“Recent developments in AI are about lowering the cost of prediction. Better predictions matter when you make decisions in the face of uncertainty, as every business does, constantly. But how do you think through what it would take to incorporate a prediction machine into your decision-making process?

Each space on the canvas contains one of the requirements for machine-assisted decision making, beginning with a prediction. To explain how the AI Canvas works, the authors use an example crafted during one of their AI strategy workshops: home security.”
