systems.
Artificial Intelligence
Cognitive Robotics/ Virtual Agents
Systems that gain knowledge from
data as “experience” and generalize
what is learned in upcoming situations.
Sense, comprehend, act – and learn.
Natural language dialogue.
Multiple screens are consolidated into
a single view for the operator thus
saving the time to toggle between
screens. Suitable for contact center
type applications.
Applying technology to manipulate
existing application software to
complete a process. Primarily based
on XL, AutoHotKey, or Visual Basic.

AI: IT Systems that can Sense, Comprehend, Act – and Learn
Maybe the Most Disruptive Emerging Technology on the Horizon
Artificial Intelligence enables machines to interact naturally with their
environment, people and data. These systems create more intuitive interactions
and extend the capabilities of what either human or machine can do on their own.
From coding to training
AI enables intelligent systems that learn from a body of knowledge
without analyzing and coding all business rules manually.
Advances in machine learning, coupled with big
data and cheap, ubiquitous cloud computing
will unleash remarkable new potential for
organizations across industries.

AI: IT Systems that can Sense, Comprehend, Act – and Learn
A Collection of Technologies Underpinned by Machine Learning
Artificial Intelligence encompasses
multiple technologies that enable
computers to
•
perceive the world (e.g.,
computer vision, audio
processing or sensor
processing)
•
analyze and understand the
information collected (e.g.,
natural language processing or
knowledge representation)
•
make informed decisions
(e.g., inference engines,
machine learning/deep learning
or expert systems)

Artificial Intelligence History
Various Attempts and “Winters” since Computing was Invented
Initial research focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI), "the science aiming to create intelligent
machines that are as capable as humans.”

Secondary Research
Distinction between “strong” and “weak” AI. Also, recently, the focus has shifted from AI to
Intelligence Augmentation (IA), intelligent systems that can support humans in their activities.

Case Study: Auto Insurance Claims Processing
Automated Classification of Car Damage Level
Classify if a car is
undamaged (new),
damaged or totaled
Problem Statement
• An Insurance Company wanted to automate claims processing using advanced machine learning technology, namely Deep Learning.
• When customers sent a picture of their damaged car, the Company would like to have the ability of automatically detect the level of
damage and use it to, for example, order spare parts and possibly detect fraud, if any.
• Accenture developed a Convolutional Neural Network algorithm (which belongs to the family of Deep Learning techniques) using a data
set of toy images.
•90% accuracy achieved.
Value Delivered
• By automatically detecting level of damage, an Insurance Company saves on sending a human to assess the damage
• Apply the same technique for more use cases and other lines of businesses like Home Insurance with enhanced complexity and accuracy
For Auto Insurance, spare parts could be ordered automatically
For Home Insurance, evaluate building resistance, check if customers are telling the truth about additions to houses, identify multiple damages
Similarities/differences in damage patterns could be used to detect fraud

•
Phase I established the end-to-end flow where most customer enquiries
would be escalated to human agents and “observed”.
•
Phase II increases the Customer Experience scope, to enable a virtual
agent to answer 25-35% of customer inquiries, including:
Urgent
Payment
Requests
(18%)
•
Invoice
Statements
(12%)
Missing
Invoices –
Not Due (8%)
Offline
Processes
and follow
ups
Redirects
(6%)
MySupplier
Portal Access
and Updates
(3%)
Remittance
Query (7%)
Phase II also introduces Cognitive Robotics to access WQM (BMC
Remedy) to trigger events.

Turning Artificial Intelligence into Business Value
•
Cognitive technologies promise to
automate or augment a wide range
of work activities that today are
largely done by humans, including
manual workers and knowledge
workers.
•
Delivering business value from
artificial intelligence requires
understanding the nature of the work
being done along two dimensions:
Data Complexity: degree to which
complex unstructured changing data
needs to be taken into account
o Work Complexity: degree to which
individuals need to apply their
judgment and interpret a variety of
information
