Course offerings provide business executives with strategic insights on Generative AI's potential for digital transformation
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- MIT Sloan Executive Education announces two new courses on AI business strategies, Leading the AI-Driven Organization and Generative AI (GenAI) Business Sprint, led by Paul McDonagh-Smith, senior lecturer of IT and executive education. Leveraging insights from his 20 years of research and teaching focused on digital transformation and translating computer and data science into measurable business values, these courses will help business managers – particularly those responsible for strategic decision-making – learn how to create an effective roadmap for the implementation of AI in business practices.
Launching on April 22, 2024, "Leading the AI-Driven Organization" is a 5-day in-person program that focuses on building a clear path for strategically navigating and implementing the transformative landscape of the AI continuum, which spans from basic AI concepts to advanced technologies such as machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), generative AI, and the journey towards artificial general intelligence (AGI). This course entails an interactive and engaging learning experience through a blend of informative lectures, hands-on workshops – including building a personal generative AI chatbot and training Machine Learning Models – and group activities.
"Today's leaders need to evolve their core skills to deliver sustainable impact and value creation in the age of AI," says McDonagh-Smith. "No matter what role, function or industry you work in today, generative AI is reshaping its operations and inviting us to reimagine how we can innovate and deliver value. We're offering these courses to help leaders convert challenges to opportunities and realize the potentialities of AI technologies and their business models."
Available now, "Generative AI (GenAI) Business Sprint" is the latest addition to MIT Sloan's Business Sprint offerings, providing the opportunity for on-demand professional development. Structured as a 6-hour, self-driven, online course, participants can complete the lessons at their own pace any time over a 30-day period. Taught by world-leading generative AI faculty from the MIT Sloan School of Management and the MIT Schwarzman College of Computing, this course will enable participants to dive into technical methods underlying generative AI models and its barriers and explore how to use these technologies for organizations' competitive edge.
