Tech Whispers, the UnPodcast by Jaspreet Bindra Jaspreet Bindra

If you have been to Dubai, you cannot miss the impressive and very beautiful building that houses The Museum of the Future. In May this year, it will host a truly innovative event -The Global Prompt Engineering Championship!

Held in the Generative AI categories of Art, Music, and Coding, this, to me, perfectly symbolises the innovation and serious intent UAE is bringing to the AI game.

The UAE has an impressive 2031 Vision Document, world-class open source LLMs like Falcon and Jais, the Mohamed bin Zayed University for Artificial Intelligence, and now this! I exepct the UAE to be one of the Top 5 countries in AI, driven by such initiatives.

Earlier this week, I spoke with (radio channel) on this Championship and all the other strides that the UAE is taking in AI. Give it a listen

I was recently awarded the Talent Golden Residency of the UAE and intend to be there much often, to be right in the thick of its AI action!

A couple of days back a friend sent me this amazing article (https://medium.com/@profgalloway/corporate-ozempic-da829480c878) by Prof Scott Galloway, a favourite of mine, called Corporate Ozempic. An article you must read, it talks about how corporates are using AI as the weight-reduction drug Ozempic, to shed people and fat.



Even as I was digesting this article came the announcement from Apple, that they are shedding their Apple Car project and reinvesting the money and resources in AI! And finally, came a shocker of an announcement from Klarna, as to how they have managed to rollout a OpenAI based GenAI Assistant which does the work of 700 humans, and does it better. Frankly, I still have to digest this last piece of news.



But, I definitely have a view on this phenomena, which I share in the video. Love to hear your feedback!

The AI and Generative AI tidal wave seems to be submerging many industries and lapping at the shores of many more. A recent Accenture report singled out Banking as the industry with the highest potential for automation using AI. Other reports are saying something similar.

Banking and Financial services seems to be one of the first big battlefronts of man vs. machine; I sit down with Sanat Rao to dissect this. Sanat is the Global CEO of CEO of Infosys Finacle, the leading core banking platform, and therefore watches banking across the world closely. He is also my co-student at the Masters in AI, Ethics, Society at Cambridge University, and a Masters in Digital Anthropology from University College, London.

3 months after it was born, people have started asking whether #ChatGPT should even exist? Are we humans playing God?I weigh into this argument , so do Stephen Fry and Yuval Noah Harari.

Moravec’s Paradox states that it is easy to train computers and AI to do things that humans find hard, like mathematics, creativity and coding, but it is hard to train them to do things even babies could do, like walking and image recognition. Thus, paradoxically, the initial and highest impact of ChatGPT and Generative AI was felt by media, entertainment and creative industries.

In Chapter 3 of the #GenerativeAICommunity conversations, with the awesome Praveen Someshwar, MD and CEO of HT Media Ltd – we will unpack the impact of this revolutionary technology on media, entertainment and leadership.

In Judo you win the fight by using your opponent’s weight and strength as weapons against himself, emphasizing that that good technique and strategy can defeat sheer strength. Satya Nadella, Microsoft CEO, is playing judo with #chatgpt.
