We believe business leaders MUST learn AI directly from those who build AI. Not from online free videos posted by people with a underlying commercial objective... and certainly not from bloggers, web content writers or even theorists or pure academics. Which is why our Certification in AI Fundamentals, our signature program is specially designed by AI experts who actually build AI.
We believe the most critical need is to understand how AI works and how to use it. If you are a career professional or a business persona you don't need to learn to "build" AI, just learn to "use" AI. Just like you don't need a degree in electrical engineering to switch on your coffee machine. Leave building AI to the technical experts. In other words, you don’t need any programming or technical skill to learn to use AI. (NOTE: You don't need any programming knowledge to get Certified in AI Fundamentals)
We believe the most important skill for a business leader in this decade would be their ability to navigate through our AI disrupted world.
We believe AI is the single biggest opportunity of our lifetime. As per PwC it is a 16.7 trillion dollars opportunity. To get a handle on how big this is - 16.7 trillion dollars is bigger than the combined GDP of China & India today. It's that BIG...
AI is not a better way of doing business, it's a completely different way of doing business, a more powerful way. Unleashing the power of AI is like switching from an animal-drawn cart to a sports car. It's going to be radical.
AI will disrupt or impact everything AND everyone. If not directly, it will affect you indirectly as AI is changing customers behaviour as well as the social changes and that will affect you anyway. Getting ready is the only option.
Business leaders & career professionals, both need to understand AI because AI not only disrupts business but disrupts the workplace as well.
We believe that it is not just AI but AI + other innovations that will disrupt our future. For example, AI combined with a innovation in electrical motor and power storage drives the autonomous car revolution. So business leaders have to understand the entire landscape of innovations.
We believe the disruption caused by AI is going to be fast & furious and will catch most people unprepared. So unless you learn it, understand it and tap into its power, you are going to be left behind. Most of the disruptive developments are happening in stealth mode given the industry's penchant for secrecy to protect their Intellectual Property. When they surface, these changes can be virally disruptive and adopted very fast.
We believe, AI will cause massive socio-economic shifts that requires business leaders to be prepared. As per World Economic Forum, Future of Job Report 2020, AI will eliminate 85 million existing jobs & create 97 million NEW Jobs by 2025.
