Building an AI Red Team to Stop Problems Before They Start

Hiring new figures to lead the data revolution It has been said that this new wave of exponential technologies will threaten a lot of jobs, both blue and white-collar ones. But if from one hand many roles will disappear, from the other hand in the very short-term we are observing new people coming out from the crowd to lead this revolution and set the pace. These are the people who really understand both the technicalities of the problems as well as have a clear view of the business implications of the new technologies and can easily plan how to embed those new capabilities in enterprise contexts. Hence, I am going to briefly present three of them, i.e., the , the and the . Sad to be said, I never heard about a ‘ ’, but for some strange reasons, the role is usually called either ‘ ’ or (as if data scientist won’t deserve someone at C-level to lead their efforts). Chief Data Officer (CDO) Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer (CAIO) Chief Robotics Officer (CRO) Chief of Data Science Head of Data Science ‘Chief Analytics Officer’ Let’s see then who they are and what they would be useful for. I. The Chief Data Officer (CDO) A slide taken from one of the speakers at the illustrating business drivers and capabilities and how they related to the CDO job. CDO Summit in London Apparently, it is a new role born in a lighter form straight after the financial crisis springing from the need to have a central figure to deal with technology, regulation and reporting. Therefore, the CDO is basically the guy who acts as a (tech guy) (data guy) and takes care of data quality and data management. liaison between the CTO and the CAO/Head of Data Science Actually, its final goal is . to guarantee that everyone can get access to the right data in virtually no time In that sense, a CDO is the guy in charge of ‘democratizing data’ within the company. It is not a static role, and it evolved from simply being a to being a , with the tasks of defining data management policies and business priorities, shaping not only the data strategy, but also the frameworks, procedures, and tools. In other words, he is a kind of ‘ ’ (if we agree on the distinctions between ). facilitator data governor Chief of Data Engineers data scientists, who actually deal with modeling, and data engineers, who deal with data preparation and data flow “The difference between a CIO and CDO (apart from the words data and information…) is best described using the bucket and water analogy. The CIO is responsible for the bucket, ensuring that it is complete without any holes in it, the bucket is the right size with just a little bit of spare room but not too much and its all in a safe place. The CDO is responsible for the liquid you put in the bucket, ensuring that it is the right liquid, the right amount and that’s not contaminated. The CDO is also responsible for what happens to the liquid, and making the clean vital liquid is available for the business to slake its thirst.” (Caroline Carruthers, Chief Data Officer Network Rail, and Peter Jackson, Head of Data Southern Water) I don’t want to get into what a Chief Information Officer does and how he differs from a CDO, a CTO, a CRO, or any other roles, but if you want to know more I highly recommend ’s free ebook ( ). Julie Steele see here Interestingly enough, the role of the CDO as we described it is both and . It spans indeed across the entire organization even though the CDO still needs to report to someone else in the organizational chart. Who the CDO reports to will be largely determined by the organization he is operating in. Furthermore, it is also relevant to highlight that a CDO can be found more likely in larger organizations rather than small startups. The latter type is indeed usually set up to be data-driven (with a ) and therefore the CDO function is already embedded in the role who designs the technological infrastructure/data pipeline. vertical horizontal forward-looking approach It is also true that not every company has a CDO, so how do you decide to eventually get one? Well, simply out of internal necessity, strict incoming regulation, and because all your business intelligence projects are failing because of data issues. If you have any of these problems, you might need someone who pushes the “ ” principle as the data approach to be adopted throughout the entire organization, who considers data as a company asset and wants to set the fundamentals to allow fast trial and error experimentations. And above all, someone . fail-fast who is centrally liable and accountable for anything about data A CDO is then the end-to-end data workflow responsible and it oversees the entire data value chain. Finally, if the CDO will do his job in a proper way, you’ll be able to see two different outcomes: first of all, the board will stop asking for quality data and will have clear in mind what every team is doing. Second, and most important, a good CDO aims to create an organization where a CDO has no reasons to exist. It is counterintuitive, but basically, a CDO will do a great job when the company won’t need a CDO anymore because . every line of business will be responsible and liable for their own data A good CDO aims to create an organization where a CDO has no reasons to exist. In order to reach his final goal, he needs to prove from the beginning that not investing in higher data quality and frictionless data transfer might be a source of inefficiency in business operations, resulting in non-optimized IT operations and making compliance as well as analytics much less effective. II. The Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer (CAIO) Image Credit: pexels.com If the CDO is somehow an already consolidated role, the CAIO is nothing more than a mere industry hypothesis (not sure I have seen one yet, although the strong ongoing discussions between AI experts and sector players — see and for two opposite views on the topic). Moreover, the creation of this new role highlights the emergence of two different schools of thought of enterprise AI, i.e., , and a clear cost-benefit analysis to understand which approach will work better is still missing. here here centralized vs decentralized AI implementation My two cents are that elevating AI to be represented at the board level means to really become an AI-driven company and embed AI into every product and process within your organization — and I bet not everyone is ready for that. So, let’s try to sketch at a glance the most common themes to consider when talking about a CAIO: ( : a CAIO is someone who should be able to connect the dots and (this is ’s view, by the way). If you also want to have a deeper look at what a CAIO job description would look like, the article by ; Responsibilities what he does) apply AI across data and functional silos Andrew Ng check out here Tarun Gangwani ( ): you only need to do it if you understand that and business processes; Relevance should you hire a CAIO? AI is no longer a competitive advantage to your business but rather a part of your core product ( ): first and more important, a CAIO has to be a ‘guiding light’ within the AI community because he will be one of your decisive assets . This means that he needs to be highly respected and trusted, which is something that comes only with a strong understanding of . Finally, being a cross-function activity, he needs to have the right balance between and (he needs to support different lines of business); Skills how do you pick the right guy? to win the AI talent war foundational technologies and data infrastructure willingness to risk and experiment to foster innovation attention to product and company needs ( ): there are two main risks, which are i) the misalignment between technology and business focus (you tend to put more attention on technology rather than business needs), and ii) every problem will be tackled with AI tools, which might not be that efficient (this type of guys are super trained and will be highly paid, so it is natural they will try to apply AI to everything). Risks is a smart move hiring a CAIO? Where do I stand on that? Well, my view is that a CAIO is something which makes sense, . It is an essential position to allow a smooth transition for companies who strive for becoming AI-driven firms, but I don’t see the role to be any different from what a smart tech CEO of the future should do (of course, supported by the right lower management team). However, for the next decade having a centralized function with the task of using AI (50% of the time) (50% of the time) it sounds extremely appealing to me. even though only temporarily to support the business lines and foster innovation internally In spite of all the predictions I can make, the reality is that the relevance of a CAIO will be determined by how we will end up approaching AI, i.e., whether it will be eventually considered a mere instrument or rather a proper business unit ( AI-as-a-tool) ( AI-as-a-function) . III. The Chief Robotics Officer (CRO) Image Credit: Jackie Niam/Shutterstock We moved from the CDO role, which has been around for a few years now, to the CAIO one, which is close to being embedded in organizational charts. But the Chief Robotics Officer is a completely different story. Even if someone is speaking about the importance of it (check out this if you like), it is really not clear what his tasks would be and what kind of benefits would bring to a company, and envisaging this role requires a huge leap of imagination and optimism about the future of work (and business). report In few words, what a CRO will be supposed to take care of is . To use Gartner’s words, ‘ ’. He will be responsible of the overall automatization of workflows and to integrate them smoothly into the normal design process and daily activities. managing the automated workforce of the company he will oversee the blending of human and robotic workers I am not sure I get the importance of this holistic approach to enterprise automation, although I recognize the relevance of having a central figure who will actively keep track and communicate to employees all the changes made in transforming a manual activity/process into an automated one. Another interesting point is who the CRO will report to, which is of course shaped by his real functions and goals. If robotics is deeply routed into the company and allows to create or access new markets, . If his goal is instead to automatize internal processes to achieve a higher efficiency, or to a strategic CxO (varying on industry and vertical). a CRO might directly report to the CEO he will likely report to the COO My hypothesis is that this is going to be a (and not a technical one, as you might infer from the name) which, as the CAIO, might have a positive impact in the short term ( ) but no reason to exist in the longer term. It is easier to think about it in physical product industries rather than digital products or services companies, but automation will likely happen in a faster way in the latter, so we will end up having a (to manage the supply chain workflow) as well as a (to manage instead the automation of processes and activities). strategic role especially in managing the costs of adopting early robotics technologies Chief of Physical Robotics Officer Chief of Digital Robotics Officer There is any other new emerging role you have seen in the space? If so, which is this new role and what functions/tasks does it entail?

The new CxO gang: data, AI, and robotics

The fact that airlines function at all is incredible for those who know how they work. Airlines are hubs of communication in a way, as they are involved with maintenance, security, reservation details, baggage, flight delays, passenger logistics, and cancellations. They track baggage, travel arrangements, as well as passenger loyalty points. Distributors and tourist agencies, for instance, need to track airline details, too, and if information goes afoul, travelers and airlines can lose hundreds to millions of dollars, at best. At worst, cracks in data protection can lead to a disaster. Luckily, blockchain technology (with its transparent ledger and smart contracts) shows potential in helping each of these different layers of communication know exactly what’s going on moment to moment. It can collaboratively update important information, keep airline and passenger data secure, contract ticket conditions for smooth flow, and refund money if any of the conditions are broken. The Problems Airlines have several problems, foremost of which is that there is no single source of truth about flight data, and the data that does exist is not easily accessible by all parties. This is known as the “flight data problem.” While there are many cases of airlines and airports collaborating to share flight data, this data still resides in separate silos. The result is that when there are flight delays, passenger apps, airport flight information display systems, airline websites, their telephone reservation systems and agents give contradictory information. This may result in a loss to the airline’s reputation, the loss of time and money for that airline, travellers, and stakeholders, and it can result in costly litigations. USA Today, for instance, the database website masFlight.com and highlighted that cancelled flights cost airlines, stranded passengers, and corporate companies millions of dollars. cited The existence of fractured, centralized information also leads to other problems, like websites shutting down or becoming hacked, airlines unable to track their maintenance needs, and the struggle to track passengers and baggage. That’s where the blockchain comes in with its developing technology that’s slanted to help airlines improve customer experience and safety. Blockchain solutions: For the airline With 3.8 billion air travelers in 2016, as well as air travel projected to double over the next 19 years, the airline industry has its work cut out for them. They need to provide maximum security and safety, show responsiveness and care, display efficacy, and communicate with their stakeholders and travelers in a timely manner. according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), And it’s with the following areas where the blockchain is about to take off: Ticketing — Most airlines provide the option of e-tickets in order to smooth over the passenger’s flight. E-tickets are, in essence, the customer’s travel details that are stored in and retrieved from a massive database. The blockchain can use smart contracts to add business logic and terms and conditions around how that ticket is sold and used, which can help the tickets be sold by different partners, and in real time from anywhere in the world. Passenger information — The amount of data shared in real time is enormous. Forget about coordinating flights. Even when tracking passengers on a single flight, each airline has to, at the bare minimum, keep track of when a passenger has checked in for their flights, when their tickets are scanned as they board, and where their bags are in reference to their final destination. Airlines do not want another PR disaster like where a man was forcefully dragged from an overbooked United flight in Chicago. Once the decentralized ledger achieves the same data speed as centralized websites, the blockchain can use its unique qualities of transparency and collaborativeness to prevent overbooking and revenue loss. United’s Dr. Dao incident, Cancelled or delayed flights — Airlines have to notify passengers of scheduled changes at least 14 days before they occur, otherwise passengers receive compensation or a refund. Recently, for flight delays. Understandably, the airlines were none too pleased, but , aside from which flight data resides in different silos (folders, categories, different IT processes or systems) so travelers tend to receive contradictory information. In time, the blockchain could present this single point of truth, with stakeholders providing up-to-date and verified information that saves airlines both money and stress. India proposed higher compensation they are not always able to know or prevent changes in time Maintenance — In 2017, the blockchain as a digital ledger shared by airlines, MRO teams, and OEMs to record flight events, operation conditions, and scheduled aircraft maintenance checks. Airlines have to ensure that all data about the status of an engine or other parts are up to date and securely shared by all interested parties. At the moment, airline maintenance logs are in cumbersome databases or, at worst, in paper binders. The blockchain can collate all of that information and verify that all parts are legitimate, while offering a real-time record of repairs, purchases, construction, and maintenance checks. This visibility can take aircraft security to whole new levels. IBM proposed Security and identity — Airlines have the crucial responsibility of protecting passenger records, flight manifests, and crew information. In May 2018, the digital security company and found that only six scored a perfect ranking. Most airlines, including Delta Airlines and Southwest Airlines, achieved an average rating. Data protection in today’s insecure world cannot be understated. Blockchain technology with its high resilience to hacking can provide a far less risky method of storing and sharing information through the use of authorized access requirements. Dashlane tested the password of 55 airline websites Resilience to hacking and glitches — Because airline industries are centralized, they are vulnerable to hacking, crashing, or computer outage. F . In 2016, more than 650 flights and delaying many more in the US, Japan, Italy, and the UK. With a decentralized blockchain, however, airlines, travelers, and stakeholders can rely on an uninterrupted flow of credible, up-to-date information. or a full five days in 2015, Russia crashed Sweden’s air traffic control system to allegedly test electronic warfare capabilities Delta experienced a computer outage, cancelling Blockchain solutions: For the traveler Airline travelers can find that the blockchain has solutions for them, too, for the following reasons: , offered by frequent flyer programs, save you money on air travel, or they could offer you other rewards. Usually, you have to wait until loyalty points settle in order to use them, and you are limited on where you can spend them. By tokenizing loyalty points on the blockchain, you can get instant value by redeeming them on the spot. Loyalty — Loyalty points — Airlines tag all sorts of fees on top of their already high expenses. Given meager competition, certain companies have a monopoly on the industry and set their own fees. On top of that, airlines charge fees and taxes for the airport, distributors, local, state, and federal governments. Blockchain technology short-circuits some of these fees by bringing other players into the field and eliminating third-party intervention. Cost Since data resides on different silos, passengers tend to get conflicting information on their flights. In 2017, which investigated the potential use of the blockchain for flight information storage and management. It found that since the blockchain presents a single source of truth for flight data, it can save passengers considerable time, stress, and money. The flight data problem — IT firm SITA announced the results of its FlightChain project, In short, blockchain technology can revolutionize the airline industry in four major ways: It provides access to cryptographically fixed updates/information that is distributed to all participants in the network, so everyone knows that the record of transactions (i.e., the details of flight change or cancellation) is true and consistent for all participants. The blockchain provides a mechanism for several people to update a common data set, where that data set is visible to all participants on that ledger (primarily all stakeholders of that particular airline). With centralized systems, you don’t know what to believe aside from what the system could crash or be hacked. The blockchain has the trust aspect since all records are immutably recorded and collaboratively shared, so all participants see them and can contradict them if necessary. A centralized database is controlled only by one authority, which opens it up to mistakes. The ledger, however, works through smart contracts where not only do different organizations share control of the data, but they also implement an approved and shared set of business rules through smart contracts. This gives the data credibility, since it makes errors far less likely to occur. Blockchain Services for Airlines The three blockchain platforms for airlines are , and . Further Network, Fizzy Winding Tree Further Network Further Network is launching a decentralized billing, settlement, and payment (BSP) model for safer and more convenient traveling, as well as other options to meet all travel needs. It achieves these developments through its smart contracts (called Smart Travel Records [STR]) and its digital currency, Aton. Further’s innovations help airline industries improve their services, visibility, and profitability. Airline are barely able to function, let alone innovate, with their 2.5%-5% profit margins. A decentralized BSP model hacks settlement and payment costs, enabling airlines to increase their profits. Further accomplishes this by removing third parties and by accomplishing uninterrupted, real-time P2P communication. Further offers airlines and travelers the following: 1. The decentralized billing, settlement, payment (BSP) process: Further Network helps airlines reduce operational costs (by eliminating third parties), so airlines can focus on customer-centric experiences, consequently increasing their profits. 2. Passenger wallet with biometric ID: Further gives users an Individual Customer Wallet for managing their travel assets and Aton transactions. Also adds the biometric identification to their wallets to help improve the “customer’s journey” by reducing the multiple ID data points into a single point that is under control of the traveler. 3. P2P Travel Product Distribution: Since the International Air Transport Association (IATA) serves as a liaison between airlines and travel agencies, non-IATA airlines lack visibility. Further’s blockchain not only helps such airlines promote themselves, but they also help these companies transmit their inventory over the distributed ledger. 4. The blockchain-based passenger service system: Further’s blockchain gives airlines a secure decentralized data management system. The ticket must do more than just record flight information. It should also be customizable for the travelers’ needs and preferences. Tokenizing these tickets (through STR) help stakeholders and travelers change, sell, add options, and customize their tickets. 5. Open network standards and P2P exchange market: Airlines, hotels, car rentals, cruise and railroad operators, and stakeholders alike could use Further Network’s blockchain to build their own technology, helping them expand and innovate their systems. In short, Further’s blockchain technology helps airlines improve all components of their business including customer service, inventory management, transportation, torage and materials handling, marketing, information processing, demand forecasting, and other activities. Blockchain technology also helps airlines boost their direct channel sales, cross-selling, and dynamic pricing. The shared ledger provides a closed decentralized cloud system for secure data management and cost cutting. With all stakeholders sharing real-time communication through Further’s ledger, airlines can prevent security problems, boost their appeal, and increase their profits. s Fizzy Fizzy, rolled out by French insurance company AXA, is another blockchain platform that promises customers instant and conflict-free refunds on airline delays longer than two hours. Airline passengers subscribe to Fizzy and enter their ticket numbers on Fizzy’s shared ledger. Fizzy’s smart contracts record traveler details and the condition that whenever an airline has at least a two hour delay, payment is automatically triggered and the traveler receives compensation. Fizzy’s smart contracts are connected to global air traffic databases, so passenger compensation is automatic. Customers do not need to file claims and the smart contract minimizes discrepancies between the insurance company and customers. For now, payouts are issued in fiat currencies, although AXA aims to eventually use Ether. Fizzy, too, only covers US transatlantic flights and Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris. By the end of 2018, it plans to cover the rest of the world. Winding Tree Winding Tree uses the Ethereum network as a decentralized travel platform that minimizes transaction costs between suppliers and end users, including hotels. Winding Tree levels the field by allowing travelers unmediated interactions with all distributors, not just those who monopolize the industry, so that travelers can get the lowest costs. Since the blockchain is transparent, participants can also follow what’s going on. The platform uses an ERC20 token, Lif. Other benefits include the following: Suppliers distribute inventory directly to points of sale, skipping costly intermediaries and bottlenecks. Sellers access inventory from all suppliers from a single platform with no markup fees and no barriers to entry. Travelers use Lif to directly pay for travel needs. The result? Air travel and airline operations becomes cheaper, smoother, and more reliable for all parties and the airline industry becomes more democratic. , are three of many airlines that use Winding Tree. Air New Zealand Swiss Air, and Lufthansa Conclusion Blockchain technology for the airline industry is a perfect match. Multiple actors depend on timely, coherent, consistent, and thoroughly accurate data for not only making and implementing plans but also for sharing traveler and operation information, among other aspects. At the moment, airlines have a problem with communication discrepancy resulting in impaired airline reputation, costly litigations, and the loss of time and money for the airline, travellers, and stakeholders. The blockchain technology can help solve this problem with its transparent, distributed ledger that is both permanent and secure. Airlines can use blockchain technology to manage their massive amounts of data on flights, baggage, passengers, and weather. They can use it to track maintenance needs and to improve ticketing services by using smart contracts. Passengers can use the blockchain for managing loyalty points, for coordinating their flights, and for cutting costs, among other things. Both airlines and travelers can use blockchain services like Further Network, Fizzy, or Winding Tree to integrate airline touchpoints, get refunds, and minimize transaction costs. By adopting blockchain technology, airlines can create more efficient service models and provide better customer service and security. About the author: — Founder of Geekforge.io and Howtotoken.com.
