Show Notes
Kavita Ganesan has assisted many clients to gain the advantage of split-second humanlike thinking, from a computer. Her secrets even assist when it is hard to get from concept to starting the project due to inadequate data.
She cautious that in many situations AI is wasted, it does not work, and people believe they need AI but in fact do not. However, the examples of the potential value to be derived where AI is appropriately deployed are fascinating, and should spark initiative to identify places to apply AI in every business.
Human-level thinking required? Not a problem. Whether applied broadly or in specifically targeted situations, large companies and small all potentially benefit from deploying AI. Don’t however look for immediate, directly consequential, or automatic positive impact on the bottom-line. Some will see it fast but for many it will evolve over time in financial results, staff or customer satisfaction, quality enhancements, etc.
Use an off-the-shelf tool or build from scratch. The secret to avoid failure lies in adequate preparation … data, validation, resources. Replace part, or the entire, process or system currently deployed, but learn first from The Business Case for AI, A leader’s Guide to AI Strategies, Best Practices & Real-World Applications.
