the near future.
Trend: Generative AI and increased focus on explainable AI and ethical considerations
Generative AI is taking us one step closer to what we’ve always seen from cinematic tech of
the future. ChatGPT, a generative AI technology that utilizes natural language processing and
can generate text based on a prompt, caused quite a stir upon its release in November 2022 as
leaders evaluated the impact of the technology on business applications, but also tried to
anticipate the ethical implications of a technology that can mimic human output. Largely, how
can we determine if copy came from people or technology?
Explainable AI is a subset of artificial intelligence and is the next step in our technology
journey, where the technology provides logic and reasoning for why it came to a conclusion.
Previously, even the developers of AI often couldn’t explain how achieved a particular
outcome. Explainable AI provides an outcome and how it got there. Use Cases
