Generative AI will revolutionize enterprise IT, but not in the way people expect. This episode of the Tech Field Day podcast includes Stephen Foskett discussing the impact of GenAI with Jack Poller, Calvin Hendryx-Parker, and Josh Atwell at AppDev Field Day. The discussion centered around the potential impact of generative AI on enterprises, debating whether it will significantly transform business operations or merely offer incremental improvements. Generative AI is still in its infancy and may not yet provide revolutionary benefits, but there is great potential for AI in automating tasks and enhancing efficiencies despite challenges in implementation and validation. We must be realistic when it comes to the application of AI in enterprises, and it is important to understand the real capabilities and limitations, and the role of existing vendors in integrating AI functionalities into their products.
