This article examines how artificial intelligence is transforming strategic management of metallurgical enterprises under the influence of the new industrial revolution. The relevance of this work is determined by the need to rethink traditional approaches to strategic planning, as innovative AI technologies and growing demands for environmental responsibility in business are becoming increasingly important. A comprehensive analysis of the evolution of management practices of leading global metallurgical corporations that are implementing intelligent systems in their activities was conducted. The methodological basis of the study was a systematic approach to the study of strategic transformations, analysis of digitalization cases, and the author's conceptualization of future trends in the development of the industry. It has been established that the introduction of AI leads to qualitatively new changes in the nature of strategic thinking among managers: instead of relying on experience and intuition, managers can now make decisions based on accurate analysis of large amounts of data. It has been proven that AI technologies enable a transition from reactive management strategies to proactive models, where companies can anticipate market changes and adapt to them in advance. The results of the study show that companies that successfully integrate AI into strategic planning demonstrate increased adaptability to changing market conditions, improved resource efficiency, and a stronger position in global competition. The practical significance of the work is determined by the possibility of using the results obtained to improve the strategic management of metallurgical enterprises. The conclusions give grounds to assert that artificial intelligence acts as a catalyst for the transition of strategic management to a new level, ensuring the formation of adaptive, data-oriented, and environmentally responsible models of corporate governance.
