Why does artificial intelligence need regulating?
In March 2024, the European Union approved the world’s first set of major regulatory rules to govern artificial intelligence. The EU AI Act categorizes technologies by risk – low, medium, high, and "unacceptable." Those deemed the most dangerous can, in Europe, be shut down entirely.
It was a huge change in the tech world, but many may wonder why it was needed. Forms of AI have been used for decades, so aren't existing laws enough? And how does generative AI differ from traditional AI?
Mike Wade says it comes down to power. Generative AI is worlds apart from its predecessors. The technology could cause disaster in the wrong hands, and, like nuclear energy, it needs regulation. But enforcement of AI rules is tricky. Amit Joshi thinks the explainability of AI, or lack thereof, poses a challenge to regulators.
In this latest episode of Mike & Amit Talk Tech, the two IMD professors discuss these problems in the context of the shifting landscape of AI law.

Sora and Gemini: Innovations in AI
The 21st century has been dominated by video. At its start, camcorders allowed amateurs to make their own home movies, and by 2023, the likes of TikTok had become ubiquitous. Phones and social media platforms made shooting and editing child play.
But 2024 is seeing another change, one that may shake the very foundation of video itself.
Sora, from Open AI, is an Artificial Intelligence construct that can produce film with only a text prompt. Soon, being on the spot with a camera or a phone, may be totally unnecessary for those seeking to create photorealistic movies. Like ChatGPT before it, Sora may be about to change the world as we know it.
In the latest episode of Mike & Amit Talk Tech, the IMD professors discuss the latest innovations presented by Open AI in 2024.

Generative AI: What comes next?
The world has become familiar with artificial intelligence that can answer questions, often in a convincingly human manner. But so far, the technology has been limited by some key constraints. The first is that humans are still required to come up with the initial inputs, or 'prompts', to start conversations or processes. A second is that the relationship is bi-directional, interactions generally happen between a single human and an AI program.
But that may soon change.
In the not-too-distant future Amit and Mike expect seismic shifts in how generative AI will operate. Rather than working as a sounding board for our ideas, AI may well adapt to originate them, and perhaps even move into management itself. Could 2024 bring the advent of AI-powered digital coaches, a boss AI, or even a MomGPT?
In the sixth and final episode of this IMD miniseries on Generative AI, Mike and Amit discuss the future of this fast-growing sector and the possible limits on technological progress.
