Anyone defining requirements for digital solutions must keep up with new trends in technology such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data to remain relevant in the workforce.
The requirements elicitation and analysis process is just as crucial for AI initiatives as it is for any other project. Business stakeholders and technical experts like data scientists, chatbot developers, or machine learning engineers involved in an AI project need to collaborate to produce a successful product.
