Nominations for Awards 2024- CMCE
RSS feeds WordPress
July 25, 2024
I am flattered by the nomination for the CNCE Awards 2024 considering the initial skepticism towards artificial intelligence that existed. Articles chosen underline required changes for consultants. “Embrace AI in Strategic Management” outlines the use of analytics to make decisions as well as develop. “The Death of Management Consulting” on the other hand posits that business models need to be redefined with power given back to customers while at the same time coming up with new competitive strategies. These insights show why consultants need to offer something different from any other profession and show customers how they can always be ahead of their time through reinvention using emerging technologies.

Synthetic Data report: Fueling AI Progress While Navigating Privacy and Regulatory Landscapes

April 15, 2024
This analysis shows a rapid and steady market growth prediction for synthetic data.Synthetic data is made up information created by computers to look like real data. It's used when real data is hard to get or could invade people's privacy. This data helps train artificial intelligence safely without risking sensitive information. Studies predict more AI data will be synthetic in the future. Synthetic data is cheaper and faster to produce than collecting real data, and it avoids privacy risks. However, it might not always accurately reflect real-life situations. There's also a need to update laws and privacy rules to handle synthetic data properly

Work Too Hard, Burn Too Fast: When Overwork Culture Meets New Workplace Tech
RSS feeds WordPress
February 07, 2024
Many workplaces now demand constant work with no rest. This “always on” culture is unhealthy and hurts performance. Researcher Malissa Clark closely studies work addiction harms in her book Never Not Working. She shows overwork ruins health while not even helping companies long-term.
At the same time, workplace AI promises big gains through automation. But toxic overwork culture clashes with adopting AI. Lacking balance and rest, staff burn out. They cannot gain new tech skills or lead AI humanely.
Companies that want AI success while allowing overwork, are going to cause their own failure. They drain worker health essential for AI guidance. With compassion and limits, people can thrive along with smart algorithms. Visionary bosses must rebuild culture for a bright future.
The Long Road from AI Hype to Reality
RSS feeds WordPress
January 31, 2024
AI promises to keep outpacing reality. Leaders must balance hopes and hype with slow, careful progress. People need time to learn alongside technology. Sudden change risks failure.
Step-by-step training lets regular workers get comfortable with AI. Small successes build trust and skill.
Responsible leaders focus first on growing capability, not just rushing new tech. AI can positively transform business over time without the crash-and-burn hype cycles of the past.
But sustainable change comes through enabling people, not just systems. Progress matters more than predictions.
Stakeholder-Centric AI Strategies-Prioritising Needs and Concerns ( no one left behind)
RSS feeds WordPress
January 28, 2024
Companies today are rapidly developing artificial intelligence systems that impact people's lives in many ways. That's why it's crucial we put the needs of all stakeholders—like employees, customers and communities—at the centre when creating AI. By listening openly to diverse groups, companies can better understand how their AI tools might frustrate or confuse certain users. This allows them to customise the technology to align with human requirements. Continuous engagement enables catching issues early so AI can keep enhancing real experiences. When companies collaborate inclusively with stakeholders for input, they make more responsible innovations that aim to serve people rather than replace them. This co-creation helps ensure AI decisions are fair and benefit society broadly over time. The key is focusing first on those impacted by AI to drive better outcomes for all.
A prize for the new HM generative AI Guidelines for the Public Sector: a timely output beyond the public services?
RSS feeds WordPress
January 23, 2024
The uK Government gave very useful tips on starting to use AI properly. AI is advancing fast. Following these expert tips carefully but actively can make the public sector modern and caring. Most of all, thoughtful AI tools can make every citizen's time dealing with the government much easier and hassle-free. Smart chatbots that understand you can help fill out complicated forms. This makes getting assistance simple for all people instead of just those who can handle complex rules. But big challenges around safety, skills and responsible development are important to overcome. Many people rightly still worry about privacy risks or losing human accountability if AI is unchecked. That's why this expert guide is so valuable now. It guides government capacities step-by-step to thoughtfully create public sector AI projects focused on ethics, care, and human monitoring from the beginning.
Learning from the Past (Digital Adoption) for the AI Future
RSS feeds WordPress
January 04, 2024
Over the last ten years, adding digital stuff to companies showed important lessons around technology, organisations, culture, and responsible innovation. Now, AI promises big advances, but turning ideas into real solutions faces familiar obstacles that have tripped up past efforts.
Looking at digital history gives an AI roadmap to adopt responsibly. There were overlooked real-world challenges to solve first. AI risks similar issues if focused too much on stats. The key is shifting ideas into solutions that solve actual business problems and help people. Things like training staff, checking data bias, and monitoring impacts matter. If people are informed and involved, AI can progress responsibly. But assuming systems will smoothly integrate risks repeating past mistakes that failed. Keeping humans central just makes common sense.
The business case for AI and Automation? Realising the Full Potential and Tangible Value of Staff Liberated by Automation
RSS feeds WordPress
January 02, 2024
Companies want to use automation to free up employee time for more important work.
But to really make this happen, leaders need a plan.
They should figure out how to use the new free time across departments - like sales learning about customers more or better finance saving costs.
Then, if possible, set goals to achieve hard money targets, like specific amounts of new revenue.
Tackle problems early that would slow success. Also, use AI's help while still counting on people to lead creatively. Getting real about the money automation frees up to earn elsewhere matters.
With a careful blueprint in place at every step, leaders can fully benefit as staff focus on the smartest responsibilities automation now allows.
Progress Over AI Pace: Agility’s Guiding Hand
RSS feeds WordPress
December 31, 2023
New tech like AI brings tons of change quick. Companies need flexibility to keep up. Being agile means trying stuff out, working cross-functionally, and making constant small improvements. It keeps people front and centre as tech progresses. Some organisations handled COVID disruption well by being targetedly agile in key areas. For AI specifically, agility helps implement tools responsibly and adapt them to actual human needs. It guides swift AI progress through an ethical lens. Rather than let AI overwhelm us, agility makes it serve us. So, I'd say agility is critical for rolling out AI in a human-friendly way.
What do you think - is agility crucial for AI adoption?

The US is taking steps to regulate AI for safety, security, and fairness.
An "AI Bill of Rights" outlines protections against AI harms. President Biden's Executive Order establishes new AI safety standards and requires data sharing. States also impact local AI uses. Studies show business trust in AI is high but uneven - AI leader executives have more trust. Building trust requires a strategic focus on pillars like transparency. More research on a common framework for trust in AI is needed to guide business uses. Overall, US businesses do trust AI, but ensuring ethical, fair AI will further increase it.
UK law about AI is innovation-oriented, but what about trust from businesses?
RSS feeds WordPress
December 27, 2023
The UK has published guidelines for responsible AI use to build trust while encouraging innovation. Strategies include transparency in how systems work so people can understand them. Existing regulators oversee AI instead of new bodies. Current laws apply until dedicated AI rules come.
The approach aims to grow the AI industry confidently. However, complex, overlapping regulations could challenge businesses adopting AI. There are also questions around balancing economic gains versus rising inequality from AI, and managing this complex, fast-changing technology. More debate is expected to shape protective, progressive AI rules.

The AI Act: Do the risk groups make sense to increase trust?
RSS feeds WordPress
December 23, 2023
The EU's AI Act aims to build social trust in artificial intelligence. Business executives have worried about losing oversight of complex AI systems. The Act addresses this by requiring human monitoring of high-risk AI and external audits. Managers get clearly defined duties around documenting and testing AI changes to validate internal governance. Employees gain protection against excessive tracking and job loss while allowing innovation. The Act signals consensus on ethical AI development by anchoring rules in EU values of accountability and transparency. Though still untested, its focus on responsible design sends a message that AI can be trusted if guided by the right principles.

Providing Value Beyond Hard Skills

November 20, 2023
I have reflected on how human connections are crucial in consultancy today more than ever.
When starting projects with new clients, focus first on making real human connections by actively listening, showing empathy, and understanding their unique culture. Rather than taking a one-approach-fits-all method, adapt to each client's specific priorities and expectations to build trust.
Show you care about them as people, not just your skills, to gain trust. Regularly check in to re-align goals as things change while balancing hard metrics with talks about human impact.
Consulting is ultimately about developing rapport and seeing clients as human beings, with technical skills being just the foundation.

Why are use cases crucial for AI implementation? Well-planned use cases are key to ensuring AI delivers real value. They map solutions to specific business goals, enhancing workflows and customer experiences. Iterating use cases also sparks innovation - solving nagging problems and revealing new opportunities. Most importantly, robust use cases build stakeholder trust that AI is applied ethically, driving adoption. Rather than chasing tech trends, AI success depends on targeted, accountable use case planning upfront. This disciplined approach makes AI’s benefits concrete, not speculative, setting up lasting wins. Pragmatic use cases transform AI from hype into sound strategy, yielding better human decisions. #genai #usecases #aistrategy #aiinnovation

The EU recently created the first laws to regulate artificial intelligence (AI). The rules establish human oversight and data quality standards for high-risk AI. The laws are a flexible framework countries can build on with industry-specific regulations. Some believe companies should self-regulate AI.

Governments must create tailored AI laws across industries and coordinate globally. Thoughtful regulation allows safe AI innovation with humanity’s interests at the centre.

Trust in AI is very important but must be balanced. Too little trust can cause fear of AI and limit the use of it. However, too much trust can lead to just following AI without thinking critically. Companies should build responsible trust by testing AI to be sure it works and is transparent. Leaders should encourage questioning AI and overseeing it ethically. Making changes like reviews and risk monitoring can also increase trust. With the right amount of trust, employees, managers, and executives can feel confident to adopt AI and innovate while minimising risks. Trust is crucial for getting the benefits of AI while being responsible.

HR is not just about people operations anymore- it is the center of business transformation. Although at this point we are entering the phase of consolidation, that is AI tools ranging from automation, cognitive assistants need to interoperate as an ecosystem. By making this step, HR avoids the fragmentation that weakens governance and lends more readiness for the next leap toward full HR strategic orchestration . This article will provide a clear navigation map for how new AI projects can be adopted that truly drive value.
We think so little about the browser ( until it starts thinking alongside us).
Artificial intelligence is expanding the realm of possibilities for the browser and transforming it from a search box into a space of choice.

2026 kicks off with more AI predictions, what will be the real test is weeding out what’s working from what’s hype. Agentic AI and AI-native infrastructure are transitioning beyond pilot projects into enterprise deployments.

Strategy is about what scales, what one can work with, not following every trend. The good question is: what is true for my business to persue now?

A new Superhero? AI architect
wordpress feeds
October 08, 2025
The image is amusing because it’s true: the AI Architect position wear the strategist, consultant, designer and adviser hat all in one. But according to research, clustering jobs like that is dirty, unstable and dangerous.
The answer is not to give up on the notion of AI architectures, but to develop them in a different way. Organizations should view the AI Architect not so much as a one-person superhero hire, and more as team-based role that links their strategy, technology architecture and governance together.
Failing that, the AI Architect will continue to be what it is now: a position that does everything and achieves nothing, all the while secretly needing four people in one seat.

Back in the “good old days,” success at work or school was often measured by how much information you could retain. Encyclopaedic knowledge, rattling off formulas, technical jargon, or every feature of a tool, was the gold standard. The more you knew, the more valuable you were.

MIT has researched the reason why AI pilots ( 95%) are not transforming in implementation and continuity(5%). Among root causes analysed there are two alternatives: BUY or BUILD AI INTERNALLY.
We are happy to propose hashtag#aistrategies which keep a balance between the two, and cover or reduce the hashtag#buyingaicons.
Looking at your first analysis of strategic approaches with your executives, seniors and AI dedicate resources!!!
My recent direct experience as customer with two Vendors which use Agentic AI for the function of support, had trigged the will to discipline how to choose partner, what companies using hashtag#procurementai skills and mindset need to consider in the evaluation of solutions. In my case the support functionality has been delegated to AI; but i still can't resolve two queries because.... it looks like that Humans are not available......
#procurementAI; #agenticaiprocurement #agenticaiselection
Global IT spending is expected to exceed $5.4 trillion in 2025, fuelled in part by AI. But a recent study from MIT says 95 percent of generative AI projects fail to deliver measurable business results. This leads to an important question for executives: when is paying more for AI intelligent investment, and when is it an expensive error?
The response is to learn from the lessons of procurement discipline. A premium supplier price can be justified in procurement only if proven quality and product output, clear differentiation, a long-term contribution and minimizing risk is being achieved. The same test should apply to AI contracts.
Real-world failures demonstrate what happens when organisations spend a premium without these checks and balances.
Before signing your next AI deal, ask yourself four simple questions: reliability, differentiation, long-term value, and compliance. It’s not that paying a premium is the issue. Paying the wrong premium is.
How does your company determine whether an AI contract is worth the cost?

July 15, 2025
In the rapidly evolving digital economy, customer and employee experiences are at the core of business success. At a time when businesses are increasingly 'stuck' between the need to cut costs and the obligation to provide more tailored and effective services to their customers, AI is a crucial facilitator. This paper presents the Experience Orchestration Maturity Model: a pragmatic model to help organisations get from manual processes to cognitive, goal-directed AI. Furnished with a clear roadmap, it can help leaders understand their current position and develop and advance strategically. It is beneficial for AI-driven experience strategies in contact centres, operations, and cross-functional service models.

Enterprise tech buyers in 2025 are shifting toward shorter planning horizons, reflecting caution amid global uncertainty. While interest in agentic AI is high, real adoption lags due to governance gaps, integration hurdles, and a shortage of practical skills. Reports from Constellation Research and PwC confirm AI boosts productivity and pay—especially in digital-heavy sectors—but highlight a growing divide between well-resourced firms and others. Vertical AI use-cases show promise, yet many organisations lack readiness. Success now depends on deeper integration, stronger governance, and aligning people strategies with real-world AI deployment challenges.

If we must succeed sustainably, then excluding elements such as the role played by middle-level managers in sector-wide training programs and policies governing the use of AI will be difficult.

Generative AI makes companies agile and resilient; instead of reacting to only those problems that have already struck, AI has the ability to predict areas that could give them issues. Therefore, this would be how organisations could solve the challenges even before they had started. This agility makes them fast-changing entities for adapting to situations of risk management, with fine-tuning their strategies along the way to make them competitive. AI also allows scenario planning, enabling organisations to strategize various options and make intelligent decisions for each in advance. Consequently, AI reduces downtime, smoothest out operations, and prioritises what could have been setbacks as opportunities for growth and resilience.

In the research, the possibility of a bubble in AI is discussed, with reference to the three different contexts, namely: in US, UK and Europe.
According to it, the US seems to be more susceptible to such a case because of the high level of speculative investment, monopolization in the market as well as less stringent regulations. Conversely, the UK and Europe have chosen to be more prudent while adopting AI for practical purposes in sectors such as healthcare, finance and manufacturing.
This confirms that both these regions are safer when it comes to AI bubbles than America since they:
- Showcase varied AI markets
- Concentrate efforts on B2B artificial intelligence products
- Are more cautious due to stronger monitoring framework
It is these features that make progress of European and British industries based on AI more viable and less speculative than what has been happening in America at any given time.

Consequently, the gender sensitivity within the development stages has appeared as one of the areas where such developments would be used as tools in promotion[2].Gender biased algorithms used by artificial intelligence lead to injustice against individual people and lose making possibilities due to the absence of viable options from competition as well as stagnant business productivity due to lack of trust among other companies.

Unlearning the Past and Upskilling the Future: Consultants' Readiness to Embrace New Technologies” Luca Collina- Marianna Papastefanou
RSS feeds WordPress
November 10, 2023
I am glad to share this new research, "Unlearning the Past and Upskilling the Future: Consultants' Readiness to Embrace New Technologies” Luca Collina- Marianna Papastefanou " that is of interest to those professionals and expert consultants considering the current or future use of AI, Generative AI: and Automation.
The research aims are based on the fact new innovative technology can request to totally or partially "unlearn" previous knowledge to make space for the new one by exploiting and using AI.
How is the concept of unlearning considered?
Ability to distinguish and accept old knowledge and explore new knowledge
Unlearning: Mental models- Outdated assumptions; Perspectives not balanced with the past
Consultants biases about resistance or use of AI

New Quote for my New Columnist's role with The Financial Business Review
RSS feeds WordPress
September 05, 2024
This quote can represent the transition from the GARTNER HYPE CURVE when we have left "the hype" level and are now in the Trough of Disillusionment.
Briefly, this phase normally manifests from users, in this case Companies, Users of the first phase of Hype ( excitement interest, investments, speculations) when the exaggerated expectations are disappointed by
low quality
low reliability
of solutions, both from AI core producers, start-ups with their tools and solutions core-products based.
In addition, there are still so many open issues which are not fixed by regulations or laws ( ethics, Privacy, deep-fakes, and this is not an exhaustive list, but I hope it can give an idea.).
For some generations, which have lived the period of the dot.com hype and consequent Bust Bubble
Baby Boomers - born around 1946-1964- during the bursting of the dot com bubble, a large number of them were already at their top positions as managers or in other senior level positions of the IT industry or finance or any other sector affected by the bubble’s effect.
2. Generation X—born between 1965 and 1980—During the dot-com bubble, they were mostly in their 20s until they were 35 years old. Many of them were either launching careers or working at this point and consequently had practical knowledge concerning the rise and fall of tech companies.
3. Older Millennials- born between 1981 and 1986- Some older millennials might have been teenagers or young adults during the dot-com crash, mainly if they were interested in technology since the trends used to exist at that time or had relatives directly affected by the stock market crash.
These generations ( I belong to baby boomers btw) are living this period not with caution but with fear and anxiety, something that doesn't help to examine investigate analyse and evaluate both opportunities, risks but mainly to postpone any of informed decision about the AI adoption to bring benefits to their Companies and employees.
My active role is to bring more elements with publishing in Academic - Busine/academic journals to support with factual evidence what AI can or can't do.
After the hype, it's time to get back to business—with AI along the way.

According to GARTNER Hype life-cycle, GEN-AI is now in the Trough of Disillusionment. Now there are challenges for different companies status, of which two of them have the opportunity to clarify technology and those that continue with experimentation towards AI activation.
For both types is the best moment to shape and deepen AI Literacy ( Education and practice). ging back to business is how experimentation, clarity are closer to both day to day operations and strategic endeavours.

August 02, 2024
The concept of Preparedness- both personal and group readiness with time taken into consideration combined with potential outcomes from a realistic point of view, are vital ingredients towards achieving success. Whether looked at from the perspective of philosophy or religion, the core idea remains the same: preparedness in combination with timeliness and patience enables us wait for a point when each and everything falls in its place. my grandma and my Mum became frustrated in repeating it for years.
Do preparation and readiness ring a bell about AI adoption?

I have been, in a sense, a seeker on the path of finding new ways to solve problems, and it has taken me to the world of academia, where I have publications in prominent journals with other scholars on topics ranging from ethics and corporate social responsibility to AI and Leadership.
The last papers have shared lessons from dot-com and electric vehicle hypes to ensure executives and senior managers do not commit similar failures within the AI ecosystem.
My next big step includes AIBI AI and Business, an upcoming online interactive course that I will be following to share the validated models, frameworks, and advice . This course represents the next step in my journey, where the knowledge and experiences gained are actionable for executives and practitioners.
"AI WAITS FOR NO HUMANS"
RSS feeds WordPress
April 07, 2024
AI is growing super fast—really, way faster than other tech ever did before. It keeps getting smarter at understanding data, working faster, and making complex decisions, all by itself. Unlike the old tech, AI doesn't wait for us to catch up, but keeps pushing forward.
AI is intelligent in itself. It learns, adapts, and decides things without our being the one to tell it what to do. That means it will not stop for us just because it might be bringing another big thing that we are not ready for.
In other words, we are going to have to do some serious soul searching in regard to our relationship with AI. In fact, this area needs to be preempted in areas of business and especially health and medicine so that we can realize how to fit AI into our world.
Everybody, not just the techy people, has to stay tuned for AI. It will be essential to ensure that all of us are going to be on board, handling the changes and challenges coming from AI. In short, the watch for AI is going to form such a huge fraction of our life.

I have accepted with joy the opportunity to deliver a speech online on Wednesday, the 17 of January, at the GENERATIVe AI CONFERENCE with the presentation
"Human-Centric Approach to AI Adoption”
Artificial Intelligence promises immense opportunity. However, we must proactively guide its development to align with human values and priorities - to augment our talents equitably rather than replace them recklessly. Key principles like ethics, workforce empowerment, participative design, trust-building, and human-AI collaboration can allow us to adopt AI judiciously as a partner in progress, not a foe of the future..

June 03, 2024
* The regulations are implemented to reduce or minimise any AI-associated risks. Different jurisdictions, such as the EU, the US, and the UK, have regulations. Business organisations must have ways to predict and face these risks rather than wait for the regulations
*business leaders need to establish standards for good AI. Leaders should empathise with how AI operates and its impact, as well as with privacy, ethics, and other stakeholder considerations.
* Companies must remain alert about changing laws. They must collaborate with local legal professionals and establish global practices for ethical AI use. This will help them keep the business consistent and be trusted.
* it is up to business leaders to be involved, informed, and aware of reaping more from AI in ways that will ensure it gets applied correctly and fairly.

Fact-checkers to reduce misinformations with AI
Date : December 03, 2023
Digital misinformation has already affected several areas of human life. In addition to Governances, recognised facts in political elections, and referendums in the recent past, with further AI and ML development that can generate and modify pictures, videos, and texts and create fake news, AI fact-checkers, even with their challenges related to further development and tuning LLM and NLP to a wide number of evidence to be checked, can represent a valuable resource to fight misinformation, in areas like Politics, Academia, Medicine, Health Research, and Business ( Finance, Financial markets, products and services) through a parallel people responsibility to make ethical use of them to ripristinate the ethical value of information.
New approaches for strategy management with AI- the end or refreshing of classic tools?
Date : October 04, 2023
Most companies today still use traditional tools for making business strategies. But in the future, AI could start changing how strategy is done. AI may bring new capabilities that complement classic methods. For instance, AI can rapidly analyse customer data to detect shifts in demand. It can also quickly model different scenarios to foresee market changes. This could make planning faster and more data-driven. However, AI has limits, like lacking human judgment and creativity. So, pure AI-driven strategy may never fully replace human strategists. Rather, the optimal path forward could be combining AI strengths with human strengths. AI may become an enhancement for strategists, not a replacement. The future likely holds a hybrid model, with AI and classic tools working together in new approaches to strategy. However, widespread adoption is still gradual as companies test these uncharted waters. Strategy and Ai.
Smaller AI models cost less money to use. That saves companies money when they use these models. Companies can also adjust the smaller models to be good at certain jobs. So if a company needs an AI to do one specific thing, they can customize a smaller model just for that job. That makes the model work better. Lastly, with smaller models, companies can have tighter control over the data they put into the model. That's important so they make sure their data stays private and secure. Lots of companies want to protect customer data and business information. The smaller AI models help with that.
So the main reasons are: cheaper to use, can be customized to be great at certain tasks and helps protect important data.
The end of AI and ML "back box" with XAI- Explainable Artificial Intelligence
Date : October 04, 2023
ML and AI have been developed to optimise models by increasing accuracy or decreasing prediction error. However, this approach often overlooks the importance of understanding why and how your ML model makes the predictions that it does. Explainable AI (XAI) seeks to increase transparency within artificial intelligence systems by offering explanations of their decisions, thus increasing trustworthiness for individuals using these technologies and increasing human-align decision-making by showing how AI systems make choices and operate. Overall, this XAI initiative hopes to illuminate its "black box", creating more fair, accountable, and human-aligned systems through understandable actions and decisions made by AI systems.
Trust in AI-individuals about trust in AI, and what is expected from employees, managers, executives
Date : October 04, 2023
Right now, most regular people don't trust AI fully. Employees, managers and executives know trusting AI has risks. But some AI can be trusted for certain tasks if built right. More transparency on how AI works is needed to increase trust. With the right trust, AI adoption and new processes can thrive. However too much trust in unreliable AI can hurt accountability and let biases go unseen. The goal is balanced trust - enough to gain AI benefits but still verify its decisions. Increased trust can enable innovation, but blind trust in AI can damage workplace culture.
Consolidation of Management models' disruption towards new Management innovation models
Date : December 26, 2022
The world since Mintzberg has proposed a different model to Hierarchical/Bureaucratic Management model.
The last period related to both COVID and the supply chain disruption as a first cause of review Management model sand not only the organisational ones, will open a door to Management disruptive innovation towards flexibility adaptation, dynamics and people-centric approaches. The impact will be on
- Leadership ( already debated and discussed with an overwhelming theories and suggestions)
- Culture
- Human centric approach for change ( and from here Hybrid-Change models)
- Effective practices of Business strategies and growth
- Different approach to Digital Transformation.
What is still missed is the description of the transactional period which need to safeguard business as usual ( BAU) but being utilised as scapegoat for failures by current management systems and models,
Embodied AI, or AI systems with physical form, will become more common beyond phones and computers. Though some will look human-like, many will likely have unique, engaging designs to make them more relatable and fun. As AI spreads to more parts of our lives through toys, home devices, and more, these creative physical forms will help people accept and bond with AI, despite its flaws. In time, friendly, helpful AI could become a regular part of our homes and daily routines.
Increasing the use of AI as an assistant companion
Date : February 02, 2024
More people will use AI to assist them with daily tasks and decisions. AI will help with research, data analysis, writing, and other jobs, acting as a tireless digital helper. Some may even delegate complex planning like vacations or ordering food to AI. As AI improves, it could take over annoying automated calls or even pre-screen dates. With many finding companionship in AI chatbots already, AI friends who conversate and provide company will likely become more advanced and widespread. In time, AI assistants, delegates, and companions could integrate deeply into how we work and live.
Overlooked or delayed because of LLMs race and development
Date : February 20, 2024
Small AI language models today are useful for many businesses to do specific tasks at a low cost. But these small models might struggle to keep up with huge, fast advances in bigger models that have broader abilities. So the risk is that the bigger AI models could start to do so many more and better things that businesses no longer need or want the smaller models. The small AI models may not be able to compete
