of big data analysis lead to informed business movements with a comprehensive understanding of industry trends, cost effective, faster decision-making, enhanced customer service and productivity gains.
