Welcome to our episode on the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence. We start with an exciting announcement from Misericordia University, which has launched a new Bachelor’s Degree Program in Artificial Intelligence. This move reflects the growing demand for AI professionals and the need for comprehensive education in this field.
That's right. The National Catholic Register recently published an article highlighting that artificial intelligence isn’t what most people think it is. It’s not just about robots and machines, but about creating intelligent systems that can enhance our lives and workplaces.
This brings us to our next topic. Apptio's Field CTO for EMEA, Greg Holmes, argues that scaling intelligent automation requires financial rigour. The traditional 'build it and they will come' model often leaves a hole in the budget when applied to automation. It's crucial for executives to understand the financial implications of AI adoption.
Absolutely. As we move forward, it's essential to consider the financial and societal implications of AI. With the right approach, AI can bring about significant benefits, from improving productivity to enhancing decision-making. But we must also address the challenges and ensure that AI development is aligned with human values.
Our key takeaway is that AI is not just a technological phenomenon, but a multifaceted field that requires careful consideration of its social, economic, and ethical implications. As we continue to navigate this evolving landscape, it's crucial to stay informed and engaged in the conversation about AI's future.
