Practical AI


Welcome to the Agentic World

Practical application of AI: That’s the need that inspired this column, and addressing that need was central to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella's keynote at this year’s Microsoft Ignite conference in Chicago. "What lean did for manufacturing," he declared, "AI will do for knowledge work."

'Practical' is in the AI of the Beholder

Welcome to the inaugural post of our new "Practical AI" column, written by technologist, creator of compelling content, and senior "resultant" Howard M. Cohen. Howard has spent more than 40 years in the IT industry. During that time, he has held senior executive positions in many of the top channel partner organizations, and he currently writes for and about IT and the IT channel. As the title of his new column suggests, he will be holding forth on his latest obsession: the practical application of artificial intelligence technologies.
