Artificial Intelligence: The Business of Change

Wildcat Conversations

Right now, artificial intelligence (AI) is shaking up almost every industry and market faster than most can understand. While predictions for 2024 and beyond only point to this trend continuing, AI is still a mystery to many people.

To help us learn more about where AI is going, why it’s moving so fast, and how we can think about it with more optimism than dread, we looked to three alums working at the forefront of this new technological evolution. Along with Chico State professor Abbas Attarwala, we dove into everything you’re curious about but don’t know who to ask.
