episode 54: A.I. Is Driving an Information Revolution
Artificial Intelligence is on every business leader’s agenda. How do we make sense of the fast-moving new developments in AI over the past year? In new episodes released throughout December and January, Azeem Azhar returns to bring clarity to leaders who face a complicated information landscape.
This week, Azeem speaks with Aravind Srinivas, the co-founder and CEO of Perplexity.ai, about the looming challenges in AI research and product development, such as user-centric design and the importance of open-source models.
They discuss:
- AI as a tool for democratizing information access.
- The “innovator’s dilemma” for Google Search.
- Whether or not conversational interfaces will become the norm for how we interact with AI.
- The array of interests shaping the AI regulation debate.
