Artificial Intelligence for Business
Why Attend
This course is about getting you on that path. You’ll get a high-level overview of the different technologies under the umbrella of artificial intelligence. There are various examples of how to apply this technology to different business opportunities. Once you better understand the tools, you’ll be in a much better place to create long-term strategies for a new or existing business.
The business opportunities are too diverse (and as yet to be discovered) for a simple list. In this course you will understand the full scope of the technology and then be able to apply it to the opportunities in your organization or even to start a new business.
