As artificial intelligence (AI) changes industries at a dizzyingly rapid pace, industries and governments alike are just beginning to grapple with the implications of the groundbreaking technology. One major issue has come to the foreground: data privacy concerns. Between possible data breaches and companies using your data to train their own models (and perhaps helping your competition in the process), enterprises have concerns.

Robotic process automation (RPA) refers to the use of software robots, or "bots," that mimic human actions to automate repetitive tasks within business processes.

Bank turmoil associated with recent bank failures has highlighted the importance of due diligence for managing financial risk, growing revenue, and retaining jittery customers.

It’s hard to stay compliant when customer data is spread across multiple operational silos.

Large-scale enterprise modernization initiatives are taking place across the public sector, with agencies striving to gain efficiencies through better use of more modern technologies, such as low-code platforms, and employing data in novel ways in the decision-making process.

Process efficiency might not be flashy, but its impact is substantial. Improving process efficiency—from developing new applications faster to automating manual tasks—can amount to millions in savings. According to a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study, conducted by Forrester Consulting and commissioned by Appian, a composite organization comprised of interviewees with experience using Appian realized: How exactly are customers realizing these benefits?
