Artificial Intelligence is transforming almost every dimension of business, government, and society. Are you up to speed? Do you understand the risks and rewards? Is there a strategic case for making it part of your business? Harnessing AI for Breakthrough Innovation and Strategic Impact will give you the technology lay of the land — from generative AI and full autonomy to whatever comes next. You’ll discover best practices and lessons learned from industry leaders who are actually using AI. And, you’ll explore opportunities and consequences to help you decide if — and where — investing in AI makes sense for your organization.

Faculty from Stanford Graduate School of Business, Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), School of Engineering, Law School, Medical School, and School of Humanities and Sciences will join forces to demystify AI in a non-technical way, and provide strategies and frameworks to help your organization innovate and take the lead. It’s a powerful combination of technological expertise and business innovation you’ll find only at Stanford, in the heart of Silicon Valley.
