Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
I am writing to propose a Special Issue titled "The Use of Artificial Intelligence in Business: Innovations, Applications and Impacts". This Issue will explore the powerful and rapidly growing influence of AI technologies on how businesses operate, make decisions, engage with customers, and plan for the future. As AI continues to evolve, it is becoming an essential tool across industries—reshaping everything from supply chains to marketing strategies. We aim to bring together a collection of high-quality articles that will highlight both the opportunities and the challenges AI presents in the business world. Topics may include, but are not limited to, AI-powered business intelligence and predictive analytics for market trends, the automation of operations and logistics, machine learning for customer behavior insights, AI in financial forecasting and planning, and the ethical questions that arise when AI is integrated into corporate environments. We are also particularly interested in how generative AI is changing the way companies create content, design products, and communicate with consumers. By gathering diverse perspectives and practical case studies, this Special Issue will offer meaningful insights for researchers, professionals, and decision-makers navigating the fast-moving intersection of AI and business innovation.
