Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
Hopefully we humans can maintain the edge in content creation. We have got to--right?

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan Well, we still do right now - AI still has not been all that creative.
That being said, there are companies like Narrative Science that have been about to take data inputs and create news articles. But I don't think they offer a lot of critical thinking in the writing itself.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
To you point @dcawrey, I do remain optimistic not withstanding this "rush" to AI/Automation/Etc. We have to continue to be vigilant and in control. That's the key.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, there is a good example of balanced "progress". It can add, rather than subtract, to our economy - meaning more jobs, etc.
Thanks for sharing!

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, yes, understand your well stated concern. I believe the answer lies in is this an additional access point for services (then a plus) or a replacement for human service/jobs (then a potential minus). The right balance will advance both.
The reality is that when you go through industrial disruptive changes (i.e., trains, introduction of computers, etc.), you will have some affect. The key to positive transformation is to build the future, not simply replace with the cheapest alternatives. You can't stop progress, but you can truly apply progress to better outcomes.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, now here is an excellent example of technology augmenting humans. Robotic precision surgery is not autonomous, it functions under the guidance of a highly skilled physicians. This is the best model of a positive use that I can think of.
Happy President's Day to you as well.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@dcawrey, good assessment. Yes, that is not building knowledge as much as "transacting" existing information. More an example of the evolutionary use as opposed to the digital.
Again, with this article, the new capabilities of technology offer service carriers new and better capabilities to provide better service options.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
A pleasure to be of service--what I want to make sure it is at hand though is to also be aware--this question is yet to be answered:

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
Just out of curiosity, any ideas enhancing service options? I wonder....

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
It seems as if that balance seems to not be as prevalent right now--how does this balance, in the end, be achieved?
