AI Boom or Bust: Deciphering the Future of Artificial Intelligence

The world is experiencing an "explosion in AI capabilities", driven by "significant AI investments" from major tech companies such as Apple, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta, and characterised by "exponential growth in model size". But amidst this rapid advancement and "AI Hype", is society truly heading for a "Boom or Bust" scenario?

This essential webinar will cut through the noise to explore the critical questions surrounding AI's trajectory. We will delve into whether "FOMO is driving the investments" and the challenges of accurately estimating the "economic value associated with AI systems" or "unlocking the 'business data'". Our discussion will address the obstacles to "Moving Beyond Experimentation", including the integration hurdles posed by "legacy systems," "data quality issues," and "technical constraints".

Crucially, we will critically examine the "Boom" side by navigating the "AI Gold Rush" responsibly and understanding its profound "ethical implications". The session will spotlight "clear examples of unethical practice," such as the "misuse of Personal Information," "Data Breaches & Cover-Ups," "Bias in AI Systems" (where AI can perpetuate biases present in its training data), "Surveillance & Privacy Violations," "Intellectual Property Theft," "Job Displacement Without Support," "Lack of Transparency," and "Worker Exploitation".

We'll also address major lawsuits concerning "copyright infringement claims" over AI training data and "AI-generated outputs," and the "Key Issues Being Debated" regarding intellectual property law. Furthermore, we will touch upon "The Environmental Cost of AI". Yet, the "opportunity" for "Increasing the certainty of Digital Projects with Responsible Computing" is immense, promising "sustainability integration," "circular economy and efficiency," "ethical and inclusive technology," and "innovation and competitive advantage".

We will also look ahead, "Preparing for the Next Wave" in General Purpose AI, Quantum Computing, and Security. Join us for a dynamic discussion to "bridge the Technology Gap" and gain a clearer, more balanced perspective on whether AI represents a transformative "boom" for societal good or a potential "bust" fraught with ethical and practical challenges.

This webinar is a must-attend for anyone seeking to understand AI's true impact and confidently navigate its complex future.
