The talk traversed through how the human activity is slowly getting digitized and how the global landscape has evolved into a data - driven world. We were introduced to the concept of Algorithms and Artificial Intelligence, highlighting both the parallels and differences between Artificial Intelligence and Human intelligence. AI driven data and predictions are often unreliable due to limited data, so it's vital to use these insights judiciously.

Furthermore, Mr. Swarup shed light on key aspects of Machine Learning and its various types, highlighting how ML can quickly process and analyze vast amounts of data, uncovering patterns and insights that humans might miss. Students learnt that by harnessing tools like ML, we can solve complex problems more efficiently and drive innovation.

Mr. Swarup also advised the students on how they can navigate the ever-evolving management landscape. He emphasised the need for students to use AI and ML in a way that promotes diversity, inclusion and equity to thrive in organizations. He clarified that diversity encompasses all dimensions, inclusion means empowering everyone to contribute to decision-making and equity ensures fairness and justice.

The talk seamlessly transitioned into a discussion where Mr.Swarup highlighted the limitations of AI and ML. They can only augment and enhance human activities and cannot replace humans and their contributions. He noted that AI and ML are still evolving and have yet to reach their full potential. To maximize their benefits, he advised using these tools to automate routine tasks, while preserving the essential human element, particularly in crucial areas like recruitment and selection. This strategic approach ensures our relevance and value in the workforce.
