Now Dan Gilmore is quoting noted Gartner Analyst Amber Salley:

“But Gartner says it is seeing a number of companies combining more traditional planning software with an AI/analytics platform supporting the short-term time horizon.

So what does it mean? Among other recommendations, Salley suggests that companies identify areas of greatest variability in the short-term time horizon. Next, they should determine which type of advanced analytic or AI techniques can be applied to better absorb the variability in planning, sometimes in combination.”
