“We did a project in the UK with the police force. They did ten investigations over nine weeks. The volume of data they carved through… they said they estimated the time efficiency gain was 236 years...236 years for one police force. You have to factor in the cost of labor for humans doing these things and you can take that out of the system. So, those time efficiencies, if I think about it in the context of ports, the time you spend looking at paperwork or processing paperwork, answering phones, working on logistics, and freeing up that time, and extrapolate that across this audience, it really is a significant time efficiency gain.” - Kirk Arthur, Worldwide Government Solutions Lead at Microsoft, on the benefits of AI and other technology solutions to create more efficient systems #SmartPorts #AAPAEvents #AI
