[ CITATION Dav11 \l 1033 ] Explain the shortcomings of robots and machine learning as
observed by IBM’s supercomputer known as Deep Blue. Deep Blue defeated chess grandmaster
Gary Kasparov and hence it was perceived that Deep Blue has superior thinking skills. [ CITATION
Dav11 \l 1033 ]Explains that “Deep Blue had won with brute number-crunching force (its ability
to evaluate millions of possible moves per second), not by applying the kind of human
intelligence that helps us to live our lives. A computer may be able to beat a human in a game of
chess by sheer force of its computational abilities, but if you ask it whether it wants to play pool,
it won’t be able to tell whether you are talking about swimming, financial portfolios, or
billiards.”
Process: Machine learning is the ability for computers to learn and act without being explicitly
programmed. However, in the use case learning is not contextualized and hence Deep Blue
would not be able to apply “knowledge” in a different context. The use of machines is therefore
limited in terms of sharing or digital transformation of knowledge between projects with
different variables. The robot or machine would need to be provided with a certain set of
variables within which it would be able to apply to learn.

Knowledge Management as Digital Transformation
The ongoing digital age needs the in-depth use of digital media and consequently changes
within the business concerning business relations, client processes, value chain, etc. This method
is stated in Digital Transformation. Several firms already use technologies like social
media/networks, mobile communication, or business analytics. This can be a chance for raising
client activities, optimizing business processes, and adapting business models. Focus points for
the belief of Business Transformation is to build a digital strategy, the effective integration into
business processes, skilled data management, the adaption of the structure culture, and efficient
integration into the data and communication technology (ICT) of the company. Some
organizations started early with the digitalization and created the best practices which might be
transferred to alternative corporations. Digitalization and its integration within the processes
could be a capable probability for developing ways for data management, digital/organizational
learning. Particularly within the starting part of the digital transformation basic ideas are often
developed and advanced. As a result, the training cultures of digital learning among the
organization are often familiarized.
