How business owners will adapt to AI
This post was originally written by Marc Emmer for Vistage Research Center.
Business owners are actively seeking AI solutions that will transform their organizations forever, are easy to implement and free. Our expectations may be a wee bit unrealistic.
Over the last several months, artificial intelligence (AI) has transitioned from a theoretical threat to humans to an endless array of real-world applications that businesses can implement right away. Yet, we also need to be practical. It’s dangerous when we set unrealistic expectations for technology because users will revolt, which slows adoption. It’s an opportune time to reevaluate the current state of play in AI.
We know our choice is to implement AI or compete with it. However, given our lack of understanding about it, we all need to start with a real-world evaluation of our risk tolerance. Management teams should attack this complex problem by evaluating it in stages, considering the long-, medium- and short-term impacts, and then consider the investments they are willing to make.
