Artificial intelligence revolutionizes business intelligence by enhancing data-driven decision-making, automating routine analyses, and providing predictive insights. A layered technical architecture for AI integration into BI systems supports machine learning and natural language processing modules that enable real-time analytics, improved data quality, and personalized decision support. Integration challenges include legacy system interoperability, data privacy regulations, and algorithmic bias considerations. The article concludes with recommendations for future development in AI-powered BI systems.
