AI transforming industries

Technologies have always been at the frontier of digitalization and continued to transform industries in multiple ways. But one technology that has been doing wonders since its introduction is artificial intelligence, aka AI. This technology has evolved to surprise us with inventions that were once impossible to deploy, from automation to robotics. 

For AI enthusiasts, this article from The CEO Views can be a source of information, letting them explore the AI’s role in the areas of cloud technology, content generation (both written and visual), and project management. Through this article, we can come to know about the marvellous work that AI is doing in these realms and reshaping operations like never before.

The Silicon Journal is a reputable business publication, available both in digital and print formats. It provides a plethora of knowledge to industry peers and entrepreneurs by featuring articles, blogs, news, and profiles that cover industry-specific topics and industry leaders.

Artificial Intelligence: Facts and Figures

As artificial intelligence continues to evolve, we are witnessing its wide applications across industries. Be it marketing or project management, businesses are getting smarter by harnessing AI to optimize their operations. According to a Statista report, the artificial intelligence market size is projected to reach $244.22 billion in 2025 and is expected to cross $800 billion by 2030, with generative AI’s continued evolution. The generative AI market size is going to reach $63 billion in 2025, with the United States having the largest market of Machine Learning (ML, a form of AI) globally. 

Generation of content, automation of repetitive business tasks, autonomous vehicles, robots reducing human burden in various projects, detection of fraud in finance, and integration into healthcare applications - all these are wonders of artificial intelligence.

As we move forward in this article, we will be able to witness the multitudinous aspects of AI, particularly in relation to cloud technology, project management, and generative AI.

Artificial Intelligence Working in Collaboration with Cloud Platforms

Among all the AI developments, one of the most amazing ones is its ability to integrate with other technologies to create or deliver something astonishing. Cloud AI is one such example where artificial intelligence resources and services are hosted on public cloud platforms, for example, Google Cloud AI or Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Before knowing AI’s collaboration with cloud platforms, we must have a brief understanding of what cloud technology is all about. Cloud technology refers to the on-demand delivery of IT resources over the internet, such as storage, computing power, and applications. This pay-as-you-go model of the technology enables users to access services only when required, eliminating the need to buy and manage physical hardware. Cloud technology offers the benefits of scalability, accelerated innovation, and cost-efficiency for businesses of all scales.

With artificial intelligence making its way across industries, cloud technology has emerged as a platform for businesses to store and provide accessibility to a vast amount of data for AI services. This is where AI service providers integrate with cloud platforms to deliver accessibility to their AI services and resources. 

Whether someone is crafting articles or emails, Cloud AI offers suggestions for plagiarism-free content generation, leveraging its capability to efficiently process an extensive database. It helps industries like e-commerce, healthcare, and banking to empower their decision-making. Cloud platforms also facilitate automation of repetitive tasks through AI-powered algorithms.

Cloud-AI’s real-time capabilities range from quick delivery of customer services through chatbots to automation of production processes. This amalgamation of cloud and AI creates a dynamic and responsive corporate ecosystem, positioning organizations in a data-driven and AI-enhanced business landscape with much scalability, accessibility, and flexibility.

Transforming Project Management with Artificial Intelligence

According to a survey conducted by Standish Group, only 35% of projects succeed, and one major reason behind such a low success rate is the inadequacy of technologies that have been used until recently. Technologies prior to AI were static, unintelligent, and demanded immense manual efforts to maintain. In the world of obsolete technologies, AI and ML stepped in to bring revolution.

The use of AI in project management is extensive, from task automation to optimized resource allocation. Project managers also leverage artificial intelligence to acquire data-driven insights, predict risks, and thereby increase efficiency to focus more on strategic work related to their projects.

The AI-driven transformation in the project management landscape reimagined the role of project managers. They gradually shifted from administrative and manual tasks toward strategic thinking, stakeholder management, and mentoring. With AI hitting the ground, the future of project management seems promising.

AI is expected to become a core component of project management, with a prediction that AI will drive 80% of project management tasks by 2030. A recent study by Harvard Business Review has shown that approximately $48 trillion is invested in projects every year in the US. After the application of AI across projects, the success rate of projects is likely to increase by 25%, equating to trillions of dollars of value to organizations, society, and individuals.

Project management AI tools like Asana, ClickUp, Monday.com,  Wrike, Jira, Notion, and several others are reimagining the roles of project managers by optimizing various project management tasks. From project planning to task distribution, from creation of personal project management applications and software to issue tracking, and from task automation to real-time collaboration, AI-powered project management tools are widely being used by organizations to streamline their project operations.

Generative AI: A Paradigm Shift in Automation?

It is sometimes difficult to say whether the evolution of Generative AI is a paradigm shift in progress or just another developmental phase of the wondrous AI technology. Generative AI was first introduced in the form of a chatbot, named Eliza, by developer Joseph Weizenbaum in 1966 at MIT to stimulate human conversation. These AI-powered chatbots performed using pattern matching. Since then, the AI model has undergone immense transformations over the years, leading it to the position it is in today.

Generative AI fundamentally works on the Large Language Model (LLM) or algorithms that are trained to perform specific tasks using vast amounts of data. One of the most common applications of Generative AI is content creation; for example, OpenAI generates texts and images through prompts. On the other hand, Descript is capable of converting text into audio, offering multiple voice options. These tools are designed to shorten content creation and save costs, and with their continuous evolution, they could be the next generation of applications in app stores.

Below, we will look into some of the advantages of Generative AI:

1. Increased Efficiency

Generative AI unlocks automation of data analysis, content production, reducing the burdens of manual and administrative tasks from humans and providing swift customer support. Identifying trends within databases, this AI-powered model can empower humans in content creation by generating articles, blog posts, and social media posts, and delivering 24/7 customer support.

2. Reduced Expenses

Automation of repetitive tasks and data analysis is done through this model, which in turn reduces the cost of hiring analysts. Reduced reliance on human staff for customer service also helps organizations save expenses. 

3. New Product Development

It has the power to transform businesses through idea generation, prototyping, testing, and marketing. It also has the potential to automate tasks, enhance productivity, save costs, and drive innovative product development. 

4. Improved Customer Service

Generative AI models are trained to offer personalized solutions, suggestions, content, and real-time responsive client service. Through its revolutionary approach, businesses are taking their operations to the next level and becoming more competitive and efficient.
