Farid Mheir's insight:

WHY IT MATTERS: workflow automation is an essential tool that too few organizations leverage within their digital transformation. Unfortunate because it can provide some very tangible benefits along with cost and error reduction. This paper provides a simple use case - employee onboarding - which unfortunately too many organizations still do manually.

Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Experience Platforms highlights the variety of solutions and the complexity of selecting the "best solution" #DXP

Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Experience Platforms highlights the variety of solutions and the complexity of selecting the "best solution" #DXP | WHY IT MATTERS: Digital Transformation | Scoop.it

Organizations are looking to use DXPs as they move from web-centric to more pervasive, multichannel digital experiences. This Magic Quadrant will help those responsible for a range of customer-, employee- and partner-facing initiatives find the most suitable vendor for their needs.
Gartner defines a digital experience platform (DXP) as an integrated set of technologies, based on a common platform, that provides a broad range of audiences with consistent, secure and personalized access to information and applications across many digital touchpoints. Organizations use DXPs to build, deploy and continually improve websites, portals, mobile and other digital experiences.

Farid Mheir's insight:

WHY IT MATTERS: the web has moved from being simply a digital brochure to the source where all other channels derive their content - from print brochures, ads, mobile, emails, etc. In that context it is not a surprise that web solutions (or web content management solutions) have become platforms. So important is this technology trend that retailers now consider their eCommerce solution as the most important tool when looking to replace their POS solution in store. Thus this review from Gartner can help identify that future enterprise leaders may not be IBM, Microsoft and Oracle but Acquia, Adobe or Sitecore. Then again, one should expect these leaders to acquire those DX platforms to keep their position within the organization. Fun times ahead!

I just coded my first AI algorithm, and oh boy, it felt good | WHY IT MATTERS: Digital Transformation | Scoop.it
Speaking the language of deep learning will allow you to have a conversation with the future. And learning to speak it is not as hard as you might think. I’m a prime example: You don’t have to be a programming guru or math wiz to learn to code. You just need to be willing to learn—and to play nice with Python and Numpy.
Farid Mheir's insight:

WHY IT MATTERS: software is everywhere and more often than not, AI will be everywhere in the future. This articles proves that if you want to do it, programming neural networks is not that big of deal. That being said, from this simple coding experiment to developing a self driving car, there is much to do. But to gain the basic fundamentals that you require to understand the world around you in the coming years, it is well worth the investment, don't you think?
