EE Times and Silicon Catalyst Webinar - Navigating the AI Wonderland
“Humanity is at a turning point with AI”
So said Geoffrey Hinton, widely considered the godfather of AI, speaking in a recent episode of 60 Minutes. While our industry is focused on developing and delivering AI innovations to transform our lives and businesses, Hinton and others fear the “darkside” of AI.
2023 Silicon Catalyst Fall Forum - Welcome to Our AI Wonderland
Thanks to the author Lewis Carroll, the phrase “wonderland” has been defined as a place that elicits admiration and wonder, to create a place of magical charm. But as we’ve seen and experienced in 2023, in the context of AI, it takes on a more relevant meaning as a place of great opportunity and potentially serious concerns - that generative AI might pose a “civilizational risk”, as recently reported to have been stated in US Congressional hearings by a well known high-tech executive.
Silicon Catalyst Thought Leadership Series - From AR/VR to Metaverse
“From AR/VR to Metaverse”
The latest McKinsey research shows that the metaverse has the potential to generate up to $5 trillion in value by 2030. It's an opportunity too big to ignore. [source]
The Metaverse may be the next “Big Thing” of the information age. It has sparked controversies and a bucketload of questions, amongst them: what exactly is the Metaverse; what are its components; how do Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality play into it; what are the potential applications; who will drive its adoption and how will it impact business and social lives?
