Assessment 4 – Investigating a Digital Disruption Overview Word Limit Percentage Due Date Submission 2000 words (plus or minus 200 words) 40% Monday 1pm, Week 7 TurnItIn via Blackboard Learning Outcomes LO3 – propose and predict, by applying theory, the impacts that emerging technologies will have on different industries, and understand and define how best to respond to the challenges and opportunities that disruption offers. LO5 - discuss trends, developments and critical issues of emerging technologies Task In week 5, we learned a number of digital disruption caused by the emerging technology specifically artificial intelligence technology, such as Siri in Apple, Data Mining in business application, natural language processing in customer service chatbot and even smart car proposed by Tesla. It is time now for you to do digital disruption analysis in this fast-growing technology. Similarly to assessment 3, you are required to undertake a literature review about the business specifically who has applied artificial technology, and further analyse and evaluate the digital disruption it has initiated In order to improve your analysis skill in evaluating the impacts of the disrupting technology, you are encouraged to choose an emerging technology recently, not more than 6 years as we know that technology is growing exponentially. You may use technology explained in week 5 if you want. Please be advised that your focus is on the technology embedded in product/service. For example, you need to investigate ‘data mining’ technology applied in Target rather than ‘Target’ company itself (this case study can be found in Topic 5).

Business Background
    The involvement in the business of the organization is engaged in the commercial or professional activities in which production of goods within the company or retailing of the products in the market are initiated and operated to fulfill its goals and objectives. In order to achieve success in the competitive marketplace or create challenges to the other companies, app

In the achievement of the growth and success, technologies have the important roles to assist the companies to run businesses in the market and improve their profits rather than the competitive challenges.
    In this scenario, the use of technology in the online retail business is considered as the most successful initiation that serves as regulating businesses continuously and profitably.

The use of a virtual assistant has become voice-activated helpers in case of searching different types of information and complete everyday tasks in all manner with more intuitive ways.

At the same time, organizing schedules, playing music, and sending a hands-free text is few functions of its services that provided effectively. The target market of the Alexa is the other business organization, common people or its potential customers that allow them to use voice-controlled virtual assistant successfully (Corea, 2017). The business organizations can use this technology in the workplace to complete everyday tasks and the common people can use it in their home to play the musing, switch on the lights, fan and other devices.
    The competitive advantage can be taken due to Alexa is Echo, Dot & Tap that can be used in the voice-only devices.
