Manufacturing, in particular, is facing significant threats, with ransomware accounting for almost one-quarter of attacks (24%), according to Verizon’s 2023 Data Breach Investigations Report – Manufacturing Snapshot.

As organizations roll out AI applications and AI-enabled smartphones and devices, IT leaders may need to sell the benefits to employees or risk those investments falling short of business expectations. That’s because employees have decidedly mixed feelings about AI coming to their workplaces, according to the recent survey by IT solutions integrator Insight , even as many enterprises are already adopting or experimenting with AI and as AI-enabled phones begin hitting the market.

When building Docker images, we are often repeating steps. When building locally, Docker uses a cache so it doesn’t have to rebuild layers it has already built before. This is great! In CI/CD pipelines, you often start on a clean virtual machine. This means there is no Docker cache yet! Your Docker image will be built from scratch every time. This takes up valuable time and creates a slower feedback loop.

While data platforms, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and programming platforms have evolved to leverage big data and streaming data, the front-end user experience has not kept up. Holding onto old BI technology while everything else moves forward is holding back organizations. Traditional Business Intelligence (BI) aren’t built for modern data platforms and don’t work on modern architectures.

Whenever a new technology comes along, large companies think you need to appoint a designated senior leader — a “czar,” in popular parlance — and it will get taken care of. This, however, is a mistake. The process usually starts when teams are pitching leadership on wildly optimistic and conflicting use cases, and the board, excited but unsure how to proceed, puts some poor, unsuspecting soul in charge of the whole thing.

We’ve all heard of servant leadership. The concept of “being a servant” to your teams and treating employees as critical individuals to be cultivated and empowered, has strong merit. However, many organizations fall short, with those at the top of the hierarchy viewing employees as interchangeable cogs in the corporate machine. Instead of diving deep into the theories, practices, and benefits of servant leadership, I will focus on a specific, related principle or mind-set: being unobtrusive.

Companies that are struggling to find the right place to deploy new AI tech should consider use cases involving “voice of the customer” applications — parsing, interpreting, and responding to customer input from all different channels. They are typically easier to implement than employee productivity use cases because they don’t require as much behavior change, and easier to measure improvements in economic value because improving customer satisfaction often has a financial payoff.
