From hospital errors to health chatbots, research by Dr Yeun Joon Kim of Cambridge Judge, shows public unease with artificial intelligence in healthcare partly from algorithmic bias – and that tighter human-AI collaboration may hold the answer.

Artificial intelligence is transforming manufacturing in old-fashioned ways, by exposing the hidden cost of playing it safe with old instructions and by reclassifying components to save money in customs duty and other costs, say Ujjwal Pandey, Visiting Associate and co-founder of procurement platform OptiSpend AI, and Jaideep Prabhu, Professor of Marketing, of Cambridge Judge Business School, in the first of a series of articles about the use of AI in traditional industries. These big wins don’t require factory redesign, job losses or huge investment, only a willingness to let technology unlock opportunities. 

People doing humanitarian work in conflict areas and other seemingly futile situations use 3 techniques to deal with the situation and remain engaged over time, and this has implications for other traumatic work situations, says research by Madeleine Rauch and Shahzad Ansari of Cambridge Judge Business School.
