Artificial Intelligence in Business: Replacing Subjectivity and the ensuing trade-offs

Victor Allis in his article, 'One small step for computers, one giant step for AI', posed the question that becomes the subject of my enquiry. But I am also indebted to Roger Penrose and his seminal book, "The Emperor's new mind", which had influenced me in my life in more than one way. First of all on 21st April, we heard from Sundar Pichai, the Google CEO in his earnings call, the progress made by AlphaGo, "DeepMind's AlphaGo has been making great strides. It was a privilege to play legendary Go player, Lee Sedol, in such an important milestone for artificial intelligence", something that Victor's article was dedicated to. Indeed Penrose mentioned about the Oriental game Go in his book way back in 1989, while discussing about the strides made in the game of chess by computers.
