Join the Artificial Intelligence Revolution
In today’s economy, from the factory floor to the CEO’s office, from public sector workers to the offices of high public officials, larger pockets of intelligence are rapidly shifting from humans to Artificial Intelligence (AI). The technology is even surpassing human intelligence in previously unimaginable ways. AI is lifting productivity, enabling automation and transforming entire industries with new tools and products such as automatic translation, self-driving vehicles, legged robots, fine motor manipulation, health diagnostics, and instant ad auctions. Even the creative arts and ethics choices are being overtaken by Artificial Intelligence.
Boosted by digitalization and rapid innovation, it has become crystal clear that the AI industry is now growing at a staggering rate. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly evident that there will continue to be a shortage of well-trained professionals in this expanding universe of AI dominance. Business leaders that don’t understand Artificial Intelligence technologies and the corresponding business transformations will fare way worse than those that do.
Brian Subirana - Professor of Artificial Intelligence
Programme Director, Double Degree Global BBA & Bachelor in Artificial Intelligence for Business
To ensure that the positive changes wrought by AI outweigh the perils, we need to educate leaders that both understand the technology and have a global understanding of management principles: That is the goal of the four-year Double Degree EADA-SKEMA Global BBA & Bachelor in Artificial Intelligence for Business (BAIB).
