The report examines the most compelling business use cases for artificial intelligence (AI) across six major industries and helps business leaders understand the value AI can deliver today and in the future so that they can make smarter decisions about when, where and how to deploy AI within their organizations. The report looks across all the industry-specific use cases to identify six major ways AI can create value for business: 1) Cost reduction: Applying AI and intelligent automation solutions to automate tasks that are relatively low value and often repetitive, reducing costs through improved efficiency and quality 2) Speed to execution: Reducing the time required to achieve operational and business results by minimizing latency 3) Reduced complexity: Improving understanding and decision making through analytics that are more proactive, predictive and able to see patterns in increasingly complex sources 4)Transformed engagement: Changing the way people interact with technology, enabling businesses to engage with people on human terms rather than forcing humans to engage on machine terms 5) Fueled innovation: Redefining where to play and how to win by using AI to enable innovative new products, markets and business models 6) Fortified trust: Securing a business from risks such as fraud and cyber, and improving quality and consistency while enabling greater transparency to enhance brand trust.
