Join top executives in San Francisco on July 11-12, to hear how leaders are integrating and optimizing AI investments for success. The noisy debates around AI risk and regulation got many decibels louder last week, while simultaneously becoming even harder to decipher. There was the blowback from tweets by Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) about ChatGPT, including that "Something is coming. Then there was the complaint to the FTC about OpenAI, as well as well as Italy's ban on ChatGPT. And, most notably, the open letter signed by Elon Musk, Steve Wozniak that proposed a six-month'pause' on large-scale AI development.

Experts have fretted about the risks of building supersmart AIs for years, but the conversation has become louder over the last six months as new image generators and chatbots that can have eerily humanlike conversations have been released to the public. Interacting with the newly-released chatbots like OpenAI's GPT4 has prompted many to declare that a human-level AI is just around the corner, but other experts point out that the way the chatbots work is by simply guessing the right words to say next based on their training, which included reading trillions of words online. The bots often devolve into bizarre conversational loops if prompted for long enough, and pass off made-up information as factual.
