Building Data Foundation For Responsible AI To Drive Business Advantage

Organizations are witnessing the dawn of the data-driven, AI, and regulatory era. The data-driven and digital transformation of organizations is occurring at a rapid pace in order to stay relevant and pave the way to a sustainable future. The consolidation of an organization’s data into a governed, trusted, and well-managed environment that supports both AI development and production workloads is playing a crucial role in this transformation. Organizations want to take advantage of AI, but they need a trusted foundation and access to the data. Our mission is to deliver a trusted, enterprise-wide, data and AI backbone for transforming IBM into an AI Enterprise. This is helping to accelerate the infusion of data and AI in business processes and provide a fertile environment for identifying, building, and deploying responsible generative AI solutions. The resulting benefits to business are reduced time to find and consume data, reduced time to implement initiatives across business units, reduced end-to-end cycle time, and delivering insights that were previously impossible.

Best Practices for Harnessing Generative AI Capabilities in the Enterprise to Enhance Customer Servicing Experiences

Leading analysts including McKinsey have emphasized the need for business-technology co-ownership of solutions delivery and value creation, to maximize the impact of AI in ways that count for customers.  Intelligence and automation help modernize a whole range of customer service operations by automating routine tasks, allowing human agents to focus on complex problem-solving and empathetic interactions, with enhanced compliance and efficiency for better value and UX delight. In this context, the integration of Generative AI in customer experiences including call transcription, sentiment analysis and similar applications can enable a more empathetic and responsive service model, where efficiency, personalization, and customer satisfaction are paramount.  We present  an AI software engineering best practice focused on integrating new AI capabilities into enterprise wide customer service platforms to deliver incremental value along a multi-year journey of AI adoption. It is based on several technical, product and business criteria essential to optimize the full AI capability stack, to drive greater enterprise value by pacing how and when AI is built and integrated into servicing platforms.
