Richard Potter, CEO at Peak, talks to us about Decision Intelligence and why it’s set to be a hot topic in 2022…
Decision intelligence (DI) is the commercial application of AI to the decision-making process. It doesn’t just deliver AI models, it delivers outcomes, and so addresses many of the issues faced by businesses struggling to generate a return from their AI strategy. Because of this, DI is how the majority of businesses will adopt AI – making it the biggest tech movement for a generation.
Along with a Decision Intelligence Platform, the vast majority of businesses will need strategy, services and support to transform into an AI company. We’re at the stage of ‘narrow AI’, where machine learning and AI can make predictions and categorisations for specific purposes.
However, to solve business’s biggest challenges, AI needs to be focused on an outcome, on delivering against business objectives and driving tangible results at an organisational level – 2022 will set the stage for such customisation. Gartner predicts that, by 2023, 30% of large organisations will be practicing DI.Peak believes that, as commercial investment in AI increases and the field of data science matures, a new standard of data science is emerging and will continue to grow in 2022. Like Decision Intelligence, this commercial approach to data science starts with an outcome in mind. Commercial data science teams will start to shift from a bottom-up approach and instead prioritise getting an end-to-end solution live to generate value as quickly as possible.
