Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already impacting our lives in ways we don’t always see. AI technology is being deployed in many domains, from autonomous vehicles to the Internet of Things (IoT),to a wide range of AI enabled algorithms and robots. Organizations are rushing to embrace the promise and possibilities of an AI-enabled future. AI is estimated to be a $13T global market by 2030. (McKinsey)
