Digital transformation, which is the beginning of a new era, and performed in order to provide a more effective service, has become a compulsory situation for the enterprises that take into account the increasing corporate volumes. However, the processes and technologies used in this transformation may change according to the enterprise volume and needs. At this point, activities that implement artificial intelligence technologies will make significant contributions to digital transformation. Artificial intelligence technologies serve many purposes such as search, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, learning, estimating, analytical thinking, optimization, and planning. The purpose of this chapter is to demonstrate the effects of artificial intelligence techniques on the processes of digital transformation utilized in enterprises by considering the difficulties experienced in the realization of digital transformation. It is expected that the study will provide a perspective for other studies on digital transformation and thus create an awareness.

AbstractThe first few months of 2020 have profoundly changed the way we live our lives and carry out our daily activities. Although the widespread use of futuristic robotaxis and self-driving commercial vehicles has not yet become a reality, the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically accelerated the adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in different fields. We have witnessed the equivalent of two years of digital transformation compressed into just a few months. Whether it is in tracing epidemiological peaks or in transacting contactless payments, the impact of these developments has been almost immediate, and a window has opened up on what is to come. Here we analyze and discuss how AI can support us in facing the ongoing pandemic. Despite the numerous and undeniable contributions of AI, clinical trials and human skills are still required. Even if different strategies have been developed in different states worldwide, the fight against the pandemic seems to have found everywhere a valuable ally in AI, a global and open-source tool capable of providing assistance in this health emergency. A careful AI application would enable us to operate within this complex scenario involving healthcare, society and research.

The role of artificial intelligence and its applications has been increasing at a rapid pace in the field of gastroenterology. The application of artificial intelligence in gastroenterology ranges from colon cancer screening and characterization of dysplastic and neoplastic polyps to the endoscopic ultrasonographic evaluation of pancreatic diseases. Artificial intelligence has been found to be useful in the evaluation and enhancement of the quality measure for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Similarly, artificial intelligence techniques like artificial neural networks and faster region-based convolution network are showing promising results in early and accurate diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and its differentiation from chronic pancreatitis. Other artificial intelligence techniques like radiomics-based computer-aided diagnosis systems could help to differentiate between various types of cystic pancreatic lesions. Artificial intelligence and computer-aided systems also showing promising results in the diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma and the prediction of choledocholithiasis. In this review, we discuss the role of artificial intelligence in establishing diagnosis, prognosis, predicting response to treatment, and guiding therapeutics in the pancreaticobiliary system.

Digital transformation of business is an increasingly pressing issue for top management of the companies across the world. Appointing dedicated executive is a popular measure undertaken to respond to the challenges of the new era. Many view the role of CDO (Chief Digital Officer) to be “the most exciting strategic role in the coming decade”. There is a wide range of views on the CDO's role, agenda, and competencies. Depending on the nature and the environment of a given business, there are three possible strategic approaches to the digital transformation: “fully digital”, “digitally wrapped”, and “digitally spiced”. Each of these requires a CDO, the digital transformation-focused executive, as an important condition for success, yet the range of tasks such a manager handles is profoundly different in each case. The role of CDO is defined by a diverse and demanding set of requirements; the perfect CDO is a manager with a variety of functions who actively interacts with other executives and has profound knowledge and strong managerial skills.

Many companies have recently started digital transformation initiatives, and they now increasingly focus on artificial intelligence (AI). By means of smart algorithms and advanced analytics, firms attempt to leverage some of the results of their ongoing digital transformation initiatives, for example with regard to data about their established business operations. A conceptual framework underscores the need for combining data management and AI initiatives in order to ensure a firm's digital readiness and to realize digital business opportunities subsequently. An overview of recent trends further illustrates how different companies respond to these managerial challenges. This paper contributes to the literature on digitalization, AI, and ‘integrated intelligence' by highlighting the role of AI for leveraging data from digital transformation initiatives. Specifically, the use of AI applications helps companies to turn data into valuable knowledge and intelligence. In addition, this paper provides new knowledge about achieving superior performance in the digital economy.

Abstract Oil and Gas operations are now being "datafied." Datafication in the oil industry refers to systematically extracting data from the various oilfield activities that are naturally occurring. Successful digital transformation hinges critically on an organization's ability to extract value from data. Extracting and analyzing data is getting harder as the volume, variety, and velocity of data continues to increase. Analytics can help us make better decisions, only if we can trust the integrity of the data going into the system. As digital technology continues to play a pivotal role in the oil industry, the role of reliable data and analytics has never been more consequential. This paper is an empirical analysis of how Artificial Intelligence (AI), big data and analytics has redefined oil and gas operations. It takes a deep dive into various AI and analytics technologies reshaping the industry, specifically as it relates to exploration and production operations, as well as other sectors of the industry. Several illustrative examples of transformative technologies reshaping the oil and gas value chain along with their innovative applications in real-time decision making are highlighted. It also describes the significant challenges that AI presents in the oil industry including algorithmic bias, cybersecurity, and trust. With digital transformation poised to re-invent the oil & gas industry, the paper also discusses energy transition, and makes some bold predictions about the oil industry of the future and the role of AI in that future. Big data lays the foundation for the broad adoption and application of artificial intelligence. Analytics and AI are going to be very powerful tools for making predictions with a precision that was previously impossible. Analysis of some of the AI and analytics tools studied shows that there is a huge gap between the people who use the data and the metadata. AI is as good as the ecosystem that supports it. Trusting AI and feeling confident with its decisions starts with trustworthy data. The data needs to be clean, accurate, devoid of bias, and protected. As the relationship between man and machine continues to evolve, and organizations continue to rely on data analytics to provide decision support services, it is imperative that we safeguard against making important technical and management decisions based on invalid or biased data and algorithm. The variegated outcomes observed from some of the AI and analytics tools studied in this research shows that, when it comes to adopting AI and analytics, the worm remains buried in the apple.

Abstract: Artificial Intelligence is a branch of computer science that enables to analyse complex medical data. The proficiency of artificial intelligence techniques has been explored to a great extent in the field of medicine. Most of the medications go to the business sector after a long tedious process of drug development. It can take a period of 10-15 years or more to convey a medication from its introductory revelation to the hands of the patients. Artificial Intelligence can significantly reduce the time required and can also cut down the expenses by half. Among the methods, artificial neural network is the most widely used analytical tool while other techniques like fuzzy expert systems, natural language processing, robotic process automation and evolutionary computation have been used in different clinical settings. The aim of this paper is to discuss the different artificial intelligence techniques and provide a perspective on the benefits, future opportunities and risks of established artificial intelligence applications in clinical practice on medical education, physicians, healthcare institutions and bioethics.

In recent years artificial intelligence has entered a new era, which gives rise to many hopes for powerful states such as the United States and China. In this paper, we analyze the importance and role of artificial intelligence in technological development in each of the two countries on the one hand, and its influence on China-American relations in terms of technological and geopolitical conflict. To get the right results, we rely on a literature review of dozens of articles published on the phenomenon in order to compare the power of artificial intelligence between the United States and China where we found that the US still has technological strength, especially in the field of artificial intelligence, but we can say that a large force is beginning pose a threat for it which is China that has great technological capabilities so, we can say that the United States should work more in this field. Also, we found that artificial intelligence has a primary goal in both countries, it helps China to achieve its ambitions to be the leader of the world, and this intelligence, on the other hand, provides protection and security to the United States. This paper is divided into three sections. The first section focuses on the importance of artificial intelligence in achieving China’s ambitions, the second section explains the role of artificial intelligence in the US protection service, and the third section describes the technological and geopolitical conflict resulting from the competition in artificial intelligence between these two countries. Keywords: Artificial intelligence, United States, China, Conflict, leader.
