It is delivering mixed results with constant innovation in process. Organizations, however, are doing their best to ensure that Artificial Intelligence remains strictly in focus with cognitive computing getting the boost necessary for it to flourish. IBM's effort to establish itself as one of the pioneers and eventual leaders in this domain can only be seen as an extension of this process as it attempts to lure more and more businesses in this field. How to do more with such technology? Cognitive computing is like a newborn kid which can grow up to become anything and its sheer unpredictability makes it an easy tool of ex...
