When Not to Use Generative AI
As we continue to incorporate AI into our own work, it’s worth considering when GenAI is not appropriate — and in those situations, which, if any, other AI techniques are.
In this episode, Gartner Senior Director Analyst Leinar Ramos, whose work focuses on artificial intelligence, explains that generative AI is not the silver bullet it’s often made out to be. While indeed game-changing, GenAI is only one aspect of a much larger and more fruitful AI landscape.

Customer Reviews
Please go back to shorter format
I really enjoyed the shorter format where you treated a specific topic after which one could reflect on the ideas discussed, formulate next steps and dig deeper. But the larger format is really distracting as you jump from topic to topic. It also is contrary to the established research on learning abilities and information absorption (smaller chunks are better.)
In any case, this podcast really provides new insights and different perspectives to issues of the day while guiding to the future. Thanks for that.
Valuable insights for leaders
Love getting into the minds of Gartner experts. The topics are spot on for what matters today. It’s like a quick take of the latest Gartner research.
Insightful and Actionable
Gartner ThinkCast provides a taste of the unique insight, research and advice available from Gartner experts. Conversational but informative, each episode provides food for thought to take back to your organization.
