I like the content of the book however some of the chapters were very abstract and the examples weren’t in adequate details. I’d have given it a 4-star if they didn’t refer to their website multiple times in each chapter that made me feel like I’m reading an advertising booklet.

Fantastic non-technical summary for business leaders

[Iván Braga · Rating 3 out of 5]

Un libro más bien general sobre el tema que ofrece un enfoque para ver distintas aristas del fenómeno e incluye recomendaciones para aproximarse a él. Si bien no se espera un libro específico o especializado, la verdad es que el enfoque es tan genérico que aporta poco más allá de algunas referencias y preguntas que caen en el sentido común. Si aporta un orden para ver el tema y una buena lista de referencias bibliográficas.

It's not a bad book, but a pretty superficial one. It's probably more suitable to be an ebook.
It introduced different kinds of AI in brief (very brief) in the first chapters, and later on went on to talk about very general implementation process that's not specific for AI.
I would recommend reading it if you are VERY new to project management in the digital ages.

Extremely quick & very approachable read for business leaders. One of the most comprehensive & practical guides I’ve read. Plus FOUR women authors!!!

3,5- very general, I would have expected a bit more info about the different ways to use AI in a business, but I still have to check their resources website..
