A fascinating look at the trailblazing companies using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create new competitive advantage, from the author of the business classic, Competing on Analytics, and the head of Deloitte's US AI practice. Though most organizations are placing modest bets on Artificial Intelligence, there is a world-class group of companies that are going all-in on the technology and radically transforming their products, processes, strategies, customer relationships, and cultures. Though these organizations represent less than 1 percent of large companies, they are all high performers in their industries. They have better business models, make better decisions, have better relationships with their customers, offer better products and services, and command higher prices. If you're curious about the next phase in the implementation of Artificial Intelligence within companies, or if you're looking to adopt this powerful technology in a more robust way yourself, All-In on AI will give you a rare inside look at what the leading adopters are doing, while providing you with the tools to put AI at the core of everything you do.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) is reshaping the globe at a rate far quicker than earlier revolutions. It is also having a greater influence on society and industry. We are currently witnessing extraordinary technology such as self-driving cars and 3D printing, as well as robots that can follow exact instructions. And hitherto unconnected sectors are combining to achieve unfathomable effects. It is critical to comprehend this new era of technology since it will significantly alter life during the next several years in this age of technological advancement. In particular, one of the most significant findings is that 4IR technologies must be used responsibly and to benefit people, companies and countries as a whole; as a result, the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, and robotics systems will be advanced most effectively by grouping a multidisciplinary team from areas such as computer science, education and social sciences.

Давид Рикардо (1772–1823) – английский экономист, последователь и одновременно оппонент Адама Смита, один из основателей классической политической экономии. В работе «Начала политической экономии и налогового обложения» автор определил главную задачу политэкономии – определение законов, управляющих распределением созданного продукта. Стоимость определяется трудом, «определение стоимости рабочим временем есть абсолютный, всеобщий закон». На основе трудовой теории стоимости Рикардо создал и теорию ренты, в которой источником ренты является не особая щедрость природы, а прилагаемый труд. Кроме того, Рикардо сформулировал теорию сравнительных преимуществ для внешней торговли, количественную теорию денег и идеологию «золотого стандарта».
