PRAISE FOR AI FOR RETAIL "Francois has truly captured the secrets of accelerating retailers' adoption of AI to dramatically increase free cash flow. This book is an absolute must-read for your entire executive team." --Don High, Former Chief Scientist, Walmart Inc. "AI is the next big thing and retailers are still getting their minds around how to use it. As Francois has discovered and explains, when you focus on automating and optimizing core tasks, the ROI can be so high and so powerful. Retailers need to be thinking very hard about AI due to their razor thin margins. It's good for the customers because it improves availability and their shopping experience, it's good for the retailer because it lowers cost and drives profitability, and it's good for brands because they sell more." --Tony DeNunzio, Former CEO, Asda "Francois adds a purity to awareness.

He refuses to accept false facts and has created a system of learning that validates observation and attacks inefficiency." --John J. Sumas, Co-President, Village Super Market Inc. "This book is wonderful reading packed with important exposure to topics in AI that retailers need to understand. Retailing in this day in age without AI is like fighting with one arm tied behind your back." --Abel Porter, Former CEO, Smith's Food & Drug, and Fairway "Nobody knows this space better than Francois, and there is no book from which you can learn so much as fast as this book." --John Linehan, President, King's Hawaiian "An excellent guide for business leaders looking to better understand AI and what it means for their future." --Francois Chollet, AI Researcher, Google "Francois has been at the forefront of bringing AI into retail with the explosive growth of deep learning over these past few years.
