Mission & Content Summary

MISSION

The goal of this course is to teach students to make decisions under uncertainty and use AI tools to support thee decisions. The course is open to students with technical and non-technical backgrounds. The content will be differentiated depending on the background of the student to bring everyone up to speed with the use of generative AI for strategic decision making in firms and organizations more generally. Students with technical background may be asked to code tools and analyze data. Students with less advanced technical background may be asked to assess strategic management decisions and design the underlying logic so that the underlying process of these decisions can be coded. Ultimately, the goal of the course is to teach all students to learn the microfoundations of strategic decisions and how AI tools can support these decisions. The course will make extensive use of available AI-agents and tools from the ION Management Science Lab.
