Description: Updated for a post-Covid world, the second edition of this groundbreaking book explains why becoming a Humachine enterprise is the only way forward for a company to maintain a competitive advantage in the age of artificial intelligence (AI).
Now, in the face of the "Great Resignation" and "botsourcing," thought leaders Sanders and Wood present a more positive and promising scenario, where an enterprise recognizes human resources as an asset class that possesses skills that cannot be replaced by automation. Enlightened business leaders will look to create synergy between technology and people, enabling the organization to maximize its capabilities by elevating the basis of decision making with closer-to-perfect information and rationality. This book provides a roadmap for how to do this and achieve collective intelligence at the enterprise level: superintelligence. More specifically, it answers these questions, and more: Why must an enterprise achieve superintelligence as a competitive advantage in the age of AI?; How can any organization achieve superintelligence by following the 4-I model?; What is the step-by-step process an enterprise should follow in becoming a Humachine?; What strategies can be used by enterprise leaders to "futureproof" the Humachine against uncertainty?Brief description: Nada R.
