To GPT or Not to GPT: This is NOT the question
Description
The AI Field took a transformational turn with the creation of powerful Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) models. This disruptive technology has captured the attention allover the world at a very fast rate. For instance, ChatGPT reached 100 million users in two months. It is the fastest growing app. ever, with an impact of $7.9 trillion.
While traditional AI focus on detecting patterns, making decisions, and classifying data, Generative AI can produce various types of content; text, image, audio, video, and synthetic data with high quality in few seconds. Generative AI can be applied in various use cases to generate different kind of content, examples are:
• Smart design and manufacturing, e.g. chip design
• Marketing, creating demos (including videos and testimony)
• Creating chatbots and meaningful responses for customer services
• Creating music in any style and time period
• Creative writing; movies, novels, and plays
• Designing more entertaining games beyond what we know
• Improve security at all levels
• Developing new drugs in a cost-effective way
• Finance management
• Legal aspects management
• Creating accurate avatar of people
• Generating codes and software systems
But, current generative AI have some limitations and problems, such as:
• Providing inaccurate and misleading information. The source of information is not known most of the time.
• Facilitating plagiarism which can complicate creativity and education
• Making fake news that have negative impact politically and socially
• Taking business to the wrong direction; planning, marketing, and finance
• Producing information that biased and prejudiced
Generative AI is relatively new, it has stimulated and generated many questions among regular citizens and experts/developers as well. This is just the beginning, what is coming may be beyond imagination. Generative AI will impact all our life. In some cases, the applications may be clearly visible, but most of the times, they will be working in the background.
Our distinguished panelist will address some of these questions. Audience are strongly encouraged to interact with the panel through questions and comments.
