To Become a Data-Driven Enterprise, Data Democratization is EssentialCognizant
The document discusses how data democratization through an insights marketplace is essential for organizations to become truly data-driven. It defines data democratization as making data accessible across business lines through self-service analytics and predictive platforms. An insights marketplace allows internal users and partners to search, access, and subscribe to shared data assets like reports, models, and raw data. This facilitates collaboration, reduces duplication of efforts, and can help organizations monetize their data internally through improved products and efficiency or externally through partnerships. Examples of Transport for London and educational institutions successfully applying these approaches are provided.
The document discusses business intelligence and analytics in India, including trends, challenges, and growth. It notes that while the industry in India is growing, it faces challenges like a lack of relevant data, shortage of skilled workers, fragmented market, and need for more domain-specific education.

AI in Manufacturing: moving AI from Idea to ExecutionbyteLAKE
#AI and #HPC convergence is here and is here to stay and accelerate innovations across industries. The increased availability of data, hardware advancements leading to increased computational capabilities, and new algorithms and mathematical models have collectively resulted in the accelerated AI expansion in all sorts of applications. This, however, creates high computational needs which naturally have been more and more successfully addressed by HPC (High-Performance Computing). In that sense, AI & HPC complement each other. HPC infrastructure is often used to train AI’s powerful algorithms by leveraging huge amounts of sample data (training set) and in that way enables AI models (trained algorithms) to recognize shapes, objects (machine vision), find answers hidden in the data (predictive maintenance, data analytics) or accelerate time to results (predict the outcome of complex engineering simulations).
We at byteLAKE have been closely working with Lenovo, Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group, Intel Corporation, NVIDIA and many more to ensure that our AI-powered products not only help our clients efficiently automate various operations and reduce time and cost but also are highly optimized and make the most of the hardware and software infrastructure where they are deployed. Besides our efforts in bringing AI solutions to the paper industry and manufacturing in general (which I described in my previous post), our efforts in bringing value thru AI in the chemical industry highly benefit from HPC's capabilities to dynamically scale and keep up with performance requirements. Our product, #CFDSuite (AI-accelerated CFD) leverages HPC to efficiently analyze historic CFD simulations and makes it possible for our clients to predict their outcomes on various edge devices i.e. laptops, desktop PCs or local edge servers. And with that in mind, I am very happy to see the byteLAKE team becoming one of the drivers of AI & HPC convergence and leveraging it to bring innovations to various industries.

Amar Singh_ An Advocate for Minority Voices in Art and ActivismAmar Singh
Singh insists that the art world is "still not diverse enough" and that the movement for greater representation and decolonisation of art history is only just beginning.
Historically, the art world has favoured the works of straight, white, male artists. However, the growing demand for works by female artists, LGBTQ+ artists, and artists of colour has challenged this norm. This demand has not only increased the financial value of such artists but also their cultural significance. As a result, art institutions are reevaluating the diversity of their collections and artist rosters.

Ibm's global ai adoption index 2021 executive summary
1. IBM Watson Global AI Adoption Index 2021 1
Global AI Adoption
Index 2021
New research commissioned by IBM in partnership
with Morning Consult
2. IBM Watson Global AI Adoption Index 2021 2
Introduction Artificial Intelligence (AI) today is changing the way businesses
operate in fundamental ways, from how they communicate with their
customers through virtual assistants, to automating key workflows and
even managing network security.
Almost a third of the IT professionals surveyed in IBM’s Global AI
Adoption Index 2021, conducted by Morning Consult, say their
business is using AI, similar to IBM’s 2020 findings. 43 percent of
businesses reported that their company accelerated its rollout of AI
as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, lack of AI skills and
increasing data complexity were mentioned as top challenges.
The past year amplified a host of new strategic priorities for businesses
as they had to work to meet the needs of their customers while still
finding ways to be more cost efficient, more responsive and make
faster, more informed decisions. Companies that can overcome
adoption and deployment barriers and tap AI and automation tools to
tackle these challenges will be able to deliver value from AI in 2021.
The data sheds new light on the deployment of AI across 5,501
businesses in China (500), France (500), Germany (500), India (500),
Italy (500), Latin America (1,000 across Brazil, Mexico, Colombia,
Argentina, Chile, Peru), Singapore (500), Spain (500), the United
Kingdom (500), and United States (501). The polling was conducted
online through Morning Consult’s proprietary network of online
providers in April 2021. All respondents were required to have
significant insight or input into their firm’s IT decision-making. See full
details on the methodology at the end of the summary.
3. IBM Watson Global AI Adoption Index 2021 3
Global AI Adoption
Today, almost one-third of IT professionals say their firm is using AI
technology and almost half say their companies are exploring AI,
similar to findings in IBM’s report From Roadblock to Scale: The Global
Sprint Towards AI. The adoption of AI is being driven by the continuing
repercussions of the COVID-19 crisis, general business needs, and the
technology being more accessible.
Larger companies are almost 70% more likely (a difference of 18
percentage points) than smaller companies to have actively deployed
AI as part of their business operations.
Over one-third (34%) of global IT professionals reported that their
company has not deployed any AI projects.

The top drivers of AI adoption in organizations are:
1. Advances in AI that make it more accessible (46%)
2. Business needs (46%)
3. Changing business needs due to COVID-19 (44%)
Half of global IT professionals report that compared to 2-3 years ago,
AI solutions are now better designed to fit the needs of businesses and
almost half say AI solutions are now more accessible and easier
to deploy.
The top three factors a company considers when evaluating
AI providers are:
1. Automates processes to empower higher value work (47%)
2. Provides trust in business outcomes (40%)
3. Ability to deploy anywhere—on any public cloud, private cloud
or on-premises (40%)
Where are businesses on their AI journeys?

Barriers to AI Adoption
Similar to our 2020 findings, global business leaders worry most about
lack of AI skills and expertise as barriers to adoption. Increasing data
complexity and data silos is are concerns for one-third of companies,
but these barriers are noted significantly more often at larger
organizations.
What are the top three barriers to AI adoption?
1. Limited AI expertise or knowledge (39%)
2. Increasing data complexity and data silos (32%)
3. Lack of tools or platforms for developing AI models (28%)
Increasing data complexity and data silos comprise the largest barrier
to AI adoption at larger companies, 11% higher than at smaller ones.
Limited AI expertise is the largest barrier at smaller organizations.
More than one in three businesses cite difficulties in steps along
their organization’s journey to AI:
• Analyzing data to build and scale trusted AI (39%)
• Infusing AI throughout their business (37%)
• Organizing data to create a business-ready analytics foundation
(37%)
• Collecting data to make it simple and accessible (37%)
IT professionals at larger companies were more likely to report that their
biggest difficulties involve data analysis and infusing AI throughout their
organization. IT professionals at smaller companies were more likely to
report that their biggest difficulty is data collection.
AI Investments and Use Case Trends
Companies around the world have accelerated their rollout of AI
as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a trend that was especially
pronounced at larger companies. In the next 12 months, businesses
plan to invest in all areas of AI, from skills and workforce development
to buying AI tools and embedding those into their business processes.
43% of global IT professionals reported that their company has
accelerated their rollout of AI as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Larger companies were 31% more likely than smaller companies (a
difference of 12 percentage points) to report that their company had
accelerated their rollout of AI as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Over a third of global IT professionals report that making employees
more productive (38%) and needing a better way to interact with
customers (36%) influenced their decision to use automation software
or tools as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
One-third of global IT professionals report their company plans to
invest in:
• Embedding AI into current AI applications and processes (34%)
• Reskilling and workforce development (34%)
• Off-the-shelf AI applications (34%)
• Proprietary AI solutions (33%)
• Off-the-shelf tools to build their own applications and models (33%)
IT professionals in China and India were more likely to report their
company plans to invest in each area of AI, especially in proprietary AI
solutions, embedding AI into current applications and processes, and
off-the-shelf tools to build their own applications and models.

Approaches to Trustworthy AI
A majority of respondents say that trusted, explainable AI is crucial
to widespread adoption of the technology and to the success of their
business, including maintaining brand integrity and meeting regulatory
compliance. Trust is now clearly top of mind for businesses as they
think about their consumers, with a majority of businesses believing
that consumers are more likely to choose services of a company that
offers transparency and an ethical framework on how its data and AI
models are built, managed, and used. But while global businesses are
now acutely aware of the importance of trustworthy AI, more than half of
survey respondents cite significant barriers in getting there.
84% of IT professionals report that the ability to explain how their AI
arrived at a decision is important to their business. The issue is 14%
more critical for those using AI compared to those exploring AI, with
over 90% of businesses using AI today saying their ability to explain
how it arrived at a decision is critical.
Over three-quarters of global IT professionals report that it is critical
to their business that they can trust the AI’s output is fair, safe and
reliable.
IT professionals at larger companies were almost 32% more likely (a
difference of 10 percentage points) to say it’s critical that they can trust
the AI’s output is fair, safe and reliable.
IT professionals in India (95%), China (85%), Latin America (82%),
and US (80%) were more likely to report that it is important to their
business that they can trust the AI’s output is fair, safe and reliable.

AI Understands the Language of Business
One of the foundational technologies for AI models, natural language
processing (NLP), has steadily become one of the most important and
commonplace tools for organizations to communicate with customers
and empower their employees. Over the last year, a large number of
organizations, from small ventures to massive enterprises, were either
motivated to adopt this technology to create more efficient, personalized
experiences for their customers during the pandemic, or recognized the
value it could bring to their organization in the future.
Almost half of respondents report that their company is currently using
NLP and one-quarter plan to use NLP in the next 12 months.
Over half of IT professionals in India or China report their companies
are currently using NLP applications.
Increasing the level of adoption for NLP technology in the future will
hinge upon how businesses make use of new tools that automate many
of the common barriers to entry, for instance, lowering the requisite
skillset for training and deploying language models. Professionals at
companies considering the use of NLP report the top five barriers to
entry for adopting this technology as:
• Technology is too expensive (29%)
• Requiring too much training to be relevant (26%)
• Difficult to keep up-to-date (24%)
• Technology is too complex to use (22%)
• Lacking requisite skillset in organization (22%)
Cost is the greatest barrier to adopting NLP technologies in the US,
Latin America and Europe, however, training requirements are a greater
barrier in India, while complexities and lack of customization are
barriers in China.
Over half (52%) of global IT professionals report that their company
is using or considering using NLP solutions to improve customer
experience, with 43% using NLP to increase cost efficiency.
Regardless of industry, half of businesses deploying AI are using NLP to
improve customer experience.

As businesses become more familiar with the potential of AI, automation
technologies are becoming more deeply embedded into day-to-day
operations in order to drive greater efficiencies, save costs, and more.
Automation is also being utilized by businesses today for increasingly
complex use cases, such as automating the response and resolution to
IT incidents.
80% of companies are already using automation software and tools, or
plan to use this technology in the next 12 months.
The top three reasons a majority of businesses are currently using
or considering using automation tools are:
1. Driving greater efficiencies (58%)
2. Saving costs (58%)
3. Giving valuable time back to employees (42%)
Over a third of global IT professionals report that making employees
more productive (38%) and needing a better way to interact with
customers (36%) influenced their decision to use automation software
or tools as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, only 18% of companies were
influenced by the demand for products to adopt automation
technologies, while the majority (38%) cited the need to make
employees more productive.
The UK has the lowest adoption of automation tools (32% not using,
49% already using, 19% in next 12 months), while China has the
highest adoption (8% not using, 71% already using, 21% in next
12 months).
Only 8% of companies in China have no plans to use automation
technologies. 92% are already using, or plan to in the next 12 months.

As remote work practices become more widely adopted, and new
applications, IoT, and edge computing become more common,
businesses are increasingly overwhelmed by the enormous volume
of data generated each day—the “data sprawl.” Organizations are
also burdened by the prospect of making sure this information is
accessible, secure, accurately informing their business intelligence,
and complying with emerging privacy regulations. This vast amount of
data is often spread across extensive IT estates, including traditional
data centers, as well as multiple clouds in many locations, with
multiple vendors.
87% of global IT professionals report it is very or somewhat important
to their company that they can build and run their AI projects
wherever the data resides.
A majority of IT professionals in Latin America (60%), India (78%),
Spain (55%), and the US (52%) report it is very important to their
company that they can build and run AI projects wherever the
data resides.
Though 83% of IT professionals feel confident they have the right
tools to find data across their business wherever it resides, only
51% report that their platform offers a single, unified view of their
organization’s data.
72% of IT professionals in India, compared with only 23% in China,
are very confident that their company has the right tools in place to
find data across their business, no matter where it resides, so it can
be organized, analyzed and turned into useful insights. In the US, this
figure is 44%.
Over two-thirds (67%) of global IT professionals report their company
is drawing from over 20 different data sources to inform their AI, BI,
and analytics systems.
