It feels like everything is getting a “smart” upgrade these days. From the cars we drive to how we operate our domestic appliances, almost every gadget has had a smart upgrade or now uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve our lives – or so they claim…
Uncertain times are often a catalyst for important innovations. During the Great Depression, for example, inventors created nylon, magnetic tape recording, and the first working helicopter—all of which are still in use today. To be prepared for the future, you need to take stock of where you’ve been, what you’ve accomplished, and where you want to go. Let’s look at four tech trends that are resonating with ServiceNow customers.
