商品描述

This book examines the impact of AI and the financial crisis on African nations and the issues that surround its reciprocal impact on global business, government, and society. The global financial crisis and artificial intelligence (AI) have an equal and synergistic impact on economic development in Africa. While the global financial crisis has presented significant challenges to African businesses, AI has presented significant opportunities to alleviate these challenges. Featuring selected papers presented at the 5th Annual Current Business Issues in African Countries (CBIAC) Conference held in Hoboken, NJ, USA, in May 2024, this book focuses on the synergies between climate change, supply chain, and sustainable development featuring content from business and NGO leaders, faculty, and students.

The impetus of the CBIAC conference was the discussions held at the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) held in Nairobi, Keyna, in July 2016 and in Bridgetown, Barbados, and Geneva in 2021. The goal of the conference is to create long-term collaborative relationship between business leaders, faculty, researchers, students, and community members from different African nations.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討人工智慧(AI)和金融危機對非洲國家的影響,以及其對全球商業、政府和社會的相互影響所帶來的問題。全球金融危機和人工智慧對非洲的經濟發展具有相等且協同的影響。儘管全球金融危機對非洲企業帶來了重大挑戰,但人工智慧則提供了緩解這些挑戰的重要機會。本書收錄了於2024年5月在美國新澤西州霍博肯舉行的第五屆非洲國家當前商業議題年會(CBIAC)上發表的選定論文,重點關注氣候變遷、供應鏈和可持續發展之間的協同效應,內容來自商業和非政府組織(NGO)領袖、學術界和學生。

CBIAC會議的動機源自於2016年7月在肯尼亞內羅畢舉行的聯合國貿易和發展會議(UNCTAD)以及2021年在巴巴多斯布里奇頓和日內瓦舉行的討論。會議的目標是建立來自不同非洲國家的商業領袖、學術界、研究人員、學生和社區成員之間的長期合作關係。
