Market Challenged by Value vs. Cost Considerations

Investment in cognitive technologies is complex and human input is still critical for the effort to develop, train and oversee cognitive systems. While the implementation of cognitive technologies is rife with potential, it is not ideal, in particular when it comes to generating company value over reducing costs. While the technology will likely improve work efficiency, it will not lead to huge reductions in workforce.
