Praise for The Book

Here are some Amazon and editorial reviews of the book.

  • One of the better AI books around – technical expertise and business acumen. Read it.

    I have been through a bunch of AI books, from building LLM’s through starting out , through to business applications through to AI in leadership. Kavita nails it with her ‘prescription without diagnosis leads only to disappointment’ approach. This is the crux of many failed AI implementations today…learn the look, where, how and how to measure the outcome of AI along with detailed segways into preparation and ML lifecycles from her approach. The chapter on real life case study and applications brings a lot of rigour to the topics discussed.

    I have kept this book on call and referred back to it a fair bit, if you are serious about business and AI implementations, you should too.

  • Easy reading for non-techies; I learned so much

    Kavita Ganesan has done a masterful job of writing a fascinating guide to AI in business. I personally feel that everyone in leadership positions in businesses big, medium, or small should read this. It is laid out in a logical order. She tells you what to expect and what you will learn. And you will learn a LOT including what not to do. And the book isn’t filled with jargon; I so appreciate that I can follow along easily. I say “masterful” because she is a pioneer in the fields of AI and data science research. Yet she is able to write for the rest of us, too.

  • An Accessible and Informative Blueprint For Executives Considering An AI Strategy

    The Business Case For AI” by Kavita Ganesan, Ph.D. is a thoughtful and accessible blueprint for executives to consider as they build out their AI strategy. From an overview of what AI is, to dispelling myths and then developing criteria to help managers select projects for AI, this book helps get the conversations going in today’s enterprises. AI is not a panacea and Dr. Ganesan is quick to point out that sometimes all a business needs is a better software solution. However, for those businesses who are able to capture high-quality data and then leverage it for a better client experience, they will emerge the winners in the long run.

    Consider the book essential if you are an executive who needs to interface with data scientists, whether they are in-house or being contracted to help implement an AI strategy.

  • A great start for those wanting to grasp AI for business

    This is a well written book and covers the 30,000 foot view of AI for business applications. This is not overly technical, but it does articulate some of the terminology from a holistic view. She also discusses points when AI may not be viable for business applications. This is definitely an eye-opener for those wanting to keep up with AI. This is only the beginning of a new realm of technologies and the author gives the ready a good start from a business perspective. Recommended.
