Due to advances in technology, particularly in artificial intelligence and robotics, the service sector is being reshaped, and AI may even be necessary for survival of the service industries. Innovations in digital technology lead to improving processes and, in many situations, are a solution to improving the efficiency and the quality of processes and services. This volume examines in depth how AI innovation is creating knowledge, improving efficiency, and elevating quality of life for millions of people and how it applies to the service industry. This volume addresses advances, issues, and challenges from several points of view from diverse service areas, including healthcare, mental health, finance, management, learning and education, and others. The authors demonstrate how service practices can incorporate the subareas of AI, such as machine learning, deep learning, blockchain, big data, neural networks, etc.
The diverse roster of chapter authors includes 48 scholars from different fields, (management, public policies, accounting, information technologies, engineering, medicine) along with executives and managers of private enterprises and public bodies in different sectors, from life sciences to healthcare. Several chapters also evaluate AI’s application in service industries during the COVID-19 era.
This book, Incorporating AI Technology in the Service Sector: Innovations in Creating Knowledge, Improving Efficiency, and Elevating Quality of Life, provides professionals, administrators, educators, researchers, and students with useful perspectives by introducing new approaches and innovations for identifying future strategies for service sector companies.
