Attention business and product leaders! I invite you to join a bootcamp on Generative AI led by Professor Hamza Farooq. I, along with several others, will also be contributing to the sessions. Why is this important for you? Not long ago, during a tech leaders' roundtable I attended, a compelling case was shared (with permission I share it here) about how a major organization struggles with the slow adoption of Generative AI. The primary bottleneck? Discussions often center on the technological possibilities ("what we CAN do") rather than strategic business applications ("what we SHOULD do" for customer and business benefits). The field of Generative AI is evolving rapidly. Technologies once exclusive to big tech companies a year ago are now accessible to many organizations. Today, not only fine-tuning but also pre-training of these AI models is feasible. We can rigorously evaluate everything from nuanced business-impact metrics to stringent AI safety, compliance, and ethical considerations. Moreover, it's now possible to develop goal-oriented conversational systems that are effective in dialogue yet focused on executing specific objectives—something that was challenging until recently. This evolution from (technology ) CAN to (business and product) SHOULD signifies a pivotal shift. As leaders, gaining a deep understanding of these capabilities will enable you to better align technology with your business needs and strategic objectives. It's crucial to understand what Generative AI is CAPABLE of so that you can leverage your business and product expertise to determine how it SHOULD best serve your business and your customers. Join us to master how technological capabilities can be transformed into strategic business advantages. This understanding is vital for leading in a technology-driven marketplace.

Tomorrow we are livestreaming the last for the year Applied AI Lunch Talks at DTU Skylab. Come to the auditorium or follow online the latest trends and insights regarding AI.

🇺🇲 This week in San Francisco, I presented to 50+ high-profile investors, built 80% of the code that won an AI hackathon and presented at the AI conference, visited 5 AI events, and had several meetings with prospects! I love my life, having so much fun and learning so much (both technically and business-wise). I could write a long post, but here’s the TL;DR. Interested in working together with Generative AI Strategy? Send me a message, and we’ll get things rolling! Back to business, another 5 strategy sessions next week.

It's time for AI4LAM summer break! ☀️ 🏖️ What are we recommending from the area of AI and data science? The popularization of generative AI since November 2022 has us sticking to material from after that time. While we are breaking for July and August, check out some of the picks from the AI4LAM community! https://lnkd.in/dWu7aPUP

Hello WMCPA attendees! I'm excited to announce my first ever session, tomorrow morning from 8:30 AM - 9:45 AM at Courtyard 1. I'll be providing a thorough overview of the fundamentals of AI, as well as a review of numerous tools and their functions. For those that can't make it, and everyone else, check out the presentation deck in the attachment here 😊

Guess what our first MicroSaaS project is, and get 50% off to try it out! 🤔 For the past week, our team at VoxGenie AI has been in full-on hackathon mode. We've been pushing the boundaries of what's possible with Voice AI, going beyond just making and receiving calls. The result? A game-changing solution, built on VoxEngine, is about to revolutionize one use case. And here's the exciting part - we're giving a 50% discount to anyone who can correctly guess what we're building! Take a look at this sneak peek from our call. See anything interesting? Drop your guesses in the comments or slide them into my DMs. Who knows, you might just score an amazing deal on the future of voice AI! P.S. Launch is next week. Are you ready?

Just flying back to LHR after running an AI hackathon using GPT4o in Düsseldorf (lovely city, great choice of sausages) The conclusion: it’s all about the data 25 years in consulting, working with myriad businesses large and small across different industries and continents to create novel insights and innovative strategies The conclusion: it’s all about the data A lifetime of making calculators work properly The conclusion: it’s all about the data

How do you build a fully functioning MVP for a complex real-world problem in only three days? 🤔 🎯 That was the ambitious goal for the first internal hackathon. Five self-organizing teams collaborated and competed at the same time, each focusing on a different component of the system. 💡 The solution was truly amazing. A mix of down-to-earth processes and creative state-of-the art methods such as GenAI resulted in a solid framework with inspiring features. A big shout-out to all the employees who contributed to this! 🏆 The prize? First of all it was a great team-building experience with a lot of fun and a lot of learnings for everyone. The winning team received a very special prize in addition: They will be invited to this year’s “The AI Conference” in San Francisco, with all expenses covered. 👉 We’ll have more insights to share soon. #Teamwork #DataScience #AI

I am grateful to NEDs in FS for the privilege to chair this panel discussion. As #AI rapidly advances, financial services boards face critical decisions that extend beyond traditional predictive analytics to generative AI, introducing challenges around intellectual property, transparency, evolving regulation and cybersecurity. Key considerations for #NEDs include: - Stewardship: With rapid AI adoption in the consumer and business spheres, #boards are relied upon for guidance to manage the risks and exploit the opportunities of AI. - AI value chain: Shaping a strategy that leverages both, in-house AI development and external solutions depending on the capabilities and strategic direction of the organisation. - Data: Building the foundations in data governance to support the organisation’s AI strategy. - Ethics: Ensuring AI practices align with ethical standards, especially as AI integrates into decision-making. - Humility: Fostering a culture where executives and non-executives interact without fear and are encouraged to continuously learn and stay informed on AI advancements. - Compliance: Proactively preparing for evolving regulations in this space. By prioritizing these areas, boards can guide organizations to leverage AI’s potential while managing risks effectively in a fast-evolving landscape. My wonderful panelists provided plenty of practical insights and good practices: Alla Bashenko Carlos Pereira (he/him), FIP Susanne Chishti Thank you to Ben Blackett-Ord for bringing us together and Josh Emerson for sharing his notes with me.
