Foreword
It gives me immense pleasure to write the foreword to this book. In choosing the impact of artificial intelligence on organizational transformation as their subject, the editors have selected a subject that has great contemporary relevance. Artificial intelligence is here to stay and will continue to flourish. It has come a long way since it was conceived a few decades back. Previously, its application was confined to automation in manufacturing only, but with the passage of time has expanded to cover almost every sphere of human activity.
Organizational transformation does not happen overnight. One has to steadily and meticulously strive and work hard to achieve it. Artificial intelligence is definitely contributing in a big way towards the organizational transformation of both the manufacturing and service sectors. Against this backdrop, I am optimistic that the book will make for interesting reading. I extend my best wishes to the entire editorial team for this sterling academic endeavor.

Preface
The idea of a book on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on organizational transformation occurred to us almost simultaneously. Even though we realized putting together an edited volume on such an ever-evolving topic would not be an easy task, the capacity that AI has to significantly transform organizations is too important to ignore. Therefore, we started deliberating as to how to include scholarly research articles written by eminent academicians on the topic. The outcome of our deliberations can be seen in the quality of the chapters included in this book, which highlight the applications and interlinkages of artificial intelligence with HR function, and its application in the banking and finance sector, along with many other diverse sectors such as energy and sports. One of the chapters even discusses how AI is revolutionizing India byte by byte.
All of us are highly grateful to the authors for taking time to contribute to this book despite the tense situation caused by the lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) disruption is rapidly revolutionizing the various functions of HR, marketing, finance, etc. Before the advent of AI, several biases occurred on part of humans in terms of hiring, promotion, performance appraisal, compensation, etc. Similarly, in marketing, the customers’ needs and wants are of immense importance for marketers. Traditional marketing generally used feedback from consumers and also the managers had to rely on the market research to interpret the market trends, customers’ needs, tastes, and preferences. But now AI disruption has addressed the HR issues and made substantial improvements in the prediction of precise trends, customer purchase intention, and consumer behavior.
Thus, the paper attempts to unravel how AI is revolutionizing the various functions of HR and marketing. The study elucidates that AI has revolutionized the functions of HR by removing biases in recruitment and performance appraisal and is assisting the organizations in employee engagement and retention. It has made the orientation and onboarding process easy. AI has widely reduced the cost of the organizations with respect to hiring, training, etc. Similarly, in the field of marketing, the study also elucidates that with the advent of technological advancement during recent times (AI), a wealth of information about the consumers, their consumption patterns, and purchase behavior can be traced to a large extent. AI has opened an opportunity for marketers to enhance the effectiveness of the marketing campaigns which can be measured as a return on investment (ROI). AI is enhancing the marketing strategies for businesses. AI disruption is helping in quick and effective decisions. AI is optimizing the advertising and customer segmentation and is also helping companies with better product design to the delight of the customers.
Thus, the managers should look to AI as a tool for empowering and supporting their employees rather than replacing them. Since AI automates various process-oriented and administrative tasks, therefore managers should adopt AI so that they may shift their focus from administrative tasks to cross-functional reasoning tasks. Such a human-machine association will generate various new jobs and will pave way for innovation.
