Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already here, it is radically transforming business and pioneering companies are already leveraging AI resources to create profitable business growth. At the same time there is a lot of hype and fear surrounding the subject. AI, once thought of only in the context of robots on production lines, is poised to infiltrate all industries, markets and professions. While much discussion has focused on job displacement and the fear that computers will one day inherit the earth, less has been said about how businesses at the frontier have begun to take advantage of machine learning to grow and transform their strategies, and about how humans and intelligent machines can collaborate to form new kinds of jobs and business growth. 'Making Artificial Intelligence Work for You', a new program from the Rotman School of Management, seeks to demystify AI in a business context and to provide an up-to-the-minute understanding of its potential benefits and risks.
