Understanding what artificial intelligence (AI) is about

The development, availability and affordability of highly performing computers and storage units has led to a boost in artificial intelligence (AI) and the creation of new, advanced applications, such as image and speech recognition, failure prediction, recommendation, etc. This advent has had a massive impact on our society and revolutionised the way industries, companies and organisations run their services. However, the true potential of AI is often misunderstood, leading to an under-exploitation of its capabilities.
On the other side, commercially available AI solutions often introduce the belief that realising an AI solution is easy and straightforward and that insights can be delivered by simply feeding data to their solution. Yet, AI is much more than that.
