Cloud Realities

How far has GenAI come beyond the tech innovation in the last 18 months - we hear a lot about the latest amazing advancements, but with its business application, are we still stuck in a PoC loop?

This week Dave and Rob talk to Bernard Marr, Futurist, Tech & Strategy Advisor about his work to date (over 20 books!) and his new book 'Generative AI in practice. 100 amazing ways it is changing our world'.  We touch on evolution of AI, effect on business and society and the risks and challenges as AI scales.
