EMERGING TRENDS Introduction AI is changing the way of life for the better. Not only that, but it is revolutionizing industries. AI Lightbox focuses on three major aspects in our Emerging Trends Annual Report. The goal of this report is to help educate the greater Western community on the importance of AI from a non- technical point of view. AI Lightbox compromises of three analysts from diverse backgrounds who have delved into extensive research on the following areas: • The workforce of the future: re-defining roles & responsibilities in the workforce to invite technology into the workplace • Marketing reimagined: Envisioning a new way of personalized customer interaction • Healthcare transformation: Driving a patient-centered approach to reinvent the healthcare experience

Due to technological advances, roles and responsibilities within the organization will need to be redefined and adjusted to enable smooth interactions between technology and its users. Why? • Digital disruption: Need to successfully transition the workforce to adapt to and profit from the 4th industrial revolution1 • Solution: Designing a workforce based on what it will need to succeed in defined strategic scenarios 5-10 years ahead Current status2: • Only 26% of Canadian CEOs are preparing for this shift • Lack of vulnerable labour supply, 48% global companies are hiring ahead of growth • Can’t successfully transition operations without the right skills 1 Courlas, S.

1 | The Workforce of the Future 2 | Marketing Reimagined 3 | Healthcare Transformation CONCLUSIONS EMERGING TRENDS Conclusion #1 Metrics for Success All three organizations reported varying degrees of productivity improvements from their deployments of AI . Conclusion #2 Buy-in from management1 All three instances of AI implementations entailed changes for the way labor operates: • Successful adoption of new AI systems required buy-in from sometimes a shift in the roles humans take on, compared with technology; sometimes management and the workforce alike. In doing so, having intelligible a shift in the skills humans must possess to thrive in their roles; and sometimes a shift ML models was of paramount importance. in the number of humans required to complete a process or deliver a service. Conclusion #3 Short-term ROI growth1 As skilled workers retire, and as companies face increased industrial pressure to • Each firm reported productivity or ROI growth in the short term, but operate leanly, companies may decide to cut jobs, rather than shift their workers into in all cases, these effects could not be attributed solely to AI, as other other areas. process changes always accompanied the introduction of AI technologies. Conclusion #4 Though each case subject experienced certain common themes, their particular experiences implementing AI were also informed and constrained by the relevant Varying workforce impacts1 contexts in which the organizations exist. • There were varying impacts on the local workforce due to the adoption of AI systems and no reported layoffs to date, but the effects were difficult to measure internally and in some cases, cascaded beyond the firms we studied into their third-party vendors and broader business ecosystems. 1 AI, Labor, and the Economy Case Study Compendium.

The solution is able to produce thousands of machine-written messages in minutes. eBay – the online shopping site best known for its customer-to- customer auction style selling. With billions of products to choose from and millions of customers to serve, eBay was looking for a way to make each customer feel like they were the only person in Personalized email subject lines the world that mattered1. eBay is able to write and test thousands of different personalized email subject lines with millions of customers, in a fraction of the time it takes eBay was able to make the business more efficient and effective in human copywriters. making the job of human copywriters far more rewarding. The story is a perfect example of how artificial intelligence can: • Be far from a technology to fear Reallocation of eBay jobs • Can enhance and augment the work of human marketers Instead of having human copywriters guess which subject lines will work, eBay’s copywriters now focus their time on building the next innovative campaign – and make sure any copywriting, human or machine, resonates with customers and stays on-brand. 1 Kaput, M.

Health Care Transformation
1 | The Workforce of the Future 2 | Marketing Reimagined 3 | Healthcare Transformation EMERGING TRENDS Healthcare Transformation Data from Accenture estimates AI in healthcare will be a $6.6 billion market by 2021. AI startups have raised $4.3 billion across 576 deals in the last 6 years, and healthcare providers are projected to save almost $150 billion by 2026 with the help of AIs that can prevent medication dosing errors1. Five distinct trends are converging, which means robotics will come to define new health: • Value challenge • Explosion of health data • Information technology • Increasing democratization of access for healthcare • Willingness of the general public 1 PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Patient Trust & Data Commons: Privacy, Security and Health Data Use1 General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) authorized Member States to permit processing of health data without consent where it is necessary for scientific research purposes or for public interest in public health. Ethical Considerations Related to AI in Health Care1 Adequate transparency must involve transparency not only about how the AI system explains results – teaching users what to expect from systems, how to interpret their results, and the extent to which they can be meaningfully relied upon in clinical decision-making. 1 Healthcare, Artificial Intelligence, Data and Ethics - 2030 Vision.
