Yes / As far back as the industrial revolution, significant development in technical innovation has succeeded
in transforming numerous manual tasks and processes that had been in existence for decades where
humans had reached the limits of physical capacity. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers this same
transformative potential for the augmentation and potential replacement of human tasks and activities
within a wide range of industrial, intellectual and social applications. The pace of change for this new
AI technological age is staggering, with new breakthroughs in algorithmic machine learning and
autonomous decision-making, engendering new opportunities for continued innovation. The impact of
AI could be significant, with industries ranging from: finance, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, supply
chain, logistics and utilities, all potentially disrupted by the onset of AI technologies. The study brings
together the collective insight from a number of leading expert contributors to highlight the significant
opportunities, realistic assessment of impact, challenges and potential research agenda posed by the
rapid emergence of AI within a number of domains: business and management, government, public
sector, and science and technology. This research offers significant and timely insight to AI technology
and its impact on the future of industry and society in general, whilst recognising the societal and
industrial influence on pace and direction of AI development.
