Artificial intelligence (AI) – hardly any other topic currently dominates the headlines of business magazines, tech conferences and board meetings as much as this one.

Generative AI in particular, i.e. AI systems that can independently generate text, images or even music, is causing quite a stir. But what is actually behind it and how can companies use this technology effectively?

Generative AI is based on so-called large language models or generative networks that learn from huge amounts of data in order to deliver creative outputs. Well-known examples include ChatGPT, DALL-E and Midjourney. In companies, this technology can be used, for example, to create marketing texts, develop product ideas, automate processes or improve customer dialogs.

What are the risks and what do you need to watch out for?

The possibilities are impressive – but also complex. If you really want to understand how AI works, where its opportunities and limitations lie and how it can be used strategically, you need guidance from real experts.
