While Generative AI is a top priority for APAC C-suites as per a new Salesforce research, data quality remains a significant barrier, risking the business value leaders aim to unlock. We spoke to GAI experts to understand how they can overcome data barriers to take decisive action. The buzz around Generative AI continues with much fervour, so much so that it is now a critical business priority for APAC C-suites. The new Salesforce research which gathered the perspectives of 1,224 C-suites across Asia Pacific (APAC) on Generative AI, revealed that almost all (99%) said GAI integration was critical, with almost 40% considering it their top priority and 43% placing it among their top three.

6 key takeaways by Anurag Aggarwal, on how #ConversationalAI is revolutionizing customer experiences and driving operational efficiency: 1- Conversational AI thrives when it continuously learns from interactions. Regular feedback and audits ensure it meets evolving customer needs. 2- Ensure AI systems comply with privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA, and prioritize data security to foster customer confidence. 3- To engage a global audience, businesses must offer AI support across multiple channels and languages, ensuring seamless, accessible experiences. 4- A hybrid approach—AI for simple queries, while human agents for complex issues, both combines efficiency with empathy. 5- Success metrics includes response times, customer satisfaction, and purchasing trends to track Conversational AI's impact. 6- AI systems can enhance both efficiency and customer trust when learning, privacy, and human collaboration go hand in hand.

From visiting the nearest bank branch to withdraw cash, to travelling cashless through cities, we’ve come a long way in terms of our use of money. In fact, today, our money travels far more miles than we do.     As our money traverses the virtual world, traditional risks have been replaced by more frequent and complex threats. In this evolving environment, #ArtificialIntelligence has become an essential tool in ensuring #cybersecurity, with reports estimating it will grow into a $135 billion industry by 2030.    #AI can prevent attacks before they occur, flag risky patterns, and identify unusual behaviour, acting as a safety net in the digital world.  In a recent article in @ET CISO, I shared my thoughts on how AI is powering cybersecurity in the digital age.
