Artificial Intelligence Is Going To Disrupt Project Management

On an average, more than 50 percent of projects fail. Without touching on failure factors this staggering number applies across all sorts of project environments – IT, construction, engineering, or transformation projects. One would assume we'd figured out by now how to successfully deliver projects on time, on a budget, and to the desired scope and benefits; But apparently, we haven't. AI is one of the buzzwords du jour, thanks to frequent tech media news about voice-enabled personal assistants and self-driving cars. However, the concept of AI is older than project management itself -- going as far back as 380 BC to Greek philosophers such as Aristotles who described the syllogism, a method of mechanical thought.
