How AI Is Reshaping American Enterprise, and Being Shaped by It

Seventy years after the term “artificial intelligence” was coined, AI has moved from research labs to everyday life, especially in business. AI isn’t just enabling businesses to become more efficient; businesses are adopting and changing AI to transform how they create value, operate, and compete. Are successful businesses the ones that reallocate human effort toward AI-enhanced judgment, oversight, and relationship-building? Or do they lead in technology innovation?

JAEI marks the 70th birthday of AI, not by looking backward but by examining how businesses are shaping AI and transforming American enterprise. Experts from academia and business will examine these questions: What industries are changing most rapidly? Which are changing the future for others? And how are we preparing business leaders for future challenges?
