Summary "From the year 2000 to the year 2020, over 50% of the Fortune 500 list have dropped off the list, either through closing their doors or falling below the line. Digital Transformation has shaped and reshaped market leadership across sectors. Now and in the near future, Autonomous Transformation will reimagine the business, economic, and societal landscape. Artificial Intelligence was coined as a concept in 1956, and the last 66 years have laid the computational, philosophical, and organizational foundation for this new era. This book ties together strategy, business, economics, and philosophy -- with input from leaders across the private and public sectors, non-profits, academia, and research institutes to create a holistic, action-oriented picture of Autonomous AI, the historical progression of AI/machine learning that's led to this stage, and the risks and opportunities autonomous AI presents to the world, and what leaders can and should do to responsibly ensure this technology is leveraged to create a more human future."-- Provided by publisher.
