Abstract
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) is a scientific field and a technology that is supported by multiple techniques-such as machine learning, reasoning, knowledge representation, and optimization-And has applications in almost every aspect of everyday life. We use some form of AI when we swipe a credit card, search the Web, take a picture with our cameras, give vocal commands to our phone or other device, and interact with many apps and social media platforms. Companies of every size and business model, all over the world, are adopting AI solutions to optimize their operations, create new services and work modalities, and help their professionals to make more informed and better decisions.
