Generative AI and the enterprise context
The current market is deafening with noise around the constant stream of AI capability releases. Before we are even able to grasp an understanding of initial offerings, new possibilities arise to once again put us back in the drawing room.
In my presentation I intend to give a non-coders view on what the technology is, what it can do and what it can’t. I will present a simple framework we have developed to both understand positioning and utilization opportunities for enterprises that speaks both to IT and business professionals.
Throughout the presentation I will draw upon my extensive experience in driving automation initiatives as well as discussions I have had with people in my network, hopefully making the session thought-provoking and inspiring in addition to informing.
