Review Pursell (DeSales Univ.) and Walker (Stanford Univ., Center for Legal Informatics) provide advice on applying artificial intelligence (AI) in the business world, meanwhile dispelling the myth that AI has so far created applications only in narrow areas, e.g., playing chess. Chapters 1-3 tackle widely held AI myths, present key ideas to help businesses develop suitable AI applications, explain what AI can and cannot do, and discuss how to acquire and develop AI applications that will lead to higher profits. Chapter 4 addresses how to estimate and control costs. Chapter 5, on "AI governance," describes a specific platform (EDEN) suitable for developing business applications. The final chapter presents two EDEN case studies. One implementation, Lex Machina, was built at Stanford as open source software (OSS). The use case was to gain better control of federal intellectual property case law data. System developers used EDENs attributes: Empirical data were drawn from federal patent litigation; the Design targeted primary users--judges, attorneys and concerned citizens; the system was architected to Evolve, constantly improving the accuracy and scope of legal event classification; and complex outputs were Netted by AI weighting protocols. This very informative and readable book is suitable for business school students and faculty, especially those aspiring to leadership through increased profits and productivity.
