AI is already being used well in many sectors. Customer contact centers make extensive use of chatbots. Simple questions such as 'where is my order' or 'return conditions' are answered by a bot. If the bot cannot figure it out, an employee will be called in. In addition, there is also the self-driving car. Most Teslas have the option, but it may not yet be used in the Netherlands.
For the daily work behind the laptop, there are also applications. Apart from ChatGPT or making images, there are also possibilities to optimize the daily work. For example, Dell has the Dell Optimizer. The software optimizes the performance and lifespan of the PC or laptop. Do you work a lot at home? Then the software also has the handy function to reduce background noise.
There are also numerous opportunities to use AI and Machine Learning (part of AI) within your business operations.
You can use AI to:
The applications of AI and especially Machine Learning are endless. This of course brings benefits, such as cost savings, improving product quality and contributing to sustainability. AI and Machine Learning also bring concerns and problems with the IT environment.
AI will contribute to security and safety within companies. We previously mentioned detecting threats within cybersecurity. The Dell PowerScale offers protection against cyber attacks, for example. PowerScale has integrated defense against ransomware and smart AirGap. Unfortunately, AI can also be a violation of privacy if used irresponsibly.
Many companies are busy with digital transformation. By this we mean that organizations are revising and adapting traditional models and methods, by taking advantage of the opportunities of the latest digital technologies and supporting digital possibilities. Artificial intelligence does not necessarily make this process easier. Due to the rapid changes within AI, it actually makes it more complex. In addition, AI also needs data to be 'intelligent'. Therefore, start with the basics, ensure that the data is available and that the IT environment can work with it.
The advent of AI will put jobs at risk. It is estimated that 14% of jobs in OECD countries will be automated. This already happened in the past with the advent of computers in factories. Now it is expected that it will play a greater role in customer service employees and copywriters.
But the advent of AI will also create new jobs in many sectors. Think of jobs that work on AI, such as Prompt Engineer, AI Character Design, NLP Engineer and Chatbot Project Manager.
But don't forget: the human factor is indispensable within companies. AI does not have the unique skills that humans have, such as: creativity, emotions and strategic thinking.
Does your company make little to no use of AI? Then competitors in the sector have an advantage. For example, they can identify the bottlenecks in the production process through smart software and a well-designed IT environment with the right hardware. This allows them to remove the bottlenecks and produce faster, without downtime or high latency.
In addition, investing too much in AI and implementing AI can lead to unnecessary costs. Find out which innovation in the field of AI you can use directly and really support in the work.
The use of AI can lead to an increase in the complexity and workload of your IT environment. Managing large datasets, training models and deploying these models requires powerful and smart IT environments. AI will demand a large amount of the performance of your IT environment.
Fortunately, there are solutions available, such as the Dell PowerFlex and the Dell PowerScale. Both options offer the possibility to expand the storage. Whereby the PowerFlex offers the possibility to scale up and down. Both options offer the possibility to sovereign data environmentg to keep.
