Innovation Leadership Disruption Internet of Things 

When our IoT (Internet of Things) platform crashed several years ago, I found myself pushed into a corner. With an imminent demo for an important client, I had to take quick action.

In early 2018, an Australian telecommunications company bit the bullet and rolled out an AI program for its incident management process. The telco expected to save more than 25% of the operational costs from this implementation. Unfortunately, the plan backfired.

Businesses must accept this fact and know that machines, much like humans, also need attention, retraining, and a performance improvement plan before they go live again.

Transformation Artificial Intelligence Internet of Things 

Emerging technology projects can come in different sizes and flavors. Some are only IoT deployments, some are only AI implementations, and some could be a combination of both. When you want to do any of this, you must take control of planning and architecture early on.
