25 Ways A.I. Is Changing Business

The possibilities of artificial intelligence have apparently “inebriated various seers into fantasyland” with forecasts of job creation or destruction, or with tales of the technology transforming our world into a utopian good, or into some level of evil.  Fortune Magazine confronts the realities of how A.I. is changing business, but without the melodrama.

The second reality is that A.I.’s uses will be determined largely by market forces. Artificial Intelligence will be used for numerous practical purposes, most of which will be modest.
