Greetings from Candlewood Lake. My Sunday essay, "," is about the prevailing misconception that platforms like ChatGPT have a near-magical ability to answer intricate business questions… but the devil is in the details. The true magic of generative AI emerges when businesses create systems that empower their workforces to "talk" directly to their own data.
This topic immediately surfaces several important questions: Can I secure my data? Does AI "learn" about my company? Are there copyright issues? Are we going to get sued? The list goes on.
All of these questions (and many more) need to be asked, but they are all answerable and – depending upon your risk tolerance – already have been. If you're wondering how to connect your 1st-party data to a chatbot (like ChatGPT), we'd welcome the opportunity to discuss it with you; simply respond to this email. -s [email protected]
P.S. It's time to start planning executive experiences for CES 2024 (January 9-12, 2024). We're offering on-site executive briefings and floor tours, as well as online briefings. .
