The Current State of AI in the Enterprise

What mindset shift should CIOs and CTOs make in order to succeed in an AI-driven world? How can they take control of their destinies and future proof to ensure responsible AI use in their organization? In this episode, Yadin sits down with Jeff Boudier, who is responsible for Product and Growth at Hugging Face, to discuss in depth. They cover using a principles-first approach, teaching a machine to be friendly, and increases in productivity. ---------Key Quotes:“AI is becoming the default way to build technology and most technology is going to be running some machine learning models in the background. Those models are going to be running everywhere from cloud to data center all the way to your pocket.”“At the end of the day, what I'm really looking forward to is for every single company in the world to be able to build and own their own models.”“Open models, open datasets and open source AI are really the only way forward for enterprises. If they want to be future-proof,  in terms of auditability, in terms of regulation, in terms of compliance, then it's about being in control of your own destiny, right? Because AI is so key to everything you're going to be offering to customers.”---------Timestamps:(01:46) The start of Hugging Face seven years ago (02:41) What was machine learning like at that time?(03:49) Teaching a machine to be friendly (04:46) The shift that resulted from the seminal paper “Attention Is All You Need”(06:20) The shift from writing an application to finding a model(07:18) The increase in productivity from machine learning (08:21) Ethical use of AI (09:55) Are enterprises ready to think through complex AI questions?(11:08) How CTOs are moving to a “model mindset”(12:20) Evaluating models (14:40) Offering end-to-end solutions (16:13) Using a first principles approach (20:49) Where will AI run? --------Links:Jeff Boudier on LinkedInCIO Exchange on TwitterYadin Porter de León on Twitter[Subscribe to the Podcast] On Apple PodcastFor more podcasts, video and in-depth research go to https://www.vmware.com/cio
