4. A Global Project Management magazine
www.pmmagazine.net
pmmagazine.net
We are a team of passionate professionals who believe in sharing knowledge and are interested in contributing to the project
management community.
We noticed that there are plenty of articles being published every single day on different platforms. Sometimes you might get lucky
and have your hand on a rich content article and other times it's just a waste of time.
pmmagazine.net is a smart initiative that started in September 2018. The idea behind it is to create a project management
culture and provide professionals with a monthly collection of top articles written based on a specific theme chosen each
month. The goal is to build a database of top articles written on specific topics in which professionals can refer to whenever they
need this information. Moreover, these articles are verified and filtered among a huge bank of articles. You can also reach to the
author and connect as we provide their contact after taking their consent.

10. Computer Science
Learn by themselves
The difference between AI and
Robotics (Smart Automated System)?
VS
Engineering
Do things autonomously
Combine them
12. The Original Definition/Concept of AI
1955
A Proposal for the Dartmouth Summer Research Project on
Artificial Intelligence (August 31, 1955)
The Original 7 Aspects of AI:
1. Simulating higher functions of the human brain.
2. Programming a computer to use general language.
3. Arranging hypothetical neurons in a manner so that they
can form concepts.
4. A way to determine and measure problem complexity.
5. Self-Improvement.
6. Abstraction: Defined as the quality of dealing with ideas
rather than events.
7. Randomness and creativity.
Definition: “Every aspect of learning or any other feature of intelligence can in principle be so precisely described that a machine can be made to
simulate it. An attempt will be made to find how to make machines use language, form abstractions and concepts, solve kinds of problems now
reserved for humans, and improve themselves.”
13. Application of AI
Machine Learning
The ability of computers to learn from themselves.
This depends on training machine using datasets. It
depends on getting fed by algorithms and datasets to
recognize pattern and learn from the experience.
Deep Learning
A particular kind of machine learning that is inspired
by the functionality of our brain cells called neurons
which led to the concept of artificial neural network.
Work in abstraction for allowing the system to do
complex function mapping without depending on any
specific algorithm. NO ONE will knows what
happened in neural networks. It is like a Black Box
15. Project Management
&
The IT Industry
• AI is the new IT
• Data become our main asset
• It is time to invest in this technology
• Major changes driving the adoption
16. AI can be...
Your friend Your worst nightmare
Your Digital Assistant Your Replacement
• Continuously digest data
• Identify patterns, inconsistencies, and outlines
• Make data-driven recommendations
A few years from now, the mechanics of project management
may require no human involvement at all. Automates task
assignment, tracking and reporting to operate independently.
17. Impact on Project Management
• Re-positioning of project managers
• Improved communications
• Taking over routine task such as Performance Reporting
• Building a better communication channels (especially between team members)
• Outsourcing work (give flexibility); Intelligent machines can help save organization money, because they
don’t they won’t have to outsource much works to contractors
• Remote operations; that will lead organization to offer different life style mode that young generation want.
• Monitor Process Flows
• Check resource availability
• Assign Tasks
• Provide real-time reporting
18. Demand for predictability
Importance of predictability in every project, especially chaotic projects.
AI can monitor project performance and feed you the latest data driven analysis, which allows you to make
decision based on accurate information.
AI cam monitor (Alert System):
• Deadlines
• Productivity
• Resources
• Risks
• Quality
By monitoring those factors, you will be able to answer different questions like:
• What is the probability to deliver on-time?
• Will the project come under budget?
• Which team member is best assigned to specific tasks?
• Will schedule need/and can be compressed ?
• Which risks need to be responded to?
19. Prepare yourself,
your team, and
your organization
for the AI
Disruption
• Disruptive Technologies
• Mindset Change
• The power of imagination
20. Anticipate change
Embrace the Disruption
▪ Take initiatives
▪ Finds ways to use AI.
▪ Present to leadership.
□ no more that 10% to 20% of our jobs will be replaced, but this is not a big number.
□ 100% of the jobs in the world will change.
□ As per PMI “91% of organizations are being impacted by disruptive technologies”.
□ Change your mindset, You have anticipate and embraces AI rather than fear it.
Resistance cycle of change
▪ Frozen Phase
▪ Denial phase
▪ Struggling phase
▪ Depression Phase
▪ Experiment phase
▪ Accepting phase
21. AI & the secret sauce
Think entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurial Characteristics
• Have a creative spirit
• See opportunities
• Take ownership
• Be flexible
Leverage human creativity
Automation Risks
• Risk of automation on Human creativity
• The power of being proactive & create
opportunities (take information from a
concept and turned them to a product or
solutions.)
AI work based on the data we have, for some reasons, some data might be missed;
and here the entrepreneurship skills & human creativity to fill in the gaps
AI learn as it goes, it digest lessons learn, from previous projects, and data from current project, and pass those insight along to
you. Once you combine your entrepreneur thinking & your creativity with these insights, you will be able to connect the dots; so
you can maximize the value of your project.
22. Harness the Power
of AI to empower
your role as PM
• Transform your job
• Make new Friends (AI Digital Assistant)
23. The Power of the future project manager
The answer can be finds in the PMI triangle : AI can’t substitute “Strategic and Business Management”
and “Leadership”; and can’t substitute a project
management skills. It can augmented them, by finding
parameters, identify dependencies, and forecast
outcomes.
As long as you continue to focus on improving your
creativity into personal skills, you should be fine for NOW
Interpersonal skills:
▪ Diplomacy
▪ Negotiation
▪ Public speaking
▪ Communicating
▪ Emotional Intelligence
24. The true friend!
Initiating
Analyzing & Insights
• Decision-making
• Predictions
• Project Kickoff
• Meeting note and analysis
Executing
Optimize the process
• Complete on Time
• Complete Within Budget
• Create Dynamic Flow
It might help you to save time by accumulating & calculating large volume of data.
It is about delivering the information to you when you need it the most
The Future is happening NOW
Planning
Comprehensive Estimation &
Automated Resource Matches
• Collect Requirements
• Track Assumptions
• Archive materials
• Analyze Lesson Learned
• Create Schedules
• Develop Budgets
• Allocate Resources
• Analyze Risks / Plan Risk Responses
Monitoring & Control
Real Time View
• Status Update Reports
• KPIs
• Forecasting
• Reduce Risks
Closing
Structure & Automate the Process
• Multiple Closes / Formally accept a Project
• Archive Lessons learns
• Build Knowledge base
25. Final
recommendation
&
The common pitfalls
• Augment Human intelligence Do NOT
eliminate
• Let’s try to see how to use artificial
intelligence to help us building
companies more human.
