[RU]

Boris Kontsevoi is the CEO and President at Intetics, a leading American technology company that provides innovative AI/ML solutions to businesses worldwide.

The Internet of Things (IoT) continues to influence the trends in the modern world, affecting your quality of life and streamlining the operations of companies through automation, seamless connectivity, and real-time access to data. It refers to a network of objects (or things) embedded with sensors, processors, and other technologies that likewise are connected with other devices and systems over the internet. Its solutions have transformed the face of society, evidenced by smart appliances, vehicles, and machines that can perform tasks without human intervention.

The ethical link between U.S. and European AI systems is worrisome. AI continues to advance, and it will be important to address emerging ethical issues. It should take into account ethical differences in different cultures and try to harmonize these systems. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) is advancing rapidly and with it comes some points, one of them is moral dilemma. The integration of AI systems developed outside of Europe and America presents unique challenges. The potential for conflict between AI systems in the United States, Europe, and other countries is high due to the conflicting cultural, legal, and ethical policies that govern their development.

AI is penetrating further into the business environment every year, forming a solid foundation for increased adoption. McKinsey finds that companies that are making greater investments in AI are seeing greater financial returns. As a result, more businesses are scaling up their investments to speed AI development. Higher ROI and improved competitiveness, together with greater digital maturity, have boosted AI adoption. For example, according to IBM findings, 53% of IT professionals have accelerated their rollout of AI over the past two years, which is 10% more than in 2021, when the trend was fueled by the COVID-19 pandemic.

AI appears to be a dream these days, where a wide range of businesses, organizations, and individuals across various industries can use it for their needs anywhere and anytime. Conversational AI and virtual assistants are designed to simplify our daily lives by taking care of tasks that we may find tedious, time-consuming or complicated. They are serving us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year without a loss of productivity and quality by understanding and responding to our requests using Natural Language Processing (NLP) and using Machine Learning (ML) algorithms.

The pace of change in today's digital world is dizzying. In the fight for clients, enterprise companies are often blindsided by trends. Because of this, some of them are slow to adapt and suffer the consequences of getting caught in the wrong IT game. To avoid this, let's figure out where we are, where we're going and what we should know to be successful in 2023. This year will bring us further into a smart world transformed by artificial intelligence (AI). Technologies such as customer experience (CX) solutions, AI and the IoT will pave the way for more business opportunities than in the past years. What should we expect?

Leading technology company Intetics Inc. is speeding up the asset management process for rail organisations. With the exponential increase in the amount of data collected by advanced monitoring devices such as wireless sensor networks, Light Detection and Ranging (LiDARs), and high-resolution video cameras, some organizations in the railway industry are struggling because they are still using manual resources for data processing. That data is usually gathered during the regular inspection and assessment of the state of individual objects and their components.

Intetics CEO and President Boris Kontsevoi and Digital Marketing Director Irina Dubovik have explored alternative opinions on the topic of niche specialization in IT outsourcing and commented on them. Boris Kontsevoi: "It's somewhat unexpected that the topic of niche specialization turned out to be so vibrant. Thank you all for your comments and opinions! It seems highly likely that we are all addressing the same question: how to sell. First and foremost, the majority either arrived at the same conclusions as us or are on the way to them. [RU]

Is there really "niche specialization" in the IT industry, or is it just a marketing trick? Boris Kontsevoi, Intetics President, and Irina Dubovik, Digital Marketing Director, lean towards the latter. The article where they argued their point of view sparked considerable interest. Some readers supported the authors' point of view, while others expressed their disagreement. Kraftblick.Media shares the most interesting comments with you in this compilation. [RU]

Anyone who googles a question is using distributed computing. Distributed software development — like what supports search engines — can successfully integrate work and private lives alike and has potential in the near future. Presently, a growing number of startups have taken advantage of these developments, launching new ventures with limited resources or operating in niche markets. The availability of the right development resources is a critical component to the success of any product, especially when development teams are distributed.

Many argue that IT companies must stand out among competitors to find clients, often through narrow niche expertise. Speakers at industry conferences, opinion leaders in blogs, and coaches in their courses all preach this. We decided to find out what expertise from Eastern Europe is in demand in European and American markets. Spoiler: none. Intetics CEO and President Boris Kontsevoi and Irina Dubovik, Digital Marketing Director, have their own opinion. [RU]

The journey from a business leader to a chief executive officer isn’t just connected with personal goals and ambitions. It also always aligns with a global mission to bring meaningful value to business society and engage talented people in strategically planned business with a vivid and clear mission, vision, and a road map. But in the beginning, usually, one has only enthusiasm, a spirit of an innovator and experimenter, and the desire to face challenges. To achieve the results, one had to be dedicated, persistent, and industrious; akin to these qualities is Boris Kontsevoi.

I'm just going to come out and say it - the co-located development model is a waste of resources and offers negligible benefits. Is this statement controversial? Sure, but it's getting less so by the day. More and more organizations recognize that remote and outsourced development can cut costs, is highly scalable, and offers access to a wider talent pool. And talent is the key, what really matters in modern software development. With COVID, distributed development makes even more sense, as 2020's economic disruption rocked the globe, and we still haven't fully recovered. Working hours and employment losses were four times higher than the crash of '09.

According to forecasts, the total number of connected wearable devices worldwide is expected to exceed 1 billion units by 2022. Logically, players in the medical technology market are actively exploring opportunities to expand their usage. When we talk about wearables, we mean watches, bracelets, shoes, glasses, clothing, or even jewelry with digital control. There are so many implementations that listing them all in one article doesn't make sense. If a couple of decades ago it was impossible to imagine, for example, that electronic watches could track a person's movements and body position or monitor heart rate and blood pressure, today these are indisputable advantages of wearable smart electronics.

By Sergey Kizyan, Intetics “The only thing that stays the same is change.” When the Greek philosopher Heraclitus made that famous statement centuries ago, he couldn’t have possibly imagined the changed world we are living in today. This has happened as a result of technological advancements, and no one industry has seen such transformational and constant changes as healthcare.

Sergey Kizyan, CTO at Intetics Many companies outsource software development. They expect high results and reliable performance from their partners, but at the same time, they are constantly uncertain about the timing, quality, and cost of software development. To alleviate this tension, outsourcing companies must offer a new approach to service delivery. At Intetics, we have created and implemented a framework called Predictive Software Engineering (PSE), which eliminates the "pain points" in the work of outsourcers. [RU]
