Artificial intelligence is reducing the cost of trying out ideas. That is terrific. But lowering the cost of getting started does not automatically lower the cost of finishing well.

What if the priority an AI recommends came from your values rather than the data?
AI can bring order to chaos, but it can also manufacture premature certainty. Discover how to use artificial intelligence in decision-making without confusing a plausible answer with a diagnosis.
