Despite continued doubts over AI hype, it's clear that real-world deployments are demonstrating that AI can deliver measurable value across different sectors. Cutting costs, boosting productivity, and enabling smarter decisions are all potential benefits of AI, both generative and otherwise. Yet the most successful implementations share something in common: they start with a clear business challenge, not a fascination with technology for its own sake.
I'm six months pregnant and horribly overwhelmed, so I've enlisted the help of a local gardener to tackle the more pernicious intruders (such as green alkanet, which leaves my ankles feeling bitten whenever I hang out the washing, and some of the many robinia saplings that have appeared from the neighbour's great big, beautiful tree) while leaving the good stuff behind. Then, in the patches that open up, I'll be sowing green manure.
