Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly becoming a central tool in business decision-making, enabling companies to enhance operational efficiency and make data-driven choices. This paper explores the transformative role of AI in business, particularly in automating decision-making processes and optimizing outcomes across key business functions such as marketing, finance, supply chain, and human resources. By leveraging AI technologies such as machine learning algorithms, data analytics, and predictive tools, businesses can make faster, more accurate, and insightful decisions. However, the integration of AI brings forth challenges such as data privacy concerns, ethical dilemmas, and the risk of algorithmic bias. This paper also delves into real-world examples of AI applications in business and discusses the necessary precautions to mitigate risks while ensuring optimal utilization. Lastly, the paper highlights the future of AI in business decision-making, offering guidance for organizations aiming to adopt AI technologies to achieve strategic goals.
