When deciding how to use AI, businesses must consider the full impact, not just the financial cost.
This episode of the Tech Field Day podcast, recorded prior to AI Field Day 9, brings together Ron Pagani, Jr., John Willis, Dave Nicholson, and Stephen Foskett to consider all the costs of AI. One of the biggest issues with AI is maintainability, since the technology tends to create so-called technical debt by building unsustainable systems.
These costs are difficult to see let alone plan for, since by definition we don't know about them. The technical challenges of AI systems also introduce issues, since they can be daunting to implement even for IT and application development experts.
AI systems also tend to converge on similar solutions, so there is a risk that multiple users will get the same answer and this too could pose a risk. There is also a question of accountability and IP ownership for AI-generated content and actions. It's critical to remember that any content created by an LLM is ultimately the responsibility of the people using it.
This and more on the Tech Field Day Podcast, part of the Futurum Media Podcast Network.
