These days Artificial Intelligence and its application in Business comes up in every conversation. What is it, how does it work and how best can it help us pretty much sums up the discussions. Most people are not 'au fait' with what it is or in particular its many applications to their Business but its an 'Emperors new clothes' scenario as they don't wish to appear to be falling behind.
Some have already taken a 'stance' and that falls into 2 categories. The first, we absolutely must embrace it and cannot be left behind. The second more cautious, more wait and see or are they just more practical. I think they fall into the 'show me the money' category and based on all conversations to date they are currently in the majority, but for how long?
The exponents of AI are excitedly jumping up and down, we can do this and this and this and this and also this by 9am tomorrow. We are in the ascendancy you must listen to us or the Business is doomed to slow processes, costly operations and less customer service than our rivals and hence ultimately doomed!
The rate of AI capability progression outstrips anything that has impacted Business operations in our lifetime. Should therefore the AI Leaders become the de facto Business Leaders of every Organisation. In 3 years time will every CEO have an AI badge of honour or will the less technically minded still be running the show?
This is the Leadership Battle of our times. Who will win?
Best Regards,
Michael.
