About AI & Analytics: Artificial intelligence (AI) and the data it collects and analyzes will soon sit at the core of all committed, human-centric businesses. By decoding customer needs, preferences, and behaviors, our clients can understand exactly what services, products, and experiences their consumers need. Within AI & Analytics, we work to craft the future-a future in which trial-and-error business decisions have been replaced by informed choices and data-supported strategies.
