About Programme

Programme OverviewArtificial Intelligence (AI) has become a decisive technology for the growth of every organization. Sophistication in AI is expected to be the main differentiator between high-performing companies and low-performing companies. The use of AI and its components such as statistical, machine and deep learning are expected to increase the stakeholder value and customer experience and satisfaction. The algorithmic aspects of AI are available readily through many sources; however, many companies still struggle with adapting AI to the organization. For example, companies struggle to find answers to the following questions :

What constitutes an AI company?What should be the strategy for building an AI initiative within an organization? How to build an AI team? What problems can be solved using AI? Understate Generative AI and Its Applications.
