Accenture UK & Ireland

We've launched our new generative AI studio at The Dock, Dublin. Clients from all industries will be able to visit the new studio to explore industry use cases, conduct #AI pilots, and rapidly initiate and scale responsible programmes. 🙌   "With the Gen AI studio, we’re working with client teams from around the world to unlock value across their organisation. This starts with establishing trust in the technology and the decisions made by leaders about it. In the studio, we roll up our sleeves with them to answer the big questions: on the value for their business and customer; on the model and tech to use; on reskilling talent, and on how to do all of it responsibly. We walk out with a clear plan of where to get started on a journey of continuous reinvention." Enda King, Director of The Dock.   Thank you to everyone involved. We're thrilled to provide companies in Ireland with the best ideas and capabilities to shape solutions 📈   #IrishBusiness Image description: Hilary O'Meara, Enda King, Julie Sweet and Denis Hannigan (L-R) stand laughing in conversation ahead of a purple. gently textured digital screen reading "Gen AI is the #1 driver of reinvention today.'

In our latest episode of #WalkInTheCloud, Liz Barnsdale discusses the potential of #AI to bring us back to a more human place in our interactions. Whether it's through personalisation, efficiency, connection, or availability, AI has the power to transform our experiences. What was your take on this in our recent poll? Let us know in the comments! ⬇️ Listen here: https://accntu.re/3Xjzea9 [Image description: An illustration of a person moving boxes with 'A' and 'I' written on them.

AI truly came to life during this week's The AI Summit in London. We’re thrilled to have been part of this important conversation, together with industry leaders and innovators. Here are some key takeaways from our speakers’ sessions Emma Kendrew, Matt Prebble and Fernando Lucini: • People-first solutions: Emphasising technology that benefits everyone is crucial, as #GenerativeAI can either reduce or increase socio-economic disparities. Our societal approach to AI deployment will influence whether we promote social mobility or worsen existing inequalities. • Leadership role: Clarity in decision-making is essential. Companies that identify critical decisions and use technology to enhance decision-making have historically thrived and will continue to do so. #DecisionScience • Data is king: A robust data architecture is the backbone of any AI project. It's not just about data collection but about using it for personalisation, security enhancement, and service differentiation. Optimising these systems is key to success.

Workplace scams are growing increasingly common. Deepfakes can be created by #GenerativeAI, with audio and facial recognition algorithms creating uncannily accurate likenesses. But #AI is not just a threat. It can also help businesses stay safe! AI can help gather information, enable quicker identification of #cybersecurity risks and speed up decision-making. Find out more in the latest episode of #WalkInTheCloud, where Jacky Fox explains three key areas AI intersects with cybersecurity. https://accntu.re/3UJEUsh [Image description: A simple illustrated image with title 'Walk in the Cloud' and subtitle 'Cybersecurity & AI: Are You Risk-Ready?'.
