In Brief

To supercharge services and products for efficiency and agility, applying rule-based automation alone is not enough. Processes need to be infused with learning-based intelligence – both human and artificial, leading to the autonomy of algorithms, and smarter and adapted outcomes.

In Detail

In the format of use cases, keynotes, interviews, and expert panel discussions this 3 hour-long global-reaching event spotlights the current state of AI and other cognitive technologies across industries and disciplines with practical insights. Speakers will dive into details on how cognitive technologies empower processes and shift the human-machine collaboration to a new level.

  • Cross-industry insights: the reality today and the potential for the future
  • Challenges and opportunities
  • A paradigm shift: renewed human-machine collaboration
