Business Impact of Adopting Emerging Technology: Challenges and Opportunities with Alan Morrison

In the 18th episode of The AI Digest Podcast, we delve into the world of data; collection, analysis, forecasting, and its impact in business with the esteemed Alan Morrison, co-founder of the Data Worthy Collective.

Join us as our host, Joaquin Melara, engages in an insightful conversation with Alan Morrison about his journey from engineering chip demand forecasting to pioneering thorough analysis on emerging technologies at PwC. This episode promises to be an eye-opener as we navigate through Alan's broad ranging background, from collecting intelligence in the Navy, to becoming a marketing analyst in the semiconductor industry, to publishing for the R&D arm of PwC.

What stands out in this interview is the emphasis on the necessity of data literacy and the challenges of data integration in enterprises, given a lot of people in the industry might not be aware of what is out there or be able to prioritize or timeline how to merge new technologies.

Watch this episode to understand the complexities of Data and AI in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.

EPISODE TAKEAWAYS:
1- There is a major need for enterprise folk to understand the importance of data literacy so that they can be better informed when it comes to merging new technologies.
2- Data has been an afterthought for many years given the dominance of application-centric organizations imposing fragmented and disjointed data models.
3- You need to work in the informal aspects of an organization with the foxes and eventually the hedgehogs in small, incremental ways.

"Success and confidence come from pushing yourself into new, uncomfortable experiences. It's about getting your feet wet, taking chances, and stepping out into the big world. True growth happens when you dare to make yourself uncomfortable and embrace the unfamiliar. I really admire people who take these brave steps early on." - Alan Morrison
