The premise of this article is that companies need to learn to operate on different time scales: using "modern technologies, such as sensors, digital platforms, and AI" in order to "operate at superhuman speed, learning about the market and reacting in seconds or even milliseconds"; and "longer timescales, as social, political, and economic shifts gradually reshape the business context" (I would call this strategy "from pixel to pivot", but I'm terrible at naming things). Anyhow, to address this need, the article recommends learning companies focus on human-machine collaboration, and in particular, invest in autonomous technologies, design effective human–machine interfaces, ambed autonomous learning loops throughout the enterprise, and measure.
