3 Academic Awards
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.

Synthetic Data report: Fueling AI Progress While Navigating Privacy and Regulatory Landscapes

April 15, 2024
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

Today's EARLY morning, i was enjoying a double expresso outside of my parent's house in Italy. 06:00 am local time..... when I had the opportunity to take the pictures
After the caffeine went in circle, I had a sort of "inspiration" about connecting that fantastic sunrise with AI...
“AI at work is like light moving through the day. Those who adjust can see more, while those who resist stay in the Dark”
???????????????????????? ????????????????????????????: The world is dark. AI feels far away—something that may matter later but not now. Some notice it, but many ignore it.
???????????? ????????????????????????: Light starts to spread. Early users of AI see how it helps them work faster and smarter. They learn step by step.
???????????????? ????????????: Everything is bright. Those who embraced AI early now use it naturally and find new opportunities. Others are just starting to see what they missed....
Maybe I need to enjoy in a better way my Italian short break, but in the end...

Making effective use of AI relies on strategic control and professional assistance. The consultants steer AI initiatives towards the direction of organizational objectives, such as keeping data accuracy and privacy while putting in place measures against partiality.

All these measures enable companies to handle the inevitable intricacies of AI, promote inventiveness among employees, and support customers constantly in the context of trustworthiness and observance of the statutes.

A Stanford study has proposed a different way of making the playing field more level by using something called a "???????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????."
This is a way to take some of the heated political feelings out of the mix while keeping democracy robust and not making users lose their interest.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

"The Brand Called You" - Interview About AI In Business
RSS feeds WordPress
March 08, 2024
Our talk was about the new tech and how companies could use it. Their leaders need to learn everything they can at a high level to know which AI to bring into the business and how it would even help create value. They need to be straight with the staff on what this AI is good for and what it isn't good at, and let people say what they think early so they feel part of it. AI might take over basic work in the future so people can focus on complex and strategic tasks and plan for different scenarios by crunching numbers. AI also needs to fit the values companies and people have - it should assist them, not substitute them.

The research aims are based on the fact new innovative technology can request to totally or partially "unlearn" previous knowledge to make space for the new one by exploiting and using AI.

How is the concept of unlearning considered?
Ability to distinguish and accept old knowledge and explore new knowledge
Unlearning: Mental models- Outdated assumptions; Perspectives not balanced with the past

5 Quotes
New Quote for my New Columnist's role with The Financial Business Review
RSS feeds WordPress
September 05, 2024
This quote can represent the transition from the GARTNER HYPE CURVE when we have left "the hype" level and are now in the Trough of Disillusionment.

Briefly, this phase normally manifests from users, in this case Companies, Users of the first phase of Hype ( excitement interest, investments, speculations) when the exaggerated expectations are disappointed by

low quality

low reliability

of solutions, both from AI core producers, start-ups with their tools and solutions core-products based.

In addition, there are still so many open issues which are not fixed by regulations or laws ( ethics, Privacy, deep-fakes, and this is not an exhaustive list, but I hope it can give an idea.).

For some generations, which have lived the period of the dot.com hype and consequent Bust Bubble

Baby Boomers - born around 1946-1964- during the bursting of the dot com bubble, a large number of them were already at their top positions as managers or in other senior level positions of the IT industry or finance or any other sector affected by the bubble’s effect.

2. Generation X—born between 1965 and 1980—During the dot-com bubble, they were mostly in their 20s until they were 35 years old. Many of them were either launching careers or working at this point and consequently had practical knowledge concerning the rise and fall of tech companies.

3. Older Millennials- born between 1981 and 1986- Some older millennials might have been teenagers or young adults during the dot-com crash, mainly if they were interested in technology since the trends used to exist at that time or had relatives directly affected by the stock market crash.

These generations ( I belong to baby boomers btw) are living this period not with caution but with fear and anxiety, something that doesn't help to examine investigate analyse and evaluate both opportunities, risks but mainly to postpone any of informed decision about the AI adoption to bring benefits to their Companies and employees.

My active role is to bring more elements with publishing in Academic - Busine/academic journals to support with factual evidence what AI can or can't do.

“Things happen when you are ready and your stakeholders are ready too”

The concept of Preparedness- both personal and group readiness with time taken into consideration combined with potential outcomes from a realistic point of view, are vital ingredients towards achieving success. Whether looked at from the perspective of philosophy or religion, the core idea remains the same: preparedness in combination with timeliness and patience enables us wait for a point when each and everything falls in its place. my grandma and my Mum became frustrated in repeating it for years.

I have been, in a sense, a seeker on the path of finding new ways to solve problems, and it has taken me to the world of academia, where I have publications in prominent journals with other scholars on topics ranging from ethics and corporate social responsibility to AI and Leadership.

The last papers have shared lessons from dot-com and electric vehicle hypes to ensure executives and senior managers do not commit similar failures within the AI ecosystem.

My next big step includes AIBI AI and Business, an upcoming online interactive course that I will be following to share the validated models, frameworks, and advice . This course represents the next step in my journey, where the knowledge and experiences gained are actionable for executives and practitioners.

"AI WAITS FOR NO HUMANS"
RSS feeds WordPress
April 07, 2024
AI is growing super fast—really, way faster than other tech ever did before. It keeps getting smarter at understanding data, working faster, and making complex decisions, all by itself. Unlike the old tech, AI doesn't wait for us to catch up, but keeps pushing forward.
AI is intelligent in itself. It learns, adapts, and decides things without our being the one to tell it what to do. That means it will not stop for us just because it might be bringing another big thing that we are not ready for.
In other words, we are going to have to do some serious soul searching in regard to our relationship with AI. In fact, this area needs to be preempted in areas of business and especially health and medicine so that we can realize how to fit AI into our world.
Everybody, not just the techy people, has to stay tuned for AI. It will be essential to ensure that all of us are going to be on board, handling the changes and challenges coming from AI. In short, the watch for AI is going to form such a huge fraction of our life.

* The regulations are implemented to reduce or minimise any AI-associated risks. Different jurisdictions, such as the EU, the US, and the UK, have regulations. Business organisations must have ways to predict and face these risks rather than wait for the regulations
*business leaders need to establish standards for good AI. Leaders should empathise with how AI operates and its impact, as well as with privacy, ethics, and other stakeholder considerations.
* Companies must remain alert about changing laws. They must collaborate with local legal professionals and establish global practices for ethical AI use. This will help them keep the business consistent and be trusted.
* it is up to business leaders to be involved, informed, and aware of reaping more from AI in ways that will ensure it gets applied correctly and fairly.

Fact-checkers to reduce misinformations with AI

Date : December 03, 2023

Digital misinformation has already affected several areas of human life. In addition to Governances, recognised facts in political elections, and referendums in the recent past, with further AI and ML development that can generate and modify pictures, videos, and texts and create fake news, AI fact-checkers, even with their challenges related to further development and tuning LLM and NLP to a wide number of evidence to be checked, can represent a valuable resource to fight misinformation, in areas like Politics, Academia, Medicine, Health Research, and Business ( Finance, Financial markets, products and services) through a parallel people responsibility to make ethical use of them to ripristinate the ethical value of information.

New approaches for strategy management with AI- the end or refreshing of classic tools?

Date : October 04, 2023

Most companies today still use traditional tools for making business strategies. But in the future, AI could start changing how strategy is done. AI may bring new capabilities that complement classic methods. For instance, AI can rapidly analyse customer data to detect shifts in demand. It can also quickly model different scenarios to foresee market changes. This could make planning faster and more data-driven. However, AI has limits, like lacking human judgment and creativity. So, pure AI-driven strategy may never fully replace human strategists. Rather, the optimal path forward could be combining AI strengths with human strengths. AI may become an enhancement for strategists, not a replacement. The future likely holds a hybrid model, with AI and classic tools working together in new approaches to strategy. However, widespread adoption is still gradual as companies test these uncharted waters. Strategy and Ai.

Small Language Models (SLMs)

Date : February 20, 2024

Smaller AI models cost less money to use. That saves companies money when they use these models. Companies can also adjust the smaller models to be good at certain jobs. So if a company needs an AI to do one specific thing, they can customize a smaller model just for that job. That makes the model work better. Lastly, with smaller models, companies can have tighter control over the data they put into the model. That's important so they make sure their data stays private and secure. Lots of companies want to protect customer data and business information. The smaller AI models help with that.
So the main reasons are: cheaper to use, can be customized to be great at certain tasks and helps protect important data.

The end of AI and ML "back box" with XAI- Explainable Artificial Intelligence

Date : October 04, 2023

ML and AI have been developed to optimise models by increasing accuracy or decreasing prediction error. However, this approach often overlooks the importance of understanding why and how your ML model makes the predictions that it does. Explainable AI (XAI) seeks to increase transparency within artificial intelligence systems by offering explanations of their decisions, thus increasing trustworthiness for individuals using these technologies and increasing human-align decision-making by showing how AI systems make choices and operate. Overall, this XAI initiative hopes to illuminate its "black box", creating more fair, accountable, and human-aligned systems through understandable actions and decisions made by AI systems.

Trust in AI-individuals about trust in AI, and what is expected from employees, managers, executives

Date : October 04, 2023

Right now, most regular people don't trust AI fully. Employees, managers and executives know trusting AI has risks. But some AI can be trusted for certain tasks if built right. More transparency on how AI works is needed to increase trust. With the right trust, AI adoption and new processes can thrive. However too much trust in unreliable AI can hurt accountability and let biases go unseen. The goal is balanced trust - enough to gain AI benefits but still verify its decisions. Increased trust can enable innovation, but blind trust in AI can damage workplace culture.

Increased embodied AI

Date : February 02, 2024

Embodied AI, or AI systems with physical form, will become more common beyond phones and computers. Though some will look human-like, many will likely have unique, engaging designs to make them more relatable and fun. As AI spreads to more parts of our lives through toys, home devices, and more, these creative physical forms will help people accept and bond with AI, despite its flaws. In time, friendly, helpful AI could become a regular part of our homes and daily routines.

Increasing the use of AI as an assistant companion

Date : February 02, 2024

More people will use AI to assist them with daily tasks and decisions. AI will help with research, data analysis, writing, and other jobs, acting as a tireless digital helper. Some may even delegate complex planning like vacations or ordering food to AI. As AI improves, it could take over annoying automated calls or even pre-screen dates. With many finding companionship in AI chatbots already, AI friends who conversate and provide company will likely become more advanced and widespread. In time, AI assistants, delegates, and companions could integrate deeply into how we work and live.

1 Risk Factor
Overlooked or delayed because of LLMs race and development

Date : February 20, 2024

Small AI language models today are useful for many businesses to do specific tasks at a low cost. But these small models might struggle to keep up with huge, fast advances in bigger models that have broader abilities. So the risk is that the bigger AI models could start to do so many more and better things that businesses no longer need or want the smaller models. The small AI models may not be able to compete
