I've been a software desinger and developer for over ten years, for the last 8 I've worked in corporate IT. Recently I've become aware that my youthful desire to program has been suppressed by the needs of my job. Originally, I had an intense desire to design more intelligent solutions and this desire spurred me to learn to program. Early on, it was my interest in AI that got me in to the software industry, but due to the demands of Corporate IT, much of the work I acutally do tends to be in the UI/CRUD/Framework area. This blog is intended to focus discussion about the use of Artificial Intelligence programming techniques and algorithms in the business world.
It's apparent to me that more intelligent designs could go a long way towards assisting users in making faster, better decisions. How though do we integrate AI algorithms into the coporate world? How can we get users used to interacting with smarter algorithms? Much of what IT programming does today is centered around displaying and editing data. Can we build Intelligence into our frameworks that is more aware and capable of delivering data in more useful ways? Can we build Intelligence into capacity and load planning that will prevent the kinds of failures systems are prone to under heavy use?
This blog will explore these ideas and discuss AI that is actually in use in various business applications.
