How 5G, AI and IoT enable “Intelligent Connectivity”
Intelligent connectivity is a concept that foresees the combination of 5G, the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence as a means to accelerate technological development and enable new disruptive digital services. In the intelligent connectivity vision, the digital information collected by the machines, devices and sensors making up the Internet of Things is analysed and contextualised by AI technologies and presented to users in a more meaningful and useful way. This would both improve decision-making and allow delivery of personalised experiences to the users, resulting in a richer and more fulfilling interaction between people and the environment surrounding them.
As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly sophisticated thanks to advances in computing power, the education of data scientists and the availability of machine learning tools for creating advanced algorithms, the Internet of Things is getting closer to becoming a mainstream phenomenon. 5G represents the missing element to bring these technologies to new levels and enable the intelligent connectivity vision. The ultra-fast and ultra-low latency connectivity provided by 5G networks, combined with the huge amount of data collected by the Internet of Things and the contextualisation and decision-making capabilities of artificial intelligence technologies will enable new transformational capabilities in virtually every industry sector, potentially changing our society and the way we live and work.

How the combination of 5G, AI, Big Data and IoT is set to change everything
The combination of 5G, artificial intelligence (AI), smart platforms and the Internet of Things (IoT) form the basis of what we call ‘Intelligent Connectivity’. With more than 5.1 billion unique subscribers and nearly 9 billion connections globally, mobile is already one of the most widely deployed technology platforms ever. However, Intelligent Connectivity takes this further and marks the beginning of an era of highly contextualised and personalised experiences, underpinned by ubiquitous hyper connectivity. It is set to impact almost every aspect of our daily lives from the way we consume entertainment to the way in which we learn and interact with colleagues. It will give people the information they need in an instant making our lives more productive and efficient. It will impact how entire industries innovate and operate, how societies interact and thrive and how economies flourish. Read More
Six Reasons Why We Haven't Seen Full AI Adoption
On one hand, we know AI is the future of business. After all, manpower simply isn’t fast enough to keep up with the pace of consumer demand. That said, there’s a big difference between knowing AI is the future and actually implementing AI within your business successfully. That latter part—AI adoption—is where many companies are finding themselves stuck.
No one said digital transformation would be easy—but you’re not alone if you assumed AI adoption would be a cakewalk. Today’s AI is a miracle worker. If it can translate languages, process invoices, and change marketing messages in real time, it must be a magic bullet. Right? Except when it comes to implementation. Yes, AI is meant to make your business life easy. But real-life conditions don’t always cooperate. If your company has been less than successful in its AI efforts, you are not alone. The following are a few reasons that I see AI adoption failing to reach full-penetration in businesses around the globe. Read More
AI Reading List
For newcomers to the field of artificial intelligence, prioritizing among endless AI resources can be an overwhelming challenge. This list attempts to do exactly that: it’s a carefully curated compilation of resources for getting up to speed quickly on key topics in artificial intelligence research and its long-term implications.
The list is divided into “80/20” sections with a few high-priority readings, for maximum value with minimal time investment, and “deep dive” sections for further exploration. Read More
