| |October 20189The rat race of digital transformation does need very thoughtful re-thinking, maintaining ethics and applying common sense to bring actual value in solv-ing real life problems for human mankind!Caring for all raw data and storing it forever; isn't it actually `Data Overloading'?Is there any sense of applying `Data Science' on all the data organization has or can grab from different sources, hardly of use, rather applying it on the size really making sense or which has some information to drive business decisions?Digital disruption has made companies/orga-nizations vulnerable- Even if they have been stable and durable in past and present. But have been not volatile enough to explore more viable options to be future ready!Innovation is driven by experiments but experi-ments have a cost- Organizations should be open to bear the cost if they really want to drive innovation.The other part of me, being a Technologist, feels-Why human should waste his energy and time in mundane work? Why most of the tedious work can't be automated so mankind is left for better jobs to do and has time to enjoy the precious life along with the nature and the loved ones?Why artificial intelligence can't use technology and science around to detect the problems before hu-man or the doctor finds it when it becomes too late?We should always realize that all the digital dis-ruption and technology evolution that has taken place in transportation, communication, commerce, health, medicine etc. has made our life more conve-nient and connected.Digital is all about Timing, Trust and Comfort, un-less it's there, there would be adoption challenges. We have seen in past that you can build the best technol-ogy but if it's not in time or not adoptable due to trust gap, it will have tough time and will have to wait and review to survive.Data is the new fuel for any organization that gives it an edge in this competitive market. Data from various resources i.e. the data universe is a great op-portunity for value creation through Data Transfor-mation but it does require:· `Art' to understand it· `Technology' to churn it, and· Science to derive intelligence out of it that makes real business senseOnly with the help of Artificial Intelligence aka AI, we will be able to understand, churn and trans-form these complex data universe to take advantage and extract value to make real business sense.These advanced technologies are set to dramat-ically reshape industries, markets, businesses, our society and daily lives, with recent breakthroughs in quantum computing it is slated to get better. From agriculture, manufacturing and city infrastructure to the human body itself, the digital revolution is reaching every corner of our experience triggering a paradigm-shift.With all these advanced human centric technolo-gies taking over the tedious jobs, individuals and so-ciety would evolve for a healthier, more sustainable life, taking sustained breaks or opting a work part-time to re-skill or respond to care commitments.As the change is inevitable, the more that a coun-try or company can articulate the future, the less anx-ious people will feel about it and only the top leaders and sr. management needs to take this responsibility to guide this change. IT'S NOW NO MORE ABOUT BUILDING APPLICATIONS BUT INNOVATION TO CONNECT EVERYTHING AT A SPEED WITH HIGHER AGILITYArvind Singh
