Abstract
The article discusses how artificial intelligence (AI) can assist companies in setting budgets, highlighting its strengths and limitations in both tactical and strategic budgeting tasks. While AI excels in optimizing short-term resource allocation and operational efficiencies, it struggles with long-term strategic planning that requires human insight. The research emphasizes the importance of integrating AI for tactical decisions and human judgment for strategic vision to achieve optimal budgeting outcomes. The article concludes that a balanced approach, like the one adopted by Uber, where AI handles tactical decisions and human oversight guides long-term goals, can lead to operational success and sustainable growth.
