Fresh from the DLD conference, Antony shares insights on how AI is revolutionising creative processes and strategy. He emphasises that AI is not a threat but a tool that enhances human creativity.

🤖 What You'll Learn:

• How AI is revolutionising creative processes
• Why domain expertise is crucial for leveraging AI
• The geopolitical implications of AI technology
• The future of AI and its impact on strategy

Key Takeaways:

• We won't be replaced by AI, but enhanced. It works best with human involvement.
• Fear is not a useful reaction.
• AI is a platform shift technology where a new technology comes out and it changes how you use all the other technology.
• There will be a 'technology overhang', which means that even if development stops on generative AI or artificial intelligence now, there are still 5-10 years of innovation and value from what we will do with it.
• Regulation will be incredibly difficult, but we need leaders and people to have the experience to understand its true potential impact.
