What did the recent AI Summit reveal about the state of AI, including the energy problem? 

  

The recent AI Summit in Paris raised key issues about AI regulation—and saw the US and UK refuse to sign on to the declaration.  

 

Generative AI is becoming autonomous—not only performing assigned tasks but figuring out how best to achieve goals. How likely is a “Terminator” scenario, and how should the world address important issues such as energy use, regulation, and deepfakes? 

  

Join Steve Odland and guest Ivan Pollard, Center Leader for Marketing & Communications at The Conference Board, to learn the difference between generative AI and autonomous AI, the potential dangers of unchecked AI, and why the US and UK refused to sign on to the recent Paris declaration.
