Barb Wixom reads MIT CISR's May 2024 research briefing, which she co-authored with Cynthia Beath. See the text version and related content at https://cisr.mit.edu/publication/2024_0501_AIEverybodysBusiness_WixomBeath. Abstract: This briefing presents three principles to guide business leaders when making AI investments: invest in practices that build capabilities required for AI, involve all your people in your AI journey, and focus on realizing value from your AI projects. The principles are supported by the MIT CISR data monetization research, and the briefing illustrates them using examples from the Australia Taxation Office and CarMax. The three principles apply to any kind of AI, defined as technology that performs human-like cognitive tasks; subsequent briefings will present management advice distinct to machine learning and generative tools, respectively.
