Foreword

The world is in the era of digital transformation, which is affecting society and businesses alike. One of the major enablers of recent times is artificial intelligence (AI). This book is for business managers/owners and workforces who are looking to understand how the use of AI transforms the business sector. Most people have at least one encounter with AI every day. There are many ways in which AI can be applied to the management of businesses, including the enhancement of control operations, the reduction of complexity in decision-making, the eradication of human error, the simplification of work procedures, and the consolidation of business data. As AI improves and becomes more widespread in our daily lives, the stigma that it is only seen in scientific fiction dystopias is beginning to fade. Hence, the author’s goal for writing this book is to provide business leaders the knowledge on how to apply artificial intelligence in managing their businesses. Artificial intelligence is often considered a supporting tool rather than an alternative to human intellect and innovation. By the end of the book, readers will have a firm grasp of AI progress and the part it plays in boosting operations across industries. Managers can then devise a plan to help workers acquire new skills and adjust to the changing nature of their jobs as a result of AI evaluations. Therefore, it is crucial to evaluate this technology with an eye toward its potential advantages, practical uses, and room for future development.
