To get the best out of Generative AI, you need a good database. Identify which data is important for your business processes and ensure that this data is of high quality, accessible and secure. The quality of your AI processes depends heavily on the data they are fed with. The Microsoft Azure Cloud is ideal for this.  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.online.ch\/en\/microsoft\/\">https:\/\/www.online.ch\/microsoft-partner\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. promote AI awareness and further training<\/h3>\n\n<p>The introduction of AI is not only a technological change, but also a cultural one. Make sure your employees are ready for AI. Promote awareness of AI and invest in training programs. Your employees will learn how they can use AI in their everyday lives. A well-informed team is the key to driving innovation.

A clear guideline gives everyone in the company guidance on how to integrate AI effectively and responsibly into their work. This not only promotes acceptance of the technology, but also ensures uniform standards in dealing with AI.  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/guidelines-application-artificial-intelligence-ai-online-balz-zuerrer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/guidelines-application-artificial-intelligence-ai-online-balz-zuerrer\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learn from industry leaders<\/h2>\n\n<p>In the dynamic field of Generative AI, it is important to learn from industry leaders and global companies. These organizations often serve as a benchmark for best practices and innovative use cases. The democratization of AI technology, especially through cloud services, also enables small and medium-sized companies to use AI tools such as Copilot and ChatGPT. This gives them a competitive advantage. In contrast to large corporations, smaller companies can adapt their processes quickly and are often more flexible, like a speedboat compared to the big tankers.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.online.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/generative-post-finance-assistent-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11745\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.online.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/generative-post-finance-assistent-768x1023.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.online.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/generative-post-finance-assistent-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.online.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/generative-post-finance-assistent.jpg 911w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">PostFinance Assistant &#8211; Generative AI chatbot for advising employees<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>Generative AI has enormous potential to drive both operational excellence and process improvements.
