As AI technologies become increasingly vital across all industries, their impact on our daily lives and business practices continues to grow. From shaping management decision-making to swiftly altering work processes with cutting-edge innovations, AI is propelling us into uncharted territory. But amidst this transformation, are our perceptions of AI exaggerated?

Since ChatGPT and its self-learning capabilities gained widespread attention in 2022, Artificial Intelligence swiftly became a globally recognized term. Reactions ranged from initial excitement to concerns regarding its societal implications. But AI encompasses far more than ChatGPT – employees are already leveraging intelligent systems, and adjacent technologies such as IoT, quantum computing, and biotechnology, into numerous industries and domains.
