What’s New In Gartner’s Hype Cycle For AI, 2019

By Louis Columbus on October 7, 2019

Between 2018 and 2019, organizations that have deployed artificial intelligence (AI) grew from 4% to 14%, according to Gartner’s 2019 CIO Agenda survey.

Stop Talking About Digital Transformation

Stop Talking About Digital Transformation

By Esteban Kolsky on February 3, 2015

What? I mean, what???? Seriously?  Just last year two of my seven posts (yeah, didn’t do that well writing in my blog last year – but been working to remedy that by posting links to my other writings around the world – but I digress) were about digital transformation.

Blueprint to Re-Cycle the much Hyped MagiK Kvadrant

Blueprint to Re-Cycle the much Hyped MagiK Kvadrant

By Zoli Erdos on March 25, 2013

Fellow Enterprise Irregular and HfS Research Founder Phil Fersht introduced their new Blueprint with an appropriate title: Step aside Magic Quadrant, hello Blueprint. I think such a milestone warrants a historical overview of Gartner’s Magic Quadrant, Hype Cycle, Magic Cycle, Magic Hype, Hyped Magik… or any other variation you prefer.  And since it’s just a few […]

The Social Revolution Has Just Begun

The Social Revolution Has Just Begun

By John Taschek on January 4, 2012

Depending on whom you ask, 2011 was either the year of the iPad or the year of social. The truth is that they were and are equally weighted because they are catalysts for each other, and while each can exist without the other, imagining such a thing is like trying to imagine a world where […]

Variations on Hype Quadrants.. no Magic Hype… no, Hype Cycle.. or is it Magic Quadrant?

By Zoli Erdos on April 1, 2011

Unhyping Gartner’s Hype Cycle, Part 2.

By Zoli Erdos on July 22, 2010

Here’s Part 1.  The reason I’m doing it again is that Michael Krigsman just published the Wailgum Hype Cycle: Not bad.  Still a bit complex.  Me thinks the simplified,  geekified, scobleized, oprahized, too-oh-ized version of the Gartner Hype Cycle still works: And if it doesn’t – well, it’s almost Friday.
