AI for Real-World Business

What AI actually is (and isn’t) Artificial Intelligence is a family of methods that let software learn from data to predict, generate, and optimize. You’ll mostly meet: Predictive AI: forecasting demand, churn, risk, and ETAs. Generative AI: creating text, images, code, and voice from prompts. Optimization/Decision AI: scheduling routes, inventory, and next-best actions. Myth-busting: AI won’t fix broken processes or missing data. Start with clear outcomes and good data hygiene.
