TRANSFORMING PROBLEM-SOLVING & DECISION MAKING IN THE AGE OF AI 


THE AI OPPORTUNITY

AI Opportunity Segments encompass two distinct waves, each contributing to the evolution of artificial intelligence.

In the first wave, termed "Everyday-Automation," AI is harnessed to enhance productivity in routine tasks. This involves streamlining and automating everyday processes to improve efficiency and reduce human effort. In the second wave, known as "Game-Changing Augmentation," AI takes on a transformative role by focusing on creativity. This phase goes beyond routine automation and explores how AI can augment human capabilities, particularly in areas requiring innovative thinking and problem-solving. Game-changing AI aims to empower individuals and organizations to unlock new possibilities and drive creative advancements in various domains. Together, these waves represent a spectrum of opportunities where AI can be leveraged to address both operational needs and catalyze groundbreaking transformations.

WAVE 2 EMERGES AS A TRANSFORMATIVE FORCE

AI transcends mere automation and ventures into realms of creativity.

In the landscape of artificial intelligence, Wave 2 emerges as a transformative force, representing a paradigm shift from routine automation to creative exploration. During this phase, AI goes beyond the confines of mundane tasks and steps into uncharted territories of creativity. Rather than simply executing predefined instructions, Wave 2 AI systems showcase the ability to ideate, innovate, and contribute to problem-solving in dynamic and novel ways. This transformative force paves the way for a future where artificial intelligence becomes a catalyst for imaginative thinking, pushing the boundaries of what was once thought possible.

PERSONAL CONSULTANT (PC) EXPERIENCE: EASY TO ACCESS AND USE

The Personal Consultant (PC) redefines user experience with its intuitive design, ensuring effortless access and user-friendly interactions.

The platform is engineered for ease of use, allowing individuals to navigate and harness its capabilities without unnecessary complexity. One distinctive feature is the intelligent prompting mechanism that provides users with multiple perspectives. This functionality goes beyond traditional prompts, offering a system view that encompasses predictions, optimal solutions, and strategic decisions. The PC, equipped with advanced algorithms, generates prompts that consider various angles and insights, enhancing the depth and breadth of decision-making. At the heart of the PC experience is the application of the 5S Problem-Solving & Decision Process. This structured approach involves five key steps: Sense (Discovery): Immerse in the challenge through observation and engagement. State (Define): Clearly articulate the problem and potential solutions. Structure: Organize and structure the identified solutions. Solve: Identify and implement the best solution. Sell (Communicate): Convey the chosen solution convincingly. By combining an intuitive user interface, intelligent prompting, and a robust problem-solving framework, the PC experience ensures that users can effortlessly navigate complex scenarios, make informed decisions, and drive strategic initiatives with confidence.

FINDING THE OPTIMAL BUSINESS SOLUTION

in the pursuit of an optimal solution, the AI-driven process involves creatively identifying a spectrum of potential solutions.

This step encompasses a comprehensive exploration of various alternatives, fostering a dynamic approach to problem-solving. Once these possibilities are generated, the focus shifts to the optimization of predictions, aiming to pinpoint the most effective actions that align with the desired goal. This two-fold process ensures not only a diverse range of potential solutions but also a meticulous analysis to identify and implement the best course of action, ultimately contributing to the achievement of strategic objectives with precision and efficiency.

PROBLEM SOLVING WITH AGILE SPRINTS

AI problem solving in co-working sprints relies on decoupling human judgment and AI predictions to generate innovative solutions.

This approach makes it possible to optimally utilize the strengths of both components. The S5 Model of Problem Solving and Innovation acts as a guide for this process. The first step, “Sense,” involves discovering challenges through immersion, observation, and engagement. In the second step, "State", you define the solution to the problem. The solutions are then structured in the “Structure” step. In the fourth step, “Solve”, the best solution is found. Finally, in the “Sell” step, the solution is convincingly communicated. This iterative approach makes it possible to address problems creatively in a short time and to implement innovative ideas efficiently.

ON-DEMAND INNOVATION PROGRAM: #8 SPRINTS

In the on-demand innovation program, consisting of #8 sprints, strategic processes are defined to effectively address challenges

In the first step, “Strategic Framing”, search fields are defined and prioritized based on strategic inputs. This forms the basis for the following steps. The “problem posing” step focuses on exploring the problem space and discovering unresolved problems. Building on this, “concept ideation” occurs, in which solution concepts are generated to address the identified problems. In the “concept creation” step, these solution concepts are prioritized, checked for plausibility and a comprehensive validation strategy is developed. The subsequent steps include “concept validation” and “incubation,” where a repeatable sales process is created and validated to bridge the gap between early adopters and mass-market customers. The “Scaling/Development” focuses on developing the offering and organization for the mass market, while the final step “Operations” involves the continuous introduction of the product to market. Field data is collected to continuously improve the product and meet market requirements.
