WHY ROBOT

With the rapidly accelerating use of artificial intelligence and machine learning across segments, b-schools are in the process of updating their curricula in these areas. They are also integrating Al into their teaching methodology.

Sangeeta Shah Bhardwaj, professor (information management) at MDI Gurgaon, says that though there may be business leaders who are apprehensive about AI, they would have no choice but to adopt it when others start using Al-powered tools. MDI, which has a programme in business analytics, has also introduced courses like geospatial AI and AI in marketing. The geospatial AI course looks at the impact location data is having on organisations and in the startup ecosystem. It will introduce to students the principles for assessing or creating location Al-based products and interfaces.
