IBM (NYSE:IBM)
has announced a global alliance with
digital services and consulting provider Infosys Limited (NYSE:INFY) to “help enterprises accelerate
their digital transformation journey using the IBM public cloud.” This alliance
will allow Infosys to “offer its clients services around IBM's cloud native and
open technologies, such as AI, blockchain, analytics and more.” Ravi Kumar
Singisetti, President, Infosys, commented:
"Enterprises cannot
truly succeed at digital transformation without leveraging cloud - be it
transforming processes, expanding into new markets, launching new products,
automating operations or elevating customer experience, cloud is the true
enabler to complete digital transformation. But enterprises, especially in
highly regulated and data sensitive industries are worried about privacy,
regulatory compliance, security and system downtime as they embark on this
transformation journey. Our collaboration with IBM will help enterprises across
industries address these concerns and accelerate their digital transformation
journey on IBM public cloud."
At an event celebrating its UK expansion and the
opening of a Tech Hub in Birmingham, AI firm Sidetrade SA (EPA:ALBFR) announced
its intention to invest some £30 million ($38.48 million USD) in AI by 2025.
The investment plan will focus on R&D, innovation and tech skills, and
“builds on Sidetrade’s solid expertise in areas such as machine learning,
natural language processing and automated business processes.” Julian David,
techUK CEO, who attended the Tech Hub opening, commented:
“The UK is a global leader
in Artificial Intelligence. It is home to start-ups and scale-ups developing
innovative AI applications across many sectors from healthcare to finance. The
UK is also leading the way in working to find solutions to the challenges of
bias and transparency in algorithmic decision-making, as well as how we can use
emerging technology to provide positive outcomes for our society and economy,
and tackle major issues such as climate change. We are pleased to see Sidetrade
will be joining us on this path. Its investment is a sure sign that the UK, and
Birmingham in particular, is an attractive place for AI businesses who are
ambitious to scale and make a difference to innovation, business, and jobs.”
Global AIaaS to Grow by
$15.14 Billion from 2020-2024
A report from Technavio finds that the global Artificial
Intelligence-as-a-Service (AIaaS) market is projected to grow by $15.14 billion
with a compound annual growth rate of more than 48 percent from 2020 to 2024.
An excerpt from the report snapshot outlines key drivers in the market:
The use of advanced
infrastructure at a reduced cost will be one of the primary factors driving
AIaaS market growth. The development of AI requires high investments in
hardware like software and sensors, maintenance, and repair costs. The software
also needs to be upgraded frequently to meet the changing environmental needs.
To avoid these direct costs in the implementation and maintenance of AI,
enterprises are preferring to outsource these tasks to AIaaS providers, thereby
driving artificial intelligence-as-a-service market growth.
The use of AIaaS for human
interaction with machines using natural language processing (NLP) is one of the
key artificial intelligence-as-a-service market trends. This technology is
growing rapidly, driven by the growing human-to-machine interactions and
availability of powerful computing and big data. Its applications include
customer service chatbots and virtual assistants. For these applications,
enterprises can use AlaaS and pay only for the time NLP was used. This will
lead to an increase in the adoption of AlaaS during the forecast period. As a
result of these factors, the market will register a CAGR of over 48% during the
forecast period.
