BOOK DESCRIPTION
In this book, Prof. Katarzyna Śledziewska and Prof. Renata Włoch seek answers to a number of key questions. The authors paint a picture of unimaginable development potential, but also of unprecedented challenges related to the fourth technological revolution. Companies, governments, non-governmental organizations and universities that fail to seize the opportunities arising from digital transformation and fail to cope with its negative effects will face marginalization. This diagnosis takes on particular significance in the context of the accelerating crisis, which will require reaching for unconventional solutions based on the use of the potential of data and artificial intelligence.
