Unlike crypto and the latest fads, artificial intelligence (AI) seems to be the most significant technology breakthrough since the Web. How do we know? Because it's already affecting you or your customers, and if you're not already preparing, your competitors certainly are. Here's what we think you should understand about it as it unfolds...

I often used a simple trick when discussing turbulent zones in any market and trying to monitor as weak signals might become trends. I check how many events have been recently going on on a quick PESTEL checklist. If more than 3 or 4 of the letters have been checked

This is the weakest flex ever, but our website has been crawled, and its public content scrapped by Google to train its large language mode AI. It also means we've been on the map for all ChatGPT versions and other competing models, trying to catch up on OpenAI.

Among the many things that are not much discussed when considering ChatGPT dangers and biases is that it was built from predominantly English-speaking content. Just like China deep learning systems are only working on content in Mandarin, these systems have inherent cultural biases that obviously impact the quality of the

As ChatGPT unexpectedly tumbled out of stealth mode a few weeks ago, a few enormous flashpoint discussions are looming. One of them? Copyrights. Being anything but an expert in the matter, today, I wanted to simply share an article from Helen JIANG that details how copyright laws were born in

As often discussed, disruptions are vastly counterintuitive as we see them as sudden and unexpected, while they are always slow to bubble up. Regarding artificial intelligence, we can believe or not that Microsoft and ChatGPT are now racing ahead, but we might want to go back to the big picture.

Getting my eyes away from the turmoils ChatGPT is creating in the innovation ecosystem is difficult. A week rarely goes by without one of our customers asking an interesting question about this AI model. This week I had quite an interesting discussion with a former MBA student on how ChatGPT

💡I just made a quick repository of all my articles related to ChatGPT. This is for myself and future reference, but you might find it useful too. I've also added articles about digital strategy and why such generalized deep learning AI is a game-changer for the business models
While ChatGPT has been unleashed on the world, I started to read about European politicians and intellectuals demanding our version and asking why we couldn't invent it. This amounts to discovering a jungle and asking that we plant trees immediately to catch up ('sigh'). And while

Tim Rayner from Phase One Insight poked me recently to discuss an article on AI published at the beginning of the year. The article "The Third Magic" discussed many thorny concepts about AI and how we humans deal with knowledge, cognition, and power. Among (many) other things, the

With the seemingly sudden rise of artificial intelligence as the new thing that no one saw coming ('sigh'), there are vast amounts of media reports, business theories, and plain drama that use words like "revolution," "disruption," "breakthrough," "obsolescence" or even

Among the gazillions of new applications that ChatGPT is currently offering, one that I've found quite amusing (and efficient) is checking how good your marketing is. How to do that? Simply by asking the AI to explain back to you your tagline, missions statement, or the name of
