The Importance of Creating Artificial Intelligence Supported Future Scenarios in Decision Making Processes

/0 Comments/in /by

Artificial intelligence technologies are rapidly developing and having a major impact on the business world. Decision-making processes play an important role for the success of an organization. However, in today’s business world with its complexity and uncertainty, it becomes difficult to manage decision-making processes. At this point, creating future scenarios supported by artificial intelligence and working on different scenarios helps businesses to be more prepared for uncertainty.

Artificial intelligence-supported scenarios can be utilized across various sectors and fields of work. AI enables businesses to analyze past data, predict trends, and consequently work on future scenarios to make more informed decisions. The significance of future scenarios lies in identifying risks and opportunities in advance, adapting to future changes, and being proactive in competition. By evaluating potential developments, shaping your business strategy, you can gain a competitive advantage and make more reliable decisions.

Qualitative methods were employed in the research. Interviews were conducted with managers from 6 different professional groups (software, biomedical, public, construction, university, e-commerce). Data was collected and analyzed using semi-structured interview forms consisting of 4 questions. When the findings were evaluated, no concerns or negative expressions regarding the use of artificial intelligence were expressed. Except for public institutions, everyone has AI in their planning. Each sector believes it is important. No negative concerns were expressed. The prominent concepts in the findings are: Speed, big data, gaining competitive advantage, personalized customer experience, risk analysis, cost advantage, technology adaptation, optimization, accurate and fast situation detection, efficiency, etc.

It is thought that the research will create significant awareness for businesses in the turbulent period of the 21st century, where uncertainties are greater than ever. Despite all the positive aspects, AI-supported decision-making processes also carry some risks. The most prominent risks include the applicability of AI-supported scenarios, security concerns, the existence of ill-trained AI models, ethical issues and data privacy.

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Enhancing Employee Performance through SHRM and Organizational Creativity at ABC Bank Yogyakarta Area Office

/in /by

This study explores the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in mediating the effects of Sustainability Human Resource Management (SHRM) and Organizational Creativity on employee performance. Conducted at ABC Bank’s Yogyakarta Area Office, the research employs a quantitative survey method and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze data. SHRM practices, including HR development, diversity, and occupational safety, directly contribute to employee engagement and productivity. Similarly, Organizational Creativity, encompassing individual creativity, team collaboration, and knowledge creation, enhances innovation and adaptability within the workplace.

The findings demonstrate that SHRM and Organizational Creativity have a significant positive impact on employee performance. SHRM fosters a sustainable work environment, while Organizational Creativity drives the generation of new ideas and solutions to meet organizational goals. However, AI’s role as a mediator between these variables and employee performance was found to be statistically insignificant. This suggests that while AI facilitates HR processes and supports strategic decisions, its integration as a mediator depends on factors such as technological readiness and employee adaptability.

This study underscores the importance of aligning SHRM and Organizational Creativity with technological advancements to enhance employee performance. While the mediating effect of AI requires further exploration, its potential to transform HR and creativity processes remains promising. These findings provide valuable insights for organizations seeking to optimize employee performance by leveraging sustainable practices, fostering innovation, and integrating advanced technologies.

Strategic Decision-Making: Implementing Artificial Intelligence for Customer Experience in XYZ Electricity

/in /by

This case study outlines the challenges in resolving customer complaints at XYZ electricity provider, where the industry achieves only 89.16% against a 100% service level agreement, leading to poor customer experience (CX). The objective of this paper is not only to identify the root causes of poor CX and validate artificial intelligence (AI)’s potential role as a solution, but also to pioneer the identification of critical success factors (CSFs) and strategic areas for AI implementation, leveraging computational ratings to enhance decision-making processes. This research employs comprehensive data collection methods, including primary data from interviews and workshops involving 300 participants and secondary data from observation and literature studies. It utilizes an integrative strategy framework (ISF) to strategically synthesize internal and external analyses. Additionally, it ranks critical areas for AI implementation using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) based on pairwise judgment and Likert scale surveys from ten experts. The most significant findings reveal that direct impact on customers, at 28.54%, is the strongest CSF, while customer service, 14,63%, is the most impactful implementation of AI in the XYZ to fix poor CX. A pilot project on customer service can improve CX, revenue, and cost savings. The authors suggests that another researcher implement and evaluate AI in various businesses and specific client categories.

Discerning Digital from Canvas: Investigating Visual Distinction between AI-Generated Art and Actual Art among Far Eastern University’s Institute of Architecture and Fine Arts (IARFA) and Non-IARFA Students

/in /by

Artificial Intelligence is one of the current generation’s inventions that has been widely used. It has helped make lives easier, especially regarding appliances and business, and it has also altered various industries, including the arts. However, this development has sparked different perspectives among artists and non-artists. This study aims to evaluate how students, both artists, and non-artists, perceive the differences between real art and artificial intelligence-generated art. For this study, a total of fifty (50) students will be gathered, consisting of twenty-five (25) non-artist students from different courses and twenty-five (25) artist students from the IARFA Institute of Far Eastern University. The participants will receive the questionnaire via Messenger. The results of this study showed that the participants could differentiate actual art from AI-generated art based on their knowledge when evaluating artworks. Additionally, it demonstrates that artist students showed more confidence in determining actual artworks from AI-generated artworks due to their knowledge. While non-artists remain skeptical in determining artworks as they base their perception on how they see art.

/in /by

In an era characterized by modernization and technological advancements, the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) has brought changes to the different processes of various industries, including the field of architecture. To address concerns and present the views of those in the industry, this research aims to identify and describe the perceptions of Architecture students from various universities/colleges towards adopting AI in Architectural Design through descriptive-correlational research. As well as to discover the students’ acceptance level in adopting artificial intelligence in academic curriculum. Forty-five (45) university/college students enrolled in an Architecture program across diverse institutions drawn from a purposive sampling method answered a survey questionnaire containing Twenty (20) questions answerable by a 5-point Likert Scale. The results revealed that the students’ perceptions were neutral regarding adopting artificial intelligence in academic curriculum and future employment and careers. The correlational analysis suggested that the relationship between the perception of AI in architecture and its impact on career and employment was weak as they saw the potential threat of AI in future employment opportunities. The researchers recommended the results of this study for future research when gathering data related to artificial intelligence, the perception of the students, and the development of AI on how to improve and recognize the limitations of its use.
