Artificial intelligence (AI) in its various forms –– machine learning, chatbots, robots, agents, etc. –– is increasingly being seen as a core component of enterprise business workflow and information management systems. The current promise and hype around AI are being driven by software vendors, academic research projects, and startups. However, we posit that the greatest promise and potential for AI lies in the enterprise with its applications touching all organizational facets.

With increasing business process and workflow maturity, coupled with recent trends in cloud computing, datafication, IoT, cybersecurity, and advanced analytics, there is an understanding that the challenges of tomorrow cannot be solely addressed by today’s people, processes, and products.

There is still considerable mystery, hype, and fear about AI in today’s world. A considerable amount of current discourse focuses on a dystopian future that could adversely affect humanity. Such opinions, with understandable fear of the unknown, don’t consider the history of human innovation, the current state of business and technology, or the primarily augmentative nature of tomorrow’s AI.

This book demystifies AI for the enterprise. It takes readers from the basics (definitions, state-of-the-art, etc.) to a multi-industry journey, and concludes with expert advice on everything an organization must do to succeed. Along the way, we debunk myths, provide practical pointers, and include best practices with applicable vignettes.

AI brings to enterprise the capabilities that promise new ways by which professionals can address both mundane and interesting challenges more efficiently, effectively, and collaboratively (with humans). The opportunity for tomorrow’s enterprise is to augment existing teams and resources with the power of AI in order to gain competitive advantage, discover new business models, establish or optimize new revenues, and achieve better customer and user satisfaction.

    AI Demystified is amazing book to understand how AI can positively impact their business.
    The stated objective of the author’s is to demystify how to deploy Artificial Intelligence across a business and the deliver a clear and precise overview. Starting with AI basics and moving through industry case studies, Demystifying AI serves to make the complex as simple as possible. This elegant simplicity ensure that a paucity of technical knowledge does not cause the reader to gain zero AI insights from the authors. This book is fantastic and I recommend it for everyone in business today as all businesses will become AI businesses eventually.

    Navigate through the AI hype to business value
    After many years of practicing advanced analytics and AI in the private sector, it is still a daunting task to sort out the hype from valuable business services based on these technologies. This book by Prashant, et al. helps the executive on this journey.The book starts with a chapter that lays the foundation for executive strategy. It goes on to create a framework for understanding applied AI mythologies. The remainder of the book goes on to discuss applications in ever business function from human resources to finance. Included are a number of great case studies across the major business domains that reinforce and illuminate the books content.Must read for executives at all stages of this exciting journey of transformation that we are undergoing.

    As a senior executive with experience across many consumer services industries, I bought Demystifying AI for the Enterprise to get a deeper understanding of how AI and machine learning will impact B2C businesses. The book provides a solid overview of what AI can do as well as what it takes to get the whole organisation involved.The case studies highlighted to me what’s possible as soon as we get beyond internal politics and data security issues to delivering data solutions for customers. There are lots of use cases that could be ported across industries if you stretch your imagination.I’d recommend this book for anyone wanting to get a deeper understanding of how data and AI can be used to create differentiation and operational efficiencies in their business and industry. I can see this book working well for senior leaders in corporate organisations and those who aspire to manage data science teams in these same organisations. This book has given me lots of ideas to take back to my own team and I have ordered a couple of extra copies for our senior leadership team to share.

    I am a senior financial services executive in Australia and have a keen interest in how AI and data science is accelerating digital transformation and driving enterprise value. I’ve read a lot of books on AI and recently completed a Masters Degree in Data Science. So I’m able to evaluate the book for its relevance at the executive level and it’s substance at a data science level. This is an ambitious book and draws on the contributions of a number of highly experienced AI experts. It provides a conceptual framework that flows through these contributions and also provides chapters dedicated to specific industries including Financial Services and Retail, specific functions including supply chain, HR and Customer Experience and deep dives in corporate social responsibility. It provides some projections about the future of AI (always challenging!) and case studies covering banking and healthcare amongst other areas. As a specialist in data science I found it instructive. As an executive I found it accessible. I strongly recommend this book.

    This is one of those rare business and management books that actually exceeds what it sets out to do. Few topics are as discussed or debated as AI. Moreover, much of this discourse can make AI seem a somewhat distant or complex (or, dare I say it, mystifying) topic that only specialist staff, firms or organisations need worry about – especially in the short term.This book clearly outlines why any enterprise that doesn’t start looking at how they can apply AI to the way they go about things today will get left behind. More compellingly, it also methodically outlines practical, tangible steps that any leader or manager (and not just an organisation’s designated ‘AI expert’) could apply to drive and take advantage of the opportunities AI presents. I have already recommended this book to others, and would be entirely unsurprised if it becomes a B-School staple in years to come.
