AI Use Case Can Robotics Help a Law Firm

Apologies for the delay in posting.  Had a house move and busy work schedule that took precedence.

So continuing on examples of how AI would aid this international law firm we now look at how Robotics ( The third arm of AI ) could assist the company to differentiate in the market place.

Organization Process Enhancement with Robotics

Given that the use case being described is for a law firm; this…

We interrupt normal broadcasting for a thought bubble !

Good Morning.

  I got into my car this morning as usual and at some point I pull up Spotify to play one of my own playlists.  This morning I was a victim of their own marketing initiatives.  Instead of my recent heavy rotation playlists being at the top there was this podcast link to Startup.  I read the blurb and it seemed interesting since I did have a stint as an entrepreneur in starting up a…

AI Use Case 1: Step 2 Future State of HR Hiring

  So to summarize from the last post.  The first primary step in designing for AI projects is to align to the business strategy. As discussed earlier a specific use case is needed. As well as understanding current state processes, capabilities and outcomes.  Now that we understand the state of the organization and the intended high level outcome. We get into to aligning AI capabilities that could…

AI Use Case 1: HR Hiring and Staff Attrition Step 1 Knowing Current State

In this new set of series I will post and reflect on engagements that I have had with organizations around the world.  I will discuss what they are attempting to do with various AI related technologies and then provide updates on the projects as they progress.  Like all AI projects they tend to start smaller in scale and more importantly with a specific use case or business outcome needed.  For…

AI and Ethical use of data: Data Validity Part 1

As mentioned yesterday I had the pleasure of taking a course on Ethics and Data Science.  Given that data science is a key area of the Machine Learning area of AI I thought I would expand on the subject as a starting point.  Each bullet I discuss has a more detailed discussion required.  But I truly believe that Ethical/Business Conduct requirements will be needed for all AI projects in order to…

Pomodoro and Productivity Tools – Why not more integration

I have taken a short break from building my AI Bot due to work.  Sometimes priorities take over.  Which led me to wanting to make a quick note.  I have been using many productivity tools over the years: currently I use OmniFocus more than others.  I have tried Things 3, Todoist and other apps.  All very good and do things somewhat differently. I am also waiting to see what happens with OmniFocus…

AI Bot Challenge Step 2: Installing the software and getting things up and running

So I have been installing software and installing packages onto the Raspberry and completing some of the build of the TJBot.  I do have to be honest and say i ran into some fundamental issues with installing software and getting wi-fi connectivity.  But I think I am past that now.  I now have run some scripts to enable the TJBot to connect to the the Watson AI Services.   I have to choose which…

It seems a bit appropriate that my IBM Watson AI Bot Kit arrived on Robbie Burns day.  The creative of expression and excitement of a project loom and I get to salute one of Scotlands bard and rhymesters in the same evening ! Looking forward to all the fun I am supposed to have learing two to code with SparkFun ! So the box arrived and I have opened and gazed in wonder at what lays ahead on my…
