Business growth with AI

Hypothetical Case Simulation:

You are the CEO of business (in an industry you will select) that is considering  a new AI application called Dublin-10, to automate a system and bring efficiency to operations. An ROI study has convinced you this innovation will enable the business to eventually save costs and almost immediately expand production. However, it also will result in elimination of some employees’ job duties and at the same time increase other needed work. To avoid having to lay off employees whose work will change as a result of this innovation, you plan to roll out a retraining program for affected employees, as well as conduct the training required for the Dublin-10. None of this has been announced to employees.

As the business’ leader, prepare and post your response to the following prompt.

PROMPT (2 parts – narrative + video):

1. The hypothethical is purposely generic. For your response, choose a specific industry and business for this case. In a sentence or two, for context, describe the business. 2.    You have done the ROI, determined need, and impact on workforce job duties. What else should you consider? There are several management concerns when implementing change, but for this Discussion explain at least 2 other planning concerns or actions you should cover specifically relating to your business’ implementation of the new AI, Dublin-10? (Approximately 250-300 words.)3.    Prepare and post a 1 to 2 minute video message to your employees announcing the DUBLIN-10 and company’s training plans. Consider how this should be presented. This video can be prepared using the VIDEO INSERT tool in the Discussion box. Step-by-step instructions are attached here and in the Week 6 Lesson.
