Today AI is powering everything and its ubiquity is doing more than ever any technology has done. The technology is being deployed in various fields and making landmark breakthroughs that affect humanity in mostly good ways. In time like this it is quite hard to ignore the hype and the bluster with which it is being discussed on every platform and forum. While AI as a whole is making continuous growth across various industries, its subsets are hustling even more in providing specifications and specialisations to various tasks and operation in a business ecosystem. AI is a technology that is transforming every walk of life. It is a wide-ranging tool that enables people to rethink how we integrate information, analyse data, and use the resulting insights to improve decision making. Our hope through this comprehensive overview is to explain AI to an audience of policymakers, opinion leaders, and interested observers, and demonstrate how AI already is altering the world and raising important questions for society, the economy, and governance. AI’s application across a variety of sectors, address issues in its development, and offer recommendations for getting the most out of AI while still protecting important human values. AI systems unfold has major implications for society as a whole. Encourage greater data access for researchers without compromising users’ personal privacy, invest more government funding in unclassified AI research, promote new models of digital education and AI
workforce development so employees have the skills needed in the 21st-century economy, create a federal AI advisory committee to make policy recommendations, engage with state and local officials so they enact effective policies, regulate broad AI principles rather than specific algorithms, take bias complaints seriously so AI does not replicate historic injustice, unfairness, or discrimination in data or algorithms, maintain mechanisms for human oversight and control, and penalize malicious AI behavior and promote cybersecurity. The world is on the cusp of revolutionizing many sectors through artificial intelligence, but the way AI systems are developed need to be better understood due to the major implications these technologies will have for society as a whole. The world is on the cusp of revolutionizing many sectors through artificial intelligence and data analytics. There already are significant deployments in finance, national security, health care, criminal justice, transportation, and smart cities that have altered decision making, business models, risk mitigation, and system performance. These developments are generating substantial economic and social benefits.

noop Muraleedharan is the Chief Technology Officer of LogicPlum and Managing Director of LogicPlum’s regional office in India. He brings more than a decade of experience in technology. Anoop started his journey as an entrepreneur at the age of 17 by developing a commercial inventory and billing system for the construction industry. Possessing an uncanny ability to see where technology is headed, Anoop knows how to build and lead a team that works creatively to produce a proper product-market fit. Formerly, Mingle was the Chief Data Scientist at Intermedix where he was responsible for directing a team of international data scientists to drive business value. As the lead for the company’s predictive analytics service, Damian offered unique ways to make AI pragmatic and provide bottom-line impact for his organization, subsequently acquired by R1.Before selling to Intermedix, Mingle was the Chief Data Scientist at WPC Healthcare, a company focused on machine learning and predictive analytics solutions for improving clinical, operational, and financial outcomes. He has also worked with companies like Hospital Corporation of America, Coventry Healthcare (an Aetna company), and Morgan Stanley.As a leading authority on how to create business value from AI, Mingle speaks nationally and internationally on reducing cost, increasing revenue, and enhancing speed to market. The mission of LogicPlum is to help businesses around the world break free from their old-world thinking when it comes to their most important decisions. We deliver AI that has a meaningful business impact and is usable by everyone. In truth, entrepreneurship most likely chose us rather than us choosing it. There are four ways that set us apart: a. We reimagine constraints. b. Our ideas are unconventional. c. We like to get things done - not have another meeting. d. Each day we change business with AI. Many of the challenges we have faced over the years are with organizations who use business rules and call it AI; or worse, they use a “point-and-shoot” AI solution that leaves so much business value on the table. 12 inory

LogicPlum formalized a process called R.E.A.S.O.N.™, which does a fantastic job of converting a business problem into an AI solution. Many of the competitors in our space don’t bother to – or know how to - meet organizations where they are. As an AI company, we know that our customers expect us to be at the top of our technology game What they often don’t know to look for, but can expect, is our ability to translate business problems into AI solutions. This game-changing capability is cultivated through working on the hundreds of thousands of models we have built, and the millions of predictions we have delivered. Our philosophy: build products you know customers need. Build them better than anyone else. Build a team that is committed to shattering the status quo.The aspiration of LogicPlum is simple. We want to become the company of choice when an organization is looking to leverage AI for a competitive advantage in the marketplace. In particular, we want to get the word out to Indian businesses. LogicPlum believes India’s digital economy is vital to businesses in the region. After all, there are more than 700 million internet users and roughly half 13 inory

a billion yet to come online. This digital economy produces a significant amount of data that the LogicPlum Enterprise AI Platform can turn into a true competitive advantage for companies. Strategically, LogicPlum is focused on connecting with customers by role, specifically business analysts, data scientists, IT operations, software engineers, and company executives. Each of these individuals has unique needs that can be met by the LogicPlum AI platform. Most AI solutions are just “one-size-fits-all” solutions that don’t take into account the context of a particular user. Additionally, we have seen that LogicPlum is naturally resistant
to a crisis like COVID-19. As an AI software company supported by a globally distributed team located in India, the US, and France, LogicPlum has stabilized its business in the “smaller” issues, like managing our workforce so that we remain flexible. Tactically, we are intentional about making work portable. While we prefer to work in an office setting with our peers for faceto-face collaboration, we are able to work 100% remotely. For our company, it is all about managing risk. Choosing to have lunch brought to our team to cut down on outside interactions as well as leveraging smart protocols like daily temperature checks for team members is by design.

While adopting the newest technologies and integrating them into my networks is my all-time motto, adapting to the environment set by the digital transformation journey is something that I value and truly prioritize. My principle towards transformation is simple – “Go by the winds but turn the winds to your favour when required”. This set of vision takes me through the waves of the digital industrial revolution where a fine amalgamation of business, technology, and strategies pull together crusading the realms of digital transformation across businesses and industries. I see the transformation at the organizational level is more of cultural change than technology adoption. Many companies assume that purely investing in technology will bring digital transformation but this is so untrue. It’s more of a cultural change in the way people work, think, and collaborate to drive the new business. With more than 22 years of wide experience in strategic Sales & Marketing in IT across industries, I am on a constant mission of guiding businesses, helping clients - the existing

Will artificial intelligence have a conscience?
Can artificial intelligence learn the moral values of human societies? Can an AI system make decisions in situations where it must weigh and balance between damage and benefits to different people or groups of people? Can AI develop a sense of right and wrong? In short, will artificial intelligence have a ?conscience This question might sound irrelevant when considering today’s AI systems, which are only capable of accomplishing very narrow tasks. But as science continues to break new grounds, artificial intelligence is gradually finding its way into broader domains. We’re already seeing AI algorithms applied to areas where the boundaries of good and bad decisions are not clearly defined, such as criminal justice and job .application processing In the future, we expect AI to care for the elderly, teach our children, and perform many other tasks that require moral human judgement. And then, the question of conscience and conscientiousness in AI will become even more .critical what Conscience tells us about the development of moral intuition in the human brain.

I have been advising various AI startups for some time now but what differentiates TheDataTeam from others is Ranga’s vision for the company, their product Cadenz.ai, & the culture he is building. These are the ideal seeds of longevity for any company. Everyone here has a strong client-centric obsession and always keeps the customer at the core of whatever they do. Most enterprise customers, globally, love to work with them. They are well-positioned for the next level of growth and this was the perfect time to get my hands deep and be a part of that journey” Today’s customers leave behind vast amounts of data across varied touch-points. Yet, none of this data gets used effectively while customers continue to suffer from friction. Deriving value from customer data is slow, manual, and complicated. At Cadenz, our goal is to simplify the journey from raw customer data to live intelligence so that businesses can focus on eliminating customer friction and driving new customer initiatives in record quick time. That’s why we have engineered sophisticated AI-powered automation with our years of operational systems expertise to bring this first-ofits-kind technology to the market. RoboticDataScience (RDS) is our pioneering platform for churning out new AI solutions. Using cutting-edge techniques, it co-opts human ingenuity into an assisted workflow for automation of the data science required to solve domain-specific business problems. With RDS, the need for trained data scientists, sophisticated algorithms, or vast quantities of labelled data significantly reduces, thus allowing established businesses to quickly reap the benefits of AI. RDS further allows automation of actions and associated feedback collection resulting in a sentient business process, and ultimately a data-native enterprise. The focus in an RDS-powered solution is on creating enterprise knowledge assets that last beyond the tenures of come-and-go data scientists or unicorn ML engineers. Over time, it is able to learn more and adapt faster to changes. Core to the tenets of the design is also governance around the functioning of the solution themselves to provide business full control over the effects of AI as well as enable transparency for the enterprise to share with its customers on the use of their data and associated compliance with privacy regulations.

How Artificial Intelligence Is Transforming Transportation Transportation represents an area where AI and machine learning are producing major innovations in autonomous driving and the core technologies vital to that sector. Autonomous vehicles—cars, trucks, buses, and drone delivery systems—use advanced technological capabilities. Those features include automated vehicle guidance and braking, lane-changing systems, the use of cameras and sensors for collision avoidance, the use of AI to analyse information in real time, and the use of high-performance computing and deep learning systems to adapt to new circumstances through detailed maps. Light detection and ranging systems (LIDARs) and AI are key to navigation and collision avoidance. LIDAR systems combine light and radar instruments. They are mounted on the top of vehicles that use imaging in a 360-degree environment from a radar and light beams to measure the speed and distance of surrounding objects. Along with sensors placed on the front, sides, and back of the vehicle, these instruments provide information that keeps fast-moving cars and trucks in their own lane, helps them avoid other vehicles, applies brakes and steering when needed, and does so instantly so as to avoid accidents.
to adapt to new scenarios. This means that software is the key, not the physical car or truck itself. Advanced software enables cars to learn from the experiences of other vehicles on the road and adjust their guidance systems as weather, driving, or road conditions change. Ride-sharing companies are very interested in autonomous vehicles. They see advantages in terms of customer service and labour productivity. All of the major ride-sharing companies are exploring driverless cars. The surge of car-sharing and taxi services. In order to balance innovation with basic human values we propose a number of recommendations for moving forward with AI. This includes improving data access, increasing government investment in AI, promoting AI workforce development, creating a federal advisory committee, engaging with state and local officials to ensure they enact effective policies, regulating broad objectives as opposed to specific algorithms, taking bias seriously as an AI issue, maintaining mechanisms for human control and oversight, and penalizing malicious behaviour and promoting cybersecurity.
Since these cameras and sensors compile a huge amount of information and need to process it instantly to avoid the car in the next lane, autonomous vehicles require high-performance computing, advanced algorithms, and deep learning systems

Was the forbidden fruit that Adam’s madam ate was also the one that fell on Isaac Newton’s head? Our quest to find an answer to the question guided our “vision”! To augment the human visual system, we trained the “computer” to read images, process information and provide data for analytics. At times, this gets melodramatic; however, a mug of beer keeps us going! We are committed to stay focused on our core competency and develop full-scale capabilities. Our first and only love is “reality” that’s not only “augmented” but also “virtual”.
