Digital Economy: Technology and Artificial Intelligence

The digital economy raises many issues that require new and specialized analyses—including multidisciplinary expertise, sophisticated modeling, or machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques.

Data-driven businesses systematically use customer information to improve processes, deliver new products, and provide a more customized experience for consumers. The collection and use of such data, however, can lead to allegations of privacy and security breaches, anticompetitive behavior, discrimination, and market manipulation.
