Viktor Dörfler

I am a scholar, consultant, teacher, and speaker.  I am a Professor of AI Strategy at the University of Strathclyde Business School, Glasgow, UK, and hold a Visiting Professor position at the Economics Faculty of the University of Zagreb, Croatia and a Research Professor position at the Strategy and Management Institute of the Corvinus University of Budapest, Hungary.  I have worked in the field of AI for 25 years, during which I spearheaded the development of AI software (1999-2004), designed intelligent platforms, and conducted a number of AI implementations.  Meanwhile, my scholarly research focused on talent, creativity, the nature of knowledge, and the grandmaster-apprentice relationship.  In this role, I conducted in-depth open-ended interviews with 20 top scientists, including 17 Nobel Laureates, in order to understand the thinking of scientists at the highest level of mastery.  Through the synthesis of these two areas, my recent focus is on the human side of AI implementations.  My book What Every CEO Should Know About AI was published by the Cambridge University Press in 2022 followed by the Turkish edition in 2023.
