AI Risk Reward

I am your host, Alec Crawford, Founder and CEO of Artificial Intelligence Risk, Inc. and this is AI Risk-Reward, a podcast about balancing the risk and reward of using AI personally, professionally, and as a large organization! We will discuss hot topics such as, will AI take my job or make it better? When I ask Chat-GPT work questions, is that even safe? From an ethical perspective, is it enough for big companies to anonymize private data before using it? (Probably not.) I am discussing these issues with AI experts to answer burning questions and stay ahead of the curve on AI. I’d also like to give a shoutout to our podcast producer and audio engineering team at Troutman Street Audio. You can check them out on LinkedIn.

Our host, Alec Crawford, interviews Adrian Mendoza, the founder and general partner at Mendoza Ventures, who shares insights from his journey in venture capital, his experiences with AI, and the evolution of the tech economy. From Architecture to AI: Adrian recounts his path from architecture to venture capital, highlighting his time at Harvard and his early involvement at Walt Disney Imagineering. He talks about the dot-com boom, his experiences at HBS, and the cyclical nature of the tech economy. AI and Venture Capital: Adrian Mendoza emphasized the transformative impact of AI on the venture capital landscape. He highlighted Mendoza Ventures' strategic focus on investing in AI, fintech, and blockchain companies, noting that their first AI investment involved scraping data for corporate gifting and sales enablement. Mendoza Ventures leverages AI to analyze data, guide investment decisions, and create AI-driven content such as podcasts. Adrian underscored the importance of understanding data and its applications, and the potential of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, despite issues like data hallucination and the need for transparency and ethical considerations in AI deployment. AI Evolution: Significant emphasis is placed on the evolution of AI, the importance of data, and the role of large language models (LLMs) in current technology trends. Adrian also discusses the ethical considerations and regulatory aspects of AI, emphasizing transparency and the potential impacts of generative AI on data privacy. Data Privacy and AI: Adrian Mendoza discussed the significant issues surrounding data privacy and generative AI. There is a growing concern about how companies utilize personal data, especially with the advent of AI tools like ChatGPT. Adrian highlighted that people are unknowingly feeding sensitive data into these AI systems, which then learn from and potentially misuse this information. This lack of transparency and potential for data leaks raises serious ethical and regulatory concerns about AI usage. Regulation of AI: Adrian compared the regulation of AI to the past failures of regulating social media, suggesting that politicians might not be well-equipped to handle the complexities of AI regulation. He mentioned that, similar to how ad tech evolved post-political events with clearer markings for sponsored content, AI might need similar transparency measures. The challenge lies in ensuring that AI systems explain their decision-making processes to maintain compliance and build trust. The conversation touches on Mendoza Ventures' investment strategies, focusing on fintech, blockchain, and AI, and the importance of building supportive ecosystems and networks for startups.
