Generative AI to accelerate digital transformation in legal sector

Generative AI to accelerate digital transformation in legal sector

Ultimately, law firms must invest in generative AI as those that do not will be at a competitive disadvantage. Credit: Stock Studio 4477 via Shutterstock. For the legal sector generative AI is likely to be a game-changer, promising greater efficiency and accuracy for countless routine tasks. Generative AI refers to self-learning algorithms that use existing data, such as text, audio, or images, to produce realistic new content. In 2023, it emerged as a potentially revolutionary AI technology, and GlobalData estimates that the global generative AI market will be worth $75.7bn by 2028. The emergence of generative AI in legal service delivery There has been an uptake in the use of generative AI in the sector to develop virtual assistants that provide personalised client support.

The Role of Digital Transformation in Modernizing Rail Infrastructure: Insights From Two UK Projects

The Role of Digital Transformation in Modernizing Rail Infrastructure: Insights From Two UK Projects

How are digital tools transforming rail infrastructure projects? During the Year in Infrastructure in Vancouver, Canada, DirectIndustry encountered two UK projects using digital technology to either retrofit historical systems or build new, advanced networks. (Elizabeth Line / iStock) October 25, 202416 mins How are digital tools transforming rail infrastructure projects? During the Year in Infrastructure in Vancouver, Canada, DirectIndustry encountered two UK projects using digital technology to either retrofit historical systems or build new, advanced networks. While the Elizabeth Line is leading the way in building London’s future railways, the Midland Main Line Electrification program is reimagining its past railways. One of these two projects even won the Bentley Systems’ 2024 digital award. Global infrastructure is facing growing challenges. These include a surge in demand for more resilient energy grids, modernized transportation networks, and retrofitting existing structures to meet sustainability goals. These projects require immense investments and time. The problem is a lack of skilled engineers to hamper progress. As the infrastructure sector focuses on sustainable development, it must prioritize optimizing and adapting the infrastructure already in place. Experts say over 95% of the infrastructure that will be in use by 2030 already exists. READ ALSO For Nicholas Cumins, […]

Digital transformation in emerging markets through geospatial innovation

Digital transformation in emerging markets through geospatial innovation

Opinions of Friday, 25 October 2024 Disclaimer Columnist: Emmanuel Sampson Emmanuel Sampson, Business Development Consultant, West and Central Africa Introduction Digital transformation is rapidly reshaping industries, economies, and societies worldwide. In emerging markets, where infrastructure and resources are often limited, the shift towards digital solutions has proven to be particularly impactful. One of the most promising areas of this transformation is the use of geospatial technology. Tools such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), satellite imagery, and remote sensing are helping businesses and governments in developing regions, particularly in Africa, to unlock new efficiencies, improve decision-making, and drive sustainable growth (Mponela et al., 2023). This article examines how geospatial technologies are accelerating digital transformation in emerging markets, with a particular focus on Africa, and explores how these innovations create a lasting impact. The Role of Digital Transformation in Emerging Markets Digital transformation refers to the integration of digital technologies into all areas of business, fundamentally changing how they operate and deliver value to customers (World Bank, 2021). In emerging markets, this transformation offers an opportunity to leapfrog traditional stages of development, bypassing the need for legacy infrastructure and transitioning directly to digital solutions (UNCTAD, 2020). The adoption of digital technologies […]

Education Sector’s Digital Transformation

Education Sector’s Digital Transformation

Education is overdue for a transformation. For decades, traditional learning meant lecture halls, rigid schedules, and a hefty price tag. But that model no longer fits the needs of society. Digital transformation is disrupting how we think about education, careers, and the skills needed to succeed in the modern workforce. In this article, Charlotte Chaze, CEO and Founder of Break Into Tech, elaborates on how digital transformation is reshaping the education sector. This article is published in line with the Digital Transformation and AI Awards and Summit . To exhibit at the event, please get in touch at +44 (0)203 931 5827. The Rise of Accessible Learning For too long, traditional education has been a barrier – it’s expensive, time-consuming, and disconnected from the real world. Today, 37% of Americans criticise traditional higher education for not teaching relevant skills, while 28% are concerned about the high cost and student debt . Digital transformation is helping break down these barriers and open learning to anyone, anywhere. Whether you’re working full-time, raising kids, or just looking to pivot careers to increase your income, barriers to learning new skills are lower than ever. Between online courses, certifications, and self-paced programs, flexible and […]

Highway to digitization is essential for the auto industry

Highway to digitization is essential for the auto industry

Shanghai Aerial highway junction Explore the latest results from Wolters Kluwer’s Auto Finance Digital Transformation Index Today’s automobile consumers have come to expect a fast, seamless, and user-friendly digital experience at every stage of the lending process. As a result, digital adoption has become critical for auto lenders who wish to enhance customer satisfaction and remain competitive. Those who fail to embrace the digital journey not only risk falling behind, but forfeit the opportunity to harness the significant advantages afforded by digitization, including enhanced efficiency and the ability to capitalize on emerging technologies. Aligning the consumer-facing side of the auto industry with the back end Although digital transformation in the automotive industry initially focused on the consumer-facing side ― with innovations such as online car shopping platforms, virtual showrooms, and AI-driven chatbots ― the findings of the most recent Auto Finance Digital Transformation Index indicate that key advancements are continuing on the back end. As consumers increasingly embrace the ability to complete transactions in which technology facilitates much of the process, it is imperative that the industry continues to align the consumer-facing side of digitization with the back end ― the complex web of operations, logistics, and administrative processes […]

German Federal Foreign Office uses AI to get personal

German Federal Foreign Office uses AI to get personal

With more than 230 missions, the German Federal Foreign Office needed a new structure to answer inquiries. With AI, its FACIL solution limits human interaction by rapidly addressing questions. Credit: Shutterstock With about 12,000 employees worldwide, along with offices in Bonn and Berlin and approximately 230 missions, the reach of the German Federal Foreign Office is vast, connecting with citizens abroad, along with other governments and international organizations. But in the modern age, the agency realized that its system of digitally managing citizen requests was outdated. The pressure was on to adopt a modern, flexible, and scalable system to route questions to the proper source and provide the necessary answers. But how? AI clears the way For years, requests were processed in a way that was highly individual, depending on the department and mission, usually via email. Not only was this time-consuming and difficult, but information tended to become muddled or lost along the way, with inquiries sometimes dispatched to the wrong place. A better-designed structure was needed to standardize answers, foster efficiency and collaboration, and proactively solve problems on a global scale. That would mean developing a platform using artificial intelligence (AI) to gain insights into the past, […]
