Artificial Idiocy: Why Intelligent People, Smart Organizations, and Advanced Systems Keep Making Stupid Decisions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798184422800)

Artificial Intelligence is transforming the world.

But another force has been shaping organizations for decades.

One that receives far less attention.

Artificial Idiocy.

Every year, intelligent organizations launch projects that fail, implement strategies that never deliver, pursue innovations that solve the wrong problems, and create bureaucracies that slowly disconnect them from the people they exist to serve.

Why?

Not because leaders lack intelligence.

Not because employees lack capability.

But because organizations gradually lose contact with reality.

In this groundbreaking book, strategy consultant and executive advisor Dr. Slim Saidi introduces the concept of the Reality Gap-the hidden distance between perception and reality that quietly drives many of the world's most expensive organizational failures.

Drawing on decades of international experience advising governments, boards, and corporate leaders, Artificial Idiocy explores why intelligent systems become disconnected from reality and offers a practical framework for building organizations that learn faster, adapt better, and make wiser decisions.
