Deploying AI requires acknowledging AI will come from everywhere

The idea that AI is solely a responsibility of data science teams and specialized tech groups is a dated one. The evolution of both technology and culture means AI will continue to come from all parts of the business and in a variety of formats. In addition to more traditional AI inputs, business units are integrating their own best-of-breed AI solutions, creating a decentralized AI trend within the organization.

The most effective AI for today’s organizations will be a combination of existing applications with added AI features, net-new AI-packaged software and enterprise-crafted AI. In this new world, the role of IT and other AI leaders becomes creating a system to safely evolve, coordinate and run all of these AI technologies.
