What Makes This Book Unique and Sets It Apart?
Merges best practice project management methodologies with practical AI applic
I picked this book from the 'Learning Guru' since I always learn a ton of new life skills. I am also managing a project in my current job, so learning more about my field and how to integrate AI and ChatGPT will help me a lot in my daily life. My favorite part about these series of books is the last part in which there are case studies and in this book, examples of real life projects: how to set goals, team assignment, risk management, monitoring and project evaluation with advice on how to use ChatGPT to complete these parts of the project more efficiently.
