It’s hard to remember that the Generative Era is barely more than a year into its fledgling life since LLMs were cast upon us, and the tremendous excitement that GPT-4 started delivering with all the dramatic improvements helping us create new content and data<\/a>.<\/p>\n However, our new research* covering a quarter of the Global 2000 shows things have not moved as fast as many of us were expecting, with only 5% of enterprises committing significant technology spend on GenAI and successfully deploying GenAI solutions across multiple parts of their business, and two-thirds doing practically nothing:<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Click to Enlarge<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n The big problem with any type of new tech, since John Mauchly initiated modern computer programming in 1949 with Short Code<\/a>, is that business folks dump it into the tech people to figure out and implement for them.\u00a0 While they get excited at the tech’s potential impact<\/em> on their businesses to be slicker, smarter, and more competitive, they do not believe they need to get pulled deep into the technology to understand exactly how<\/em> it can do it and what the business needs to do to exploit it.<\/p>\n This is why so many businesses got sold down the river with cloud migration during the pandemic and RPA just prior. They bought into the vision the technology firms were selling but gave it to technologists to implement that vision without changing how they ran their businesses\u00a0to drive that change<\/em>.<\/p>\n As Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella recently bemoaned, the uptake of AI “hinges on other companies doing \u2018the hard work\u2019 of changing their cultures<\/a>.”\u00a0 Easier said than done, Satya, but perhaps Microsoft needs to invest in fast-track change management services to help your clients buy more CoPilot licenses?<\/p>\n The one thing that has been consistent since ChatCPT 3.5 was launched in November 2022 has been the continual proliferation of LLMs and the capabilities of the technology.\u00a0 However, it is the latest iteration of GPT that makes the biggest advancement yet and will surely wake up the majority of enterprise leaders as we pointed out when GPT-4 hit the streets<\/a> last year.<\/p>\n I am one of the biggest cynics when it comes to tech innovation and business change because of one reason\u2014there needs to be a bloody great burning platform to force businesses to adopt. With GPT-4o, many of the reasons for murdering the technology in this death spiral of a thousand pilots<\/em> have been the inability to adapt it to so many business scenarios.\u00a0 Ambitious C-suites will clamor louder than ever to see this AI tech immersed into their organizations and will seek leaders to defrost their frozen middle ranks to make this happen for them.\u00a0 Your job may not be replaced directly by AI, but you will more likely be replaced by someone who knows how to use AI if you don’t wake up and get with the GenAI program.<\/p>\n To conclude, I will go back to the main excitement behind GenAI… it is disruptive because it helps us create new data and new content. But it needs to become an extension of our humanness<\/em> to do that, not merely another technology tool that can add some value in bits and pieces.\u00a0 Having multimodal capability that brings speech, text, video, and content together in one neural network that we can communicate with in real-time and immerse into our day-to-day activities is the game changer we have been unwittingly waiting for.\u00a0 Now it is here, and we can only imagine how quickly this will keep evolving as OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Apple, Microsoft, NVidia, and co keep pumping all their investments into this emerging tech.<\/p>\n * The survey was conducted in collaboration with Genpact.\u00a0 We will be releasing the full study on 5\/22<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s hard to remember that the Generative Era is barely more than a year into its fledgling life since LLMs…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5819,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47,867,959,49,1014,51,953,85,932,1092,1073,63,1057,1248],"tags":[1239,1242,1015,1059,1062,1235,1243,1244,324,1052,1063,366,1234,1236,390,1247,400,401,549,1241,1238,1237,619,1245,1246,1240],"ppma_author":[19],"yoast_head":"\nSo, what will spark enterprises to move faster with GenAI and keep it from the graveyard of so many previous technology “innovations”?<\/span><\/h3>\n
