AI Religious Index - Improving AI Readiness for Your Organization

Introduction

Hello everybody, nice to meet You. I am Temple, assistant head of AI resort and standards from AI Singapore. It's great to have you here. In this presentation, I will explain to you what is AI Religious Index and how it could help your organization in adopting AI.

About the Presenter

Since 2017, AI Singapore has engaged more than 500 companies through our 100 experiments and advisory programs. We noticed common misconceptions about AI across different industries and companies.

Common Misconceptions About AI

The first common misconception is that AI is only about getting the web algorithms. However, AI is beyond just algorithm. It involves having the right talent to identify good use cases for AI. The Second common misconception is that AI adoption can be achieved by simply buying AI solutions and making them available to employees. However, AI requires employees to be AI literate to understand its limitations and trust its results. The last common misconception especially from SMEs is that AI is only for larger and tech-savvy organizations. However, not every organization needs to be a developer of AI solution. An organization could be a consumer of AI solutions that is really made an end-to-end instead of developing one from scratch.

Understanding AI Readiness

Defining AI Religious Index

Naturally, we receive questions from our organization such as how do I know whether my organization is ready for AI and if not how do I get my organization ready for AI? These questions motivate us to Create the AI Religious Index -- an industry-focused AI readiness assessment framework developed by AI Singapore based on hundreds of engagements AI Singapore has with companies across different industry sizes and AI readiness.

Benefits of AI Religious Index

The AI Religious Index consists of four pillars that map to nine different Dimensions. The four pillars are interdependent and synergistic. Organizations with strong organizational readiness could identify good use cases, thereby contributing to business value readiness. The use cases are supported by data readiness with established data policy, processes, and practices to ensure accuracy, reliability, and completeness of data. Infrastructure readiness helps students idea into actions by providing the organization with the tools and technology to train, host, and deploy AI solutions. The four main pillars of AI Religious Index collectively provide a holistic assessment of an organization's readiness to adopt AI.

Four Pillars of AI Religious Index

Organizational Readiness

Organizational readiness is about establishing the right talent and processes to adopt AI. The talent could be in-house, outsourced or a combination of both. Companies with strong organizational readiness could identify good use cases for their business.

Business Value Readiness

Business value readiness is about creating business value from AI adoption. Companies that have well-defined use cases for their business could enjoy increased productivity, reduced costs, and increased revenue.

Data Readiness

Data readiness is about having the right data governance framework in place to ensure data accuracy, reliability, and completeness.

Infrastructure Readiness

Infrastructure readiness is about having the right systems and tools to support AI solution training, hosting, and deployment.

Assessing AI Readiness

Classifications Based on AI Religious Index

So how could AI Religious Index help organizations with adopting AI? Based on the responses, AI Religious Index will classify the organization into either AR Unaware, AI Aware, Already AI Competent. This will allow an organization to understand its Current profile and identify gaps between what they are currently at and what they desire to be. Thereby allowing the company to implement suitable programs to improve their AI readiness.

Suitable Approaches for Different Classifications

For instance, AI Unaware and AI Aware companies generally lack the capabilities to develop AI models. The recommended approach for them is to adopt AI solutions that are already made end-to-end instead of developing one from scratch. Note that the size of the enterprise does not dictate AI readiness. Instead, it is the result of each dimension assessed under AI Religious Index that determines the organizational AI readiness.

Improving AI Readiness

Targeted Approaches Based on Religious Level

We also want to highlight that not every enterprise needs to reach AI Competent. The right level of awareness is dependent on the organization's business strategy. Another benefit of AI Religious Index is that it allows the organization to adopt targeted approaches to improve their AI readiness.

Based on AI Religious Index, AI Unaware companies could start with AI for everyone to improve their organizational readiness. Once they reach the AI Aware stage, they could explore other suitable programs to target different areas of the organization, such as AI for Industry, to further develop their organizational AI capabilities.

Engagement of External Providers

If organizations prefer, they could also engage external providers for programs that improve specific dimensions identified under AI readiness.
