Developing AI Strategy

With 31% of enterprises expected to add AI into their strategy over the next 12 months (Adobe), it’s never been more important to upskill. Today’s neural networks and machine learning algorithms are more likely to drive an autonomous car, analyse property markets, power a chatbot or help with clinical diagnoses and suggest treatments. In fact, the real challenge facing AI isn’t potential applications, it’s getting companies to recognise them.

This industry approved short course, developed with Amazon Web Services, that explores AI's potential to disrupt your business. Master the AI basics, make agile decisions, and get ahead of the curve.

BAU offers this intensive online specialisation course in collaboration with RMIT University in Australia with the aim of bringing the methods of this prestigious institution to design professionals in Europe.
