With a global workforce of 730,000, Accenture knows how businesses in virtually every market sector are getting work done, and how they're investing their tech dollars. As Accenture's Paul Daugherty explains, this mammoth consultancy knows companies' backstories because Accenture is helping to write them. In this episode of CES Tech Talk, Chief Technology and Innovation Officer Daugherty discusses how generative AI is being used, and how space-oriented technologies are rolling out. He also introduces the cinema-worthy terms “quantum supremacy” and “metaverse continuum.” Listen closely to catch Daugherty's rapid-fire insights that include these: In the health sector, generative AI applications include delivering lifesaving therapies in months versus years. Daugherty details how this may become reality sooner than many thought possible. Space technologies are emerging to address applications that include satellite collision avoidance, Earth imaging, and even interstellar financial transactions. Accenture's brilliant strategies and solutions often take root among its special teams based in the company's Accenture Labs and Accenture Ventures organizations. There are more, as Daugherty explains.

To be clear, she was only representing her own views in this episode.There's some very specific language about ontology in this episode but I think it's quite approachable for most people as a good understanding of ontology, the difference with taxonomies, and some specific insight into developing and applying an ontology.Some key takeaways/thoughts from Neda's point of view:When starting developing an ontology, it's best to start from the business questions you want to answer. It is okay to choose bottom up or top down, but the business applicability is the main point.You can convince people ontologies and knowledge graphs aren't scary or that hard to learn and leverage with a small demo of what they do and how to use them.Look for open ontologies that have already been created around your domain or area you are trying to model. They can usually be easily augmented and extended but there's no reason to reinvent the wheel.Data people need to learn enough about the domain to build the right ontologies and data models but data people learning domain knowledge can "discombobulate" them :) Get the data people with the subject matter experts to learn what's necessary.Try to keep your ontology as generic as possible but still encapsulate what you need; that way it is much easier to apply the ontology to other domains/departments. Set your ontology up to evolve as you learn more about your organization and as your organization...

An executive at an energy firm based in Britain receives a call from his boss, asking him to transfer 220,000 euros to a Hungarian vendor. He transfers the money, only to find out later that it wasn't his actual boss who called him. It was a sophisticated fake of his boss's real voice. You may have heard of “deepfakes” in the media by now. But what about the underlying technologies that power them, called GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks)? While most people probably associate deepfakes with scams or viral social media videos, there's enormous potential for using GAN technology in legitimate business applications — from product design, to synthetic data, to art and content creation. But these new technologies also present an abundance of ethical, privacy and security problems. In this episode, we'll speak with Edy Liongosari, Chief Research Scientist at Accenture Labs; Cristóbal Valenzuela, Co-Founder and C.E.O. at Runway; and David Danks, Professor of Data Science and Philosophy at the University of California, San Diego.

The intersection of technology and consumers is more prevalent today than it has ever been before. And while many of us continue to utilize the benefits of predictive technology, we’re still slightly uncomfortable with how seeps into our lives.
