Artificial Imperative
For Hubert Joly, it is critical for a business to maintain its purpose outside of its imperatives—those being people, business, and financial. AI must also exist outside of the business’s purpose. In “The Heart of Business,” Hubert Joly argued that the fundamental proposition of business is to foster and build human connections - that work is part of our fulfillment. AI should not take that away. An AI imperative would be that AI assists people, businesses, and finances but does not alter a business’s principles, values, and purpose.
