Bill Tanenbaum and Suneil Thomas, Managing Counsel at Google Cloud AI, discuss the evolution of AI from Machine Learning (a type of Non-Generative AI) and Siri and Alexa to today’s Generative AI, and offer predictions about the next evolutionary step in Generative AI. Suneil discusses transformer models and other technology behind Generative AI offerings like LLMs. He addresses the perspective of companies as customers of cloud AI technology, what “adaptive layers” and “APIs” are, how customers will use them to customize Generative AI in the next evolutionary step, and the role of regulations in that customer use. Bill and Suneil also discuss some current business uses of Generative AI. PLI is proud to keep you ever current with timely programs, publications, and podcasts.
