Topic I - What will be the problems you plan to solve with AI?  Ivans Novikovs TP077480 Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an emerging technology of a transformable nature that can take on numerous challenges in different sectors. The critical problems to which AI might lend a hand, from health to environmental ones, are high. Here, we delve deep into some of the grave problems for which AI is driven toward a solution and the impact it has on our future. Healthcare Improvements The health domain is one of the most important areas where AI will prove vital. AI technologies are developed for diagnostics, personalized treatment plans, and ameliorated care for patients. For instance, medical images, supported by AI algorithms, can be well analyzed for the detection of diseases like cancer at an early stage. More so, it helps in predicting the outcome based on the history of the patient, which helps the doctor in making better decisions (Esteva et al., 2017). This shall also involve t...

Topic 9 - How Might We Questions: Challenges and Opportunities for Amazon

How Might We Questions: Challenges and Opportunities for Amazon "How Might We" (HMW) questions serve as a powerful tool to frame problems and generate innovative solutions. These questions open the door to creative ideation by transforming challenges into opportunities, promoting a mindset where possibilities are explored rather than constraints. Let's delve into how Amazon, a global e-commerce and technology giant, can leverage HMW questions to tackle its challenges and seize opportunities. Understanding "How Might We" Questions The essence of HMW questions lies in their ability to reframe issues positively and collaboratively. By asking "How might we improve the shopping experience for our customers?" rather than simply identifying problems, teams can focus on potential solutions. This approach fosters a collaborative environment where diverse perspectives contribute to holistic problem-solving (Design Kit, n.d.). Effective HMW questions are specific...

Topic 1: Potential Problem Solved by AI Artificial Intelligence (AI) has great potential to address many current and future challenges in a wide range of industries. Healthcare is one important sector where AI has the potential to have a big impact. AI-powered solutions have the potential to improve patient care, treatment planning, and diagnosis due to the increasing complexity of diseases and the growing demand for medical services. Large volumes of medical data can be analyzed by machine learning algorithms, which can then be used to spot trends and forecast illnesses, allowing for early diagnosis and treatment. An example of a recent event that took place was the deployment of Elon Musk's first Neuralink patient. But first, what is Neuralink? Neuralink is a neurotechnology company founded by Elon Musk back in 2016 where it aims to develop a brain-computer interface technology that will allow the brains of patients to directly communicate with digital devices. As for the aforeme...
