Wild West of AI

This Picture Seems Orderly But Don’t Let It Fool Ya

  1. Mckinsey - Non Technical article “The promise and the reality of gen AI agents in the enterprise” - The numbers are staggering. Mckinsey estimated that gen AI enterprise use cases could yield $2.6 trillion to $4.4 trillion annually in value across more than 60 use cases.

  2. Maven Lightning Talk on AI Agent Design: The presenter Jeremy Kirshbaum was a game-changer for me. Check his AI Agent Design course out. I will be taking it in July and can’t wait.

  3. Join Jeremy’s Handshake Discord Community: Found this thought-provoking article, "AI Leaderboards are No Longer Useful. It's Time to Switch to Pareto Curves." Lots to chew on and think about in the Generative AI playing field. Join the Discord to discuss.

  4. Unleashing the Power of Agents Podcast on The Data Exchange

    A great primer by Ben Lorica 罗瑞卡 with João (Joe) Moura on AI Agents. Tip: I listen to it on 1.5x speed.

  5. Does AI have a gross margin problem? by CJ Gustafon with JoĂŁo (Joe) Moura (. My prediction is that compute costs will continue to come down and gross margin will go up. That is until quantum computing goes main stream and the next AI gold rush cycle repeats.

  1. ChatGPT desktop App for Mac From OpenAI. Article from ZDNet a blast from the DOS past! Ouch, that hurt. Simple overview of install and ways that it is useful. Just started playing with it. Will share more as I experiment. Love to hear your thoughts as well.

  1. Friday Funnies 🤣 .

    Last Scarlett Johansson joke ever! What can I say - my Family and I love Friends.

Send me your best AI meme and I will post the Top 5 and put it to a vote by our readership! I am sure anyone can do better! Winner gets a bottle Moet Champagne! Have to get at least five memes for there to be a competition!
