Using the opening keynote and industry days\u2019 digital leadership conversations as a springboard, Gurdeep Singh Pall<\/a>, CVP for Business AI at Microsoft, dove into one of the symposium\u2019s most transformative topics: artificial intelligence (AI).<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re in the golden era of digital transformation. It\u2019s changing everything we do: how we shop, how we bank, and how we date.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

 \u2013 Gurdeep Singh Pall, CVP, Business AI, Microsoft<\/em><\/p>\n

Addressing a packed audience, Pall eloquently articulated the company\u2019s strategy of democratizing AI for every person and every organization by infusing it into each and every Microsoft product. Not only will this pave the way to sweeping improvements in operational efficiency on both individual and corporate levels, but Microsoft AI will simultaneously provide a platform that enables the rest of the business community to implement their own amazing solutions with AI.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we are really doing is creating a system of intelligence rather than just systems of record.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2013 Gurdeep Singh Pall, CVP, Business AI, Microsoft<\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s time for forward-leaning IT leaders to stop thinking of AI as a monolithic construct. While I\u2019m at it, the same goes for big data. Just as the internet (once upon a time) put a world of data at our fingertips, AI will put a department\u2019s worth of researching power at our beck and call. Does that mean disruption to contemporary business models? Yes, it does, and digital leaders in every sector need to start looking at the ways they can implement AI innovation first and best.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Our view is that AI is about A<\/strong>mplifying human I<\/strong>ngenuity, not replacing it. We\u2019re backing that belief up with deep research into vision, speech, and reading intelligence. With this multipronged approach to automated research, you\u2019ll be able to use massive computing power to bring big data to bear quickly and efficiently\u2014whether you\u2019re completing daily tasks or focusing on core business scenarios.<\/p>\n

It is important to remember that this kind of innovation isn\u2019t just some pie-in-the-sky futurist talk. Microsoft already offers a wealth of diverse tools and platforms capable of maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of AI and your resources, and there is more on the way<\/a>. Or, as Pall puts it:<\/p>\n

\u201cForms over Data is evolving into Conversations over Knowledge.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2013 Gurdeep Singh Pall, CVP, Business AI, Microsoft<\/em><\/p>\n

Those words crystalize the impact AI is already having on data insights. The impersonal is becoming personal, a dialogue rather than a spreadsheet. Join us.<\/p>\n
