Mike Pastore Demand Gen Director | | | Artificial intelligence is the first technology in history that can evolve without human assistance and can be somewhat unpredictable. Widely adopted by a variety of industries from healthcare, to finance, and even retail, AI is beginning to play a larger role in how companies operate. The use of AI is not slowing down anytime soon. In fact, there are 100+ companies that use some form of AI listed. One industry type of AI that is continuously emerging is generative AI. This type of AI gives users the ability to generate content based on user text prompts for projects ranging from essays, graphics, and complex software code. Though a learning curve for some, the use of AI is not going away. Forecasters predict that by 2030 the artificial intelligence market size will be valued at over $1,750,000 compared to the market size now which is roughly valued at $250,000. In this eWEEK article, read more about where AI is going, as well as a list of the top 100 AI service providers available now. | | | As tech trends continue to change it is inevitable that infrastructure and operations teams will have to adapt to economic and geopolitical changes as they pivot towards supporting new technologies and ways of working.
