"May you live in interesting times" (a 19th-century English expression often mistaken as being of Chinese provenance), aptly describes today's technology environment. Artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science, and the internet of things were already interesting enough. It turns out though that those were just prologue to the rise of something called a "Cognitive Digital Twin". To shed light on this and other advances, we turn to Dr. Ahmed El Adl, Principal Director of AI Consulting & Intelligent Solutions at Accenture. He shares his far-reaching insights with us, and clarifies whether AI will ultimately have a bigger impact as a tool for automation or worker augmentation, whether machine learning will ultimately eliminate the need for data science altogether, and the most important background to consider when hiring an AI professional.
