Marketing is a critical discipline to the success of any company but so much of our responsibility has been diffused across modern corporations it is almost impossible to deliver the value we know we bring. How did we get here?

In our first technology episode, we set the table to talk more about AI.

Show notes:

1. What is ChatGPT? We talk very high level about how generative AI tools work. GPT = generative pretrained transformer, so this is a pretty cool technical innovation. It's not a magical mystical new tool. We keep it high level, but we talk about the components of an AI application to ground our future discussions about AI.
2. We talk about some of the things ChatGPT can do well.
3. We cover some of the unintended consequences of rushing to use AI on everything.
4. You have to review the output of generative AI tools. Understand the dataset that was used to train the generative tool, and what the tool was trained to produce. Also, if you have ESG initiatives, it is important to understand the environmental impact, as well as the impact to the people who clean the data are treated.
5. Should you be afraid of ChatGPT?

We don't have a guest for this episode, but it will set the stage for the other technical episodes that we have planned. Please let us know what you think about ChatGPT on Techaunties.com or Instagram.
