The Artificial Intelligence of Things

The Artificial Intelligence of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) is everywhere. It’s the office automation system that detects changing conditions and adjusts the thermostat or lighting. It’s production equipment that alerts maintenance technicians to an impending failure before it happens. Or the wearable device that tracks steps and analyzes our heart rates. All of these devices create massive amounts of data that is useless, unless analyzed.

The full power and potential of the IoT is unlocked when organizations tap into the data collected. Artificial intelligence (AI) and the IoT are the perfect example of two technologies that complement one another and should be tightly connected. From consumer wearable devices to industrial machinery, connected things can signal their environment, be remotely monitored, controlled — and increasingly, make decisions and take actions on their own.

AI is an essential form of analytics that can help make rapid decisions and uncover deep insights as it “learns” from the massive volumes of IoT data. In this white paper, The Artificial Intelligence of Things SAS, a leader in analytics technology, explores how AI and IoT analytics (that is, the artificial intelligence of things, or AIoT) create value for organizations.

In this white paper, experts at SAS examine the evolution of AI and the IoT and how organizations can move from simply collecting data to a more important step, which is collective learning by way of real world examples of how the AI and IoT partnership is already benefiting organizations across a variety of industries. In this paper you’ll also learn:

  • The future potential of AI and IoT
  • Four keys to success with these technologies
  • How the right partner can help
  • How AI and IoT redefine the possible

After reading this paper, when you think IoT you’ll think of AI, too, as you’ll quickly see that these technologies are already and will continue to become inextricably linked.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
