With the joint research project “What can AI do for me?”, – the Institute for Applied Artificial Intelligence at Stuttgart Media University, thingsTHINKING GmbH and KENBUN IT AG – not only wanted to deepen research in the field of digital value creation, but also to bring innovative solutions in the AI landscape more strongly into application at companies.
Therefore, an AI-based matching platform was developed in the joint research project. This allowes companies to describe their still unspecific AI projects in text form, whereupon suitable AI application possibilities and AI solution companies are found through semantic matching. In addition, an expert assessment of the value creation potential of a comparable project is displayed.
In this way, companies can recognize potential applications for AI and identify suitable partner companies for implementation. While removing the hurdle for companies – especially from the SME sector – to start implementing AI, the platform represents a free opportunity for solution providers to acquire potential new customers.
