3. Gartner: “By 2018, 20 percent of business content will
be authored by machines”
Content that is based on data and
analytical information will be turned into
natural language writing by technologies
that can proactively assemble and deliver
information through automated
composition engines
Content currently written by people – such
as shareholder reports, legal documents,
market reports, press releases and white
papers – are prime candidates for these
tools

5. Gartner: “By year-end 2018, customer digital
assistants will recognize individuals by face and voice
across channels and partners”
Multichannel customer experience will take
a big leap forward with seamless, two-way
engagement between customer digital
assistants and customers in an experience
that will mimic human conversations, with
both listening and speaking, a sense of
history, in-the-moment context, tone, and
the ability to respond

IBM Watson is a technology platform that uses natural language processing and
machine learning to reveal insights from large amounts of unstructured data
13. Imagine
• Personal Cognitive Assistants who will make contextual sentiment analysis of your email, with ‘attention
recommendations’
• Image recognition, eg, brand identifiers such as logos + contextual insights
• Auto-insights assessments, predictive analytics and recommendations
• …What’s next?
