Why applied artificial intelligence needs a major mind-shift – TechTalks

Welcome to AI book reviews, a series of posts that explore the latest literature on artificial intelligence. Despite its promising advances, artificial intelligence has yet to cause a transformational change in many industries. And in many cases, the problem is not necessarily with the technology but with the way we perceive it. Power and Prediction, a new book by Ajay Agrawal, Joshua Gans, and Avi Goldfarb, explores the fundamental challenges standing in the way of AI adoption in different industries. A sequel to their acclaimed Prediction Machines, the new book discusses what needs to change before organizations can benefit from the full potential of advances in artificial intelligence.
