ClassFAQs
The course aims to teach learners how to use generative AI models to design, evaluate, and communicate structured strategic scenarios that support decision-making in finance, economics, and enterprise planning.
The course is designed for strategists, analysts, risk managers, economists, and decision-makers who need AI-enhanced scenario-planning tools for volatile and technology-driven markets.
The module covers large language models, multimodal systems, prompt-conditioning techniques, reinforcement frameworks, and the distinction between deterministic and probabilistic AI outputs.
The course teaches hallucination mitigation techniques, expert-review loops, cross-model validation, and ethical and regulatory requirements for using generative AI in decision-critical contexts.
Learners will be able to create a full generative-AI scenario plan that includes structured assumptions, alternative paths, downside cases, validation notes, ethical controls, and a complete executive-ready briefing.
