Artificial intelligence. AI is likely to be either the best or worst thing to happen to humanity and in the context of AI, it seems that our technology is on the path to exceeding our humanity. Artificial intelligence (AI) is on the rise both in business and in the world in general. But where are exactly when it comes to AI and how beneficial is it really to your business in the long run? Sure, it can take over those time-consuming and mundane tasks that are bogging your employees down, but at what cost? With AI spending expected to reach $46 billion by 2020, according to an IDC report, there’s no sign of the technology slowing down. As the saying goes, take the next 10,000 startups and just add AI. Today I’m joined by my good friend Nick Argyros, the founder of a startup called Got Bot, that uses AI to enable Social Commerce and optimize Customer Experience at scale for clients around the world. Got Bot has been voted as one of the Top 10 startups on the continent by StartUpBootCamp has raised millions in venture capital in less than 18 months. Nick and I explore the world of AI, how corporates are interfacing with startups to help them solve global challenges and what he has learnt in the process of working with the latest AI technology and building Got Bot into a global play.
