MIT Sloan Management Review research says humans and AI together can outperform either alone, but it also warns generative AI can act as a persuasion engine that subtly shapes executive judgment.
AI is also reshaping the classroom itself, with schools using adaptive tools, simulations, avatars and AI coaching to make executive education more immersive and personalized.
