Artificial intelligence is everywhere in global business today, especially in the supply chain. By some claims, it’s the key to helping companies adjust to radical changes in online selling and customer demand. But what exactly is this thing called “AI”? Is it the fulfillment of a dream by scientists to digitally mirror the workings of the brain? Is it merely a processor of massive amounts of data that no human could possibly make sense of? Or is the definition of what constitutes AI a pointless exercise? On this episode, we make sense of AI with the help of Seth Earley, chief executive officer of Earley Information Science and author of The AI-Powered Enterprise: Harness the Power of Ontologies to Make Your Business Smarter, Faster and More Profitable. We’ll also discuss whether AI threatens to take over the role of humans as business decision makers. Hosted by Bob Bowman, Editor-in-Chief of SupplyChainBrain.
