ABOUT RESEARCH  

 The candidates will be members of the SKEMA Center for Artificial Intelligence (SCAI), a research centre dedicated to exploring how AI Systems interact and collaborate with people to enhance human abilities and empower both individuals and society creating sustainable value at four different levels: 

• Business value: how AI becomes part of the products themselves, improves performance across the value chain, or enables ecosystems and collaboration with new markets. 

• Ethical value: how to foster explicability and responsible AI to guarantee social fairness in respect of human freedoms and dignity. 

• Societal value: how AI contributes to environmental sustainability, encourages a new social contract based on accountability. 

• Algorithmic value: developing AI techniques and algorithms with increasingly superior performance while attending to the explainability of such techniques to assure that the other kinds of value can be enabled.  

Through this Research Centre, we want to analyze the impact of Artificial Intelligence on a broad range of business and management subjects (ranging from finance, marketing, strategy, to innovation and entrepreneurship) and cover a multitude of different sectors (such as education, energy, health care, public administration, banks, insurance, retail, tourism, and luxury) offering guidance to organizations on how to best use AI for sustainable value creation.
