Abstract

Daniel provides a radically new framework for how people should think about AI (especially Generative AI), with entertaining examples and anecdotes. He discusses how organisations can practically adopt these technologies and avoid being seduced by the hype. He argues that whilst these technologies are incredible at creating growth and streamlining operations, for companies to stay innovative they need to also use AI to unlock the creative capacity of their workforce. Daniel will also cover the macro impact these technologies may have over the coming decades, and suggests that it’s within the gift of enterprise to make a better future for everyone.
