Keeping an eye on AI

By Faith Hatton, posted 2 months ago

It is always such a trip for me to watch pieces of media from the past to see how people envisioned the future. I may sound old when I say this but, does anyone remember The Jetsons? The family of the future with the robot maid named Rosie? Did you all know that was supposed to take place in the year 2062?
I feel like we’re more than 37 years away from having the type of technology that will allow you to fold your car up into a little cube.
How about Back to the Future Part II? We’re now 10 years overdue for a hoverboard and dehydrated Pizza Hut pizzas that can feed a full family that you can rehydrate in seconds.
I remember when I was in college studying media communications looking at old advertisements that suggested we would be farming on the moon or enjoying baked goods from a roving bakery truck that stops by your house everyday.

While we aren’t wearing radio hats or staying in moving hotel buildings, technology has brought us to a place where we can use Bluetooth to wirelessly listen to music and some Recreational Vehicles are nicer than some hotels I’ve stayed in.

The development of technology from the year 2000 to the present has been a speed run of innovation and ingenuity. I remember when advertising for the iPod was centered around headphones and now, the company has done away with traditional wired headphones seemingly across the board. Now, Artificial Intelligence has entered the Chat GPT and a new era is about to begin.

With AI having the capability to write emails and advertisements, generate art and graphics, transcribe and translate languages live, research topics and so much more, there’s no telling what AI will be capable of in just a few short years.
I invite you all to join us at our upcoming Power Breakfast on June 12 titled “Applied Intelligence,” where we will be speaking with local experts to find out how AI can be utilized across numerous fields and help businesses!
