While AI is being one of the most hyped technologies currently, also cautionary, and critical voices get louder that see significant risks to society if AI lacks appropriate safeguards or is misused. Yet, many companies want to be part of the AI revolution and want to benefit from an implementation of the technology. Therefore, the exploration of the impact of AI tools on daily work in businesses is necessary to determine whether the implementation of such a rapidly developing technology is beneficial. How AI could impact companies, especially in consulting, is not a deeply examined topic by now and lacks research and knowledge. Therefore, the impact that AI could have on daily work processes in a consulting company needs to be further studied. In this thesis, different use cases within the daily workflows of consultants at 3DSE Management Consultants GmbH are selected, different available AI-supported business tools evaluated, and the impact of AI determined. In this thesis, it is shown that the tasks that one must do stay the same but can now be supported by different AI tools. Especially in text processing and research tasks can be done faster, while for interviews and meetings an analysis can be done automatically. Additionally, image generation enables the creation of tailored images to a slideĀ“s content and improves presentation quality. Three different phases are identified where AI can be used as support and it is shown that the impact of AI can be improved by building functional experience with the use of AI tools and domain expertise to evaluate the correctness of the results and reach higher complexity and levels of detail. Two models are introduced that visualize the need for experience and expertise. The results prove that the implementation of AI can improve productivity of daily work in a consulting company. Even more so if certain circumstances are true. Improving experience of working with AI and expertise in the domain the tasks are located are success factors that need to be looked at by 3DSE. If done right, the implementation of AI can be enhanced to not solely personal work, but also consulting processes and ultimately integrated in the consulting service.}, language = {en} } @thesis{Babrizadeh2024, author = {Babrizadeh, Farid}, title = {Overview and systematization of different metaverses}, publisher = {Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt}, address = {Ingolstadt}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:573-46895}, pages = {VIII, 73}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Overview and Systematization of Different Metaverses}, language = {en} } @thesis{Stoychev2023, author = {Stoychev, Ventsislav}, title = {The potential benefits of implementing machine learning in supply chain management}, publisher = {Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt}, address = {Ingolstadt}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:573-37483}, pages = {IV, 70}, year = {2023}, language = {en} } @thesis{Schneider2023, author = {Schneider, Rebeka}, title = {Untersuchung von Simulationsumgebungen im Bereich der roboterbasierten Automatisierung}, publisher = {Technische Hochschule Ingolstadt}, address = {Ingolstadt}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:573-37814}, pages = {89}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Die vorliegende wissenschaftliche Arbeit bewertet mit dem Analysemodell ,5D Digital Technology Assessment Cycle' die f{\"u}nf Dimensionen des Analysemodells (Nutzen (,Benefit'), Technologiebereitschaft (,Technology Readiness'), Benutzerfreundlichkeit (,Usability') und Kosten (,Costs')) von Simulationssoftware im Bereich roboterbasierter Automatisierung.
