Philosophy for AI Business

Artificial intelligence (AI) empowers significant and rapid change for businesses across almost all sectors and industries. From the automation of different aspects of the business to forecasting patterns in data, AI can accomplish tasks with far greater accuracy and speed than human beings – transforming what companies and managers can do and how they do it. In particular, machine learning – a computer’s capacity to improve its performance without human intervention – drives the development of new applications that can accelerate productivity and competitive edge for companies.

Any debate surrounding AI adoption in business and taking advantage of it requires a re-assessment of leadership. Without a transformation here, AI will never fully deliver. The problems and dilemmas of business cannot be solved by algorithms alone. AI Leaders need to have a deep understanding of how AI is deployed in business so that you can see what AI can (and cannot) do for you and your organization. This transformative mindset is what I refer to as Digital Mindset that can unfold exponential growth in your business.
