Thorough explanation of benefits and challenges using AI in procurement along with examples of AI use shown in lesson 8.
thanks, it was very helpful
I appreciate the effort put into developing the course and the opportunity to explore this important topic. However, I give no STAR and must express my disappointment with the course content, unfortunately, I found it outdated, overly theoretical, and lacking practical case studies or real-world applications. Adding up-to-date insights and hands-on examples would greatly enhance the learning experience. I hope future updates address these aspects.
