Artificial Intelligence (AI) has begun to take over many functions in the firm, including pricing, recruitment, talent promotion, advertising, loan issuance, default risk prediction, supply chain and inventory management and demand prediction. How will AI algorithms create value for firms and reshape corporations and industries? Your task in this essay is to:

a) Explain Machine Learning (ML), various types of machine learning, and provide examples for each type. Define ML-based artificial intelligence and explain its key functions. How does ML-based artificial intelligence differ from traditional artificial intelligence?

b) Select a firm in an industry of your choosing (e.g., banking sector, insurance, healthcare, retail etc.). Explore, in detail, three channels through which ML algorithms or AI systems can automate critical tasks or processes within the firm/organisation to create value. Support yo ur analysis by referring to specific firms or start-ups in the sector.

c) Reflect on how the management of AI-driven firms differs from the management of traditional firms. Will AI algorithms substitute or complement managers?

Richly draw on relevant peer-reviewed academic literature on management and leadership.

d) Explain how AI-driven firms will compete in the future. What will it take for an AIdriven firm to outcompete its rivals? Could AI or ML algorithms be a source of lasting competitive advantage?

understanding AI, management and strategic leadership and show an ability to
synthesise insights from diverse fields.

Remote learning and the drawbacks for students with disabilities

In Unit 3 you take a side on your chosen issue and construct and argument defending your position to your audience. For your argument, you have two approaches to choose from. You can write a classical argument where you take a position and defend it, or you can write a proposal argument where you propose a solution to a problem and explain why that solution is the best choice. We will discuss both options together as a class.

Regardless of which approach you choose, your essay should include the following information:

A clear, argumentative thesis based on the Toulmin Method (Claim + Reasons)
A brief overview of the problem or topic
Backing and justification to support your claim or proposal
A section identifying counterarguments and responding to counterarguments to your claim
Your argument must be structured around a clear thesis statement and remain grounded in the research you have collected over the course of the semester. You should use 7-10 sources in your argumentative essay.

Remember that in academic writing, your opinion must be supported by sources and should be positioned within a scholarly conversation. This means your sources should represent a variety of perspectives (including some you disagree with) and should be integrated into your writing as support for your own perspective using paraphrase, summary, and quotation. This a formal academic essay and should follow the vocabulary and grammar conventions of Standard American English.

Tips for Success

Avoid thinking of your topic as a pro-con debate (i.e. people are either for or veganism or for or against labeling GMO foods). All of the potential topics in this class are nuanced and complicated. You will write a much more successful argument essay if you can acknowledge those complications.
As much as possible, name your allies and your opponents. It is very easy to use general terms like “some people” or “those who disagree,” but these kinds of phrases lead to weak and often fallacious arguments. Connect your claims and your counterarguments to specific sources to strengthen your argument.
You may need to expand your research for this paper to make sure you are fully supporting your argument. Consider what questions readers will likely have about your claim and focus your research on answering those questions.

This paper should be submitted as a .doc or .docx file or as a PDF. Your work should be double spaced with one-inch margins. Use Calibri or Times New Roman font, size 12 for all text.

DEI factors in health and fitness

Find a topic related to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion within the health and fitness fields. Look at a peer-reviewed journal article for that topic. Use the three-legged stool for evidence– write how the journal article aligned with the known evidence by applying the Jim Kielbaso article as to whether the article had information we know works, we think might work, or we know does not work to answer the level of evidence for the article. Then, add the other two legs– was this something you have experience with, and do you think it would work for the patient/client/athlete population of the article.

help clarify what is in the syllabus, here are tips for you:
with a summary paragraph of what the article is about
Add a paragraph highlighting the evidence in the paper.
The next paragraph tells your experience?
The next paragraph is it will work with the patient population?
The last paragraph is a summary of what you feel the evidence says overall (combination of the science, your experience, and exerciser preference)
