AI: Demystifying the hype, realising the potential

Description

Hardly a day goes by where the INSY inbox is not flooded with pitches for ‘revolutionary’ artificial intelligence tools claiming to offer a step change in the way we work.

With hype around the technology reaching near hysteric proportions, it’s time to cut through the noise and get a better grasp on some of the key questions:

• What is AI?

• How can an organisation use it to innovate?

• What are its ethical and sustainability implications?

In a time of unprecedented and rapid change, we understand such questions come with few easy answers. That’s why we’ll be welcoming regional AI experts who will share their insights from the vanguard of this new frontier. We’ll also have three breakout rooms exploring the basics of AI, its potential applications for organisations, and practical, ethical and sustainability considerations.

Whether the mention of a large language model (LLM) conjures up images of an exceptionally tall person modelling the latest Collins dictionary, or you’ve experimented with ChatGPT and the like but are not sure how to take the next step, we’ve got you covered.

We’ll look forward to welcoming you for more food for thought and plenty of networking at the University of Sheffield’s INOX Dine on Wednesday 30 April from 9 – 11.30am.
