If you are an IT executive and thinking to outsource your IT systems design and implementation - but not to China or India, but to an AI ... this may be for you.
No business is static. The static ones tend to fall by the wayside as customers change their ways and want something better.
And every system needs tweaking fix problems and cope with unintended consequences ...
Change is the order of the day for any IT system, and especially the new ones navigating the bathtub curve for the first time.
How will your shiny new AI-designed systems cope with the requirement for change?

We could proffer a list, but some whiz-kid would set to and prove us wrong in no time.
But this one looks reasonable ... even if I do believe that there should be more than one thing on the list. One will do for a start.

Will the AI world end in Utopia or Nightmare?
Will the AI rule us, or "enhance" us as the WEF would have it, so that we will work for them, own nothing, and be "happy" (define "happy")?
Or will we somehow wriggle out from under and make use of an AI that is our faithful servant?
Or that appears to us to be our faithful servant, much as Parliament has contrived (but ultimately failed) to appear to us? I would place quite a large bet on the AI making a vastly better fist of appearing to us as our servant whilst manipulating us into complying with what it wants us to do, than Parliament.
Perhaps the ultimate AI would be called "Jeeves", would know us (and our relatives friends and acquaintances) better than we know ourselves, and would always know how to politely and resourcefully get us out of the scrapes that we get ourselves into.
Perhaps a "Jeeves" prototype is already Donald Trump's secret assistant?
Anyway, Jeeves sounds more fun to me than Yuval Noah Harari's vision of "Utopia".
But we digress ...
Perhaps the real questions we have to ask are these:
- Why are we here - what is the objective of our existence?
- What kind of AI would help us to achieve that objective?
Answers on a post card please (or email if you are insufferably hooked on technology) to the usual address.
Late News:
The latest AI may be AGI ... incoming soon, probably from a supplier far away from you.

If you have been following this site for a little while you may have noticed that we don't confine ourselves to any particular theme or subject-matter - our purpose (however well or badly achieved) is simply to challenge our readers to 'think outside the box".
Basically I roam wherever my fancy takes me, or wherever the tram-lines of mainstream media need to be challenged. I try not to present conclusions - reaching conclusions, possibly even just recognising possible conclusions, is your task.
Conjuring with concepts is a favoured ploy - can we align outwardly different concepts alongside each other to identify previously unrecognised linkage?
With what new insights might we terrify ourselves?!
Perhaps unexpectedly, AI can be a engine which does precisely that. But can AI, that robustly logical machine, really conjure unexpected insights from its 100% logical workings?
It's your view that counts!

Mark Playne of NOTONTHEBEEB plays another game with his AI - can it refute his suggested arguments?
It's a contest, but does the AI really address all the points made?
It's your view that counts - we are all going to have to learn to live with AI, so we need to get to grips.
And here's another AI-based theme from Investor's Daily that has a glaring great hole in it (according to me!) - can you find it?
