With every new technology, there are risks. CEOs are in a unique position to help mitigate them by asking management teams smart questions.

Rather than giving false assurances to employees that their jobs won’t change, incorporate those changes into your AI strategy.
Radically human versions of machine intelligence, like emotion AI, have a much greater chance of instilling confidence in humans that systems are enhancing their abilities rather than replacing them.
