Nominations for Awards 2024- CMCE
RSS feeds WordPress
July 25, 2024
I am flattered by the nomination for the CNCE Awards 2024 considering the initial skepticism towards artificial intelligence that existed. Articles chosen underline required changes for consultants. “Embrace AI in Strategic Management” outlines the use of analytics to make decisions as well as develop. “The Death of Management Consulting” on the other hand posits that business models need to be redefined with power given back to customers while at the same time coming up with new competitive strategies. These insights show why consultants need to offer something different from any other profession and show customers how they can always be ahead of their time through reinvention using emerging technologies.

This analysis shows a rapid and steady market growth prediction for synthetic data.Synthetic data is made up information created by computers to look like real data. It's used when real data is hard to get or could invade people's privacy. This data helps train artificial intelligence safely without risking sensitive information. Studies predict more AI data will be synthetic in the future. Synthetic data is cheaper and faster to produce than collecting real data, and it avoids privacy risks. However, it might not always accurately reflect real-life situations. There's also a need to update laws and privacy rules to handle synthetic data properly

Business acumen, the bedrock of strategic decision-making—understanding and responding to complex business problems. This includes knowledge of critical financial indicators, market trends, operational workflows, and long-range strategic initiatives. These skills enable individuals to connect their work with the larger organizational goals, thereby adding value at all levels.

The research could help lessen bias, fight false information, and break up echo chambers by showing a variety of views.
As important elections are coming, if these ideas were to be applied, they could change the way social media affects democracy and guide it to be embedded in new laws in places like the UK, US, and EU.

December 14, 2024
Subservience, the film, serves up an even more visceral interpretation of A.I.’s encroachment on human reality, probing the questions of autonomy, gender bias and ethical dilemmas that accompany it. It reflects real-world worries about the misuse of AI, biases in machine learning, and accountability. As robotics change the face of industries, responsible AI — stemming from inclusiveness, education, and equitable development — is crucial. Let us leverage AI’s possibilities for equality and innovation while remaining cognizant of the risks.

Why AI Governance Needs to Embrace Both Quantitative and Qualitative Benefits
(TWFR)

November 01, 2024
With artificial intelligence being at the core of business productivity and customer satisfaction, governance frameworks need to change.
Rather than only concentrating on avoiding risks, AI governance should put the same emphasis on quantifiable (or measured) as well as experiential benefits (or that we feel). This two-fold strategy enhances AI’s worthiness by taking care of probable hazards.
AI Adoption: obstacles and blind spots-A human-centred article
RSS feeds WordPress
October 20, 2024
Despite the fact that many businesses are adopting AI in their operations, they often have difficulties scaling towards commercialisation due to governance issues, inefficient training, and ethical dilemmas. It, therefore, becomes important for leaders to close this gap by promoting responsible innovation and ensuring that ethical examples are set in artificial intelligence use.
If we must succeed sustainably, then excluding elements such as the role played by middle-level managers in sector-wide training programs and policies governing the use of AI will be difficult.
I want to explore these stumbling blocks while enlightening how people employed could incorporate artificial intelligence that promotes lasting operational efficiency and growth prospects with a strict human-centric focus.
AI, Control, and the Future of Work: Tesla’s Approach Raises Ethical Dilemmas in a New Era of Productivity
RSS feeds WordPress
September 29, 2024
The criticism piled on Tesla's Berlin Gigafactory for sending supervisors to monitor employees taking extended sick leaves based on claims of high absenteeism rates and lowered productivity. Critics counter, like unions, that this creates a "culture of fear" with the result of ignoring workplace conditions, leading to the emergence of stress and illness. In this respect, with the development of AI-driven applications, the question of a balance between productivity and personal and social welfare is one of the important issues to be faced by the future of work.( TFWR- In press)
The Future of Resilience: How Generative AI is Revolutionizing Business Continuity
RSS feeds WordPress
September 26, 2024
Generative AI makes companies agile and resilient; instead of reacting to only those problems that have already struck, AI has the ability to predict areas that could give them issues. Therefore, this would be how organisations could solve the challenges even before they had started. This agility makes them fast-changing entities for adapting to situations of risk management, with fine-tuning their strategies along the way to make them competitive. AI also allows scenario planning, enabling organisations to strategize various options and make intelligent decisions for each in advance. Consequently, AI reduces downtime, smoothest out operations, and prioritises what could have been setbacks as opportunities for growth and resilience.

Beyond Algorithms- Integrating AI Literacy and Technical Solutions to Combat and Win Bias-on Press TWFR

September 10, 2024
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing industries today in the high-tech world. However, it is also a double edged sword that opens new opportunities while carrying dangers like bias. Do you know why AI decisions seem unfair sometimes? From recruitment to healthcare; social and technical prejudices may be magnified by AI systems which leads to serious repercussions. In this piece of mine I would like us to study deeply into these biases so that we can come up with a holistic approach by fusing AI literacy with technical solutions. It’s about time we started building such kind of systems-it should be accessible for everybody irrespective of race or gender without discrimination.

Instructional design is creating educational experiences that help people learn well through practice. Three main learning theories—behaviourism, cognitivism, and constructivism—guide this field. However, due to technological advancements, these theories are beginning to be integrated into modern learning environments, particularly through the increased availability of digital tools, including Generative AI(Gen-AI).
The AI Frontier: Navigating Growth, Bubbles, and Global Strategies (TWLR in press)
RSS feeds WordPress
August 16, 2024
In the research, the possibility of a bubble in AI is discussed, with reference to the three different contexts, namely: in US, UK and Europe.
According to it, the US seems to be more susceptible to such a case because of the high level of speculative investment, monopolization in the market as well as less stringent regulations. Conversely, the UK and Europe have chosen to be more prudent while adopting AI for practical purposes in sectors such as healthcare, finance and manufacturing.
This confirms that both these regions are safer when it comes to AI bubbles than America since they:
- Showcase varied AI markets
- Concentrate efforts on B2B artificial intelligence products
- Are more cautious due to stronger monitoring framework
It is these features that make progress of European and British industries based on AI more viable and less speculative than what has been happening in America at any given time.

Inclusive Innovation: Strategies to Mitigate Gender Bias in AI (WFR-in Press)
RSS feeds WordPress
July 24, 2024
There are significant challenges that arise from gender bias in this rapidly transforming industry, artificial intelligence . This is due to the fact that only 26% of women hold jobs in this field which results to occurrence of biases through the systems Intersectionality in most cases worsens these for women of color yet they remain invisible without doing so intentionally .
The respective solutions include having framework powered audit on prejudice as well as embracing IBM’s inclusive measures concerning programming language on Artificial Intelligence (AI);Goggle’s ethics regarding Fair AI works; Salesforce’s HR approach focusing on diversity; and finally but not least – continuous track by Microsoft on this matter. Consequently, the gender sensitivity within the development stages has appeared as one of the areas where such developments would be used as tools in promotion[2].Gender biased algorithms used by artificial intelligence lead to injustice against individual people and lose making possibilities due to the absence of viable options from competition as well as stagnant business productivity due to lack of trust among other companies.
Inventing impartial AI technologies is extremely important if justice and functionality are considered significant in their performance.
AI in Business: Crafting Sustainable Strategies Amidst Hype and Market Dynamics( WFR)
RSS feeds WordPress
June 30, 2024
AI in business is experiencing the highs and lows of a roller coaster, much like the dot-com and electric vehicle bubbles. Companies must be clear about strategies so as not to repeat past mistakes.
Indeed, it's a valid argument to urge caution by large firms in their AI investments and to start with small tests. On the contrary, SMEs need to focus on short-term applications for AI and work with experienced vendors. Both have to ensure ethical practices and transparency. First, AI will support noncritical areas and then move into critical ones. Balancing investments and maintaining ethical standards are the key features to ensure sustainability in the adoption of AI.

This is what I expressed in this paper/article published by The European Business Review.
I have highlighted the same enthusiasm for AI toward electric cars, and I wanted to share lessons related to the adoption.
The #itinfrastructure has ( should?) to be very efficient and placed right up front, where it is clear that digital design and ethics are considered.
Artificial intelligence should be better developed in such a way that it is #sustainable, and thus, the transformation will occur
Finally, this reflection, together with the hype insights during the time of the dot-com boom and now with AI, create a #wakeup call for humanity on the aversion of mistakes which still today reveal their effects and further #disruption for the businesses operating in those sectors and their customers/clients.
