Human-centred AI to realise benefits at the time of need
AI can deliver results to your business today, including improving customer experiences, augmenting your workforce and automating repetitive processes. Avanade believes that AI is the next wave of computing, a technology that will influence nearly every area of business. And generative AI – the newest generation of AI models from OpenAI and Microsoft, built on Microsoft supercomputers, and based on incredibly massive data sets – is poised to help businesses reinvent productivity, business process, human experiences and more.
Industry hype might have you believe that AI is magic. But the opportunity with generative AI is real. And category-leading innovators are harnessing rapidly-evolving AI tools to generate value. Which is why we focus on human-centered AI to help you achieve more. You can gain better understanding and interpretation of the data, apply reasoning and engage in a more natural way. The importance of the human element is not lost on businesses. Our recent research found that 85% of senior-level business and IT decision-makers agreed that in the future, companies must be able to manage both humans and machines in order to successfully deploy AI.
The right approach to realise AI benefits
Artificial intelligence is a collection of advanced technologies that allow machines to sense, comprehend and act. To succeed with AI you need:
- Talent: There is a war for AI talent, so you need to rotate your people and leverage your partners and their ecosystems.
- Data: The fundamentals of AI and the ability to become smarter with machine learning reside in your data.
- Models and knowledge: You need an advanced analytics engine and library of automation process models, prebuilt calculations and algorithms.
- Technology: Computing platforms are key for intelligent APIs, machine learning and automation in order to make AI more accessible.
