Sick of all the AI marketing? It's OK. Let it all out. You can speak frankly here
Help us form a more practical view
Reader study Early responses to our latest survey tell us that a lot of readers are fed up with all of the sensationalist marketing and news coverage around AI.
But a more pragmatic view is also coming through. Machine learning isn't some kind of magic; it simply represents a set of system capabilities that allow some different kinds of applications to be built. As such, unless you're willing to throw everything into the cloud, you need the right kind of infrastructure to support it.
Can you help us to define what this means in practice? We'd love your input so we can develop a down-to-earth view of what is needed in terms of platforms to get early projects off the ground, particularly in a more industrial or manufacturing context.
