This book presents the foundations of the Big Data research and innovation ecosystem and the associated enablers that facilitate delivering value from data for business and society. It provides insights into the key elements for research and innovation, technical architectures, business models, skills, and best practices to support the creation of data-driven solutions and organizations. The book is a compilation of selected high-quality chapters covering best practices, technologies, experiences, and practical recommendations on research and innovation for Big Data.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is on everyone’s lips. Many countries and companies have launched an AI action plan and have undertaken activities for the adoption of AI, from research to deployment. Almost everyone and every sector now realises the huge business potential of AI – a fact underscored by official forecasts, such as the IDC AI Worldwide Spending Guide.
As with any truly disruptive technology, AI also raises concerns. Some of them belong to the realm of science fiction; we are nowhere near having AI algorithms that could mimic “general intelligence”. But even with the current state of the art, AI is a transformational technology that is bound to have a few unwanted side effects. Some of them are already well known, such as AI algorithms with a bias against certain individuals due to the way they have been trained, while others are yet to emerge. In his recent book AI Superpowers Kai-Fu Lee, former head of Google in China, rightfully acknowledges in his conclusion: “As both the creative and disruptive force of AI is felt across the world, we need to look to each other for support and inspiration”.
The book you are holding describes in detail the foundational “elements” needed to deliver value from Big Data. It clearly defines the enablers needed to grow data ecosystems, including technical research and innovation, business, skills, policy and societal elements. The book charts pathways to new value creation and new opportunities from Big Data. Decision-makers, policy advisors, researchers and practitioners at every level will benefit.
