Five insights gleaned from the recent Intel Ignite & Two Lanterns Venture Capital: AI Innovation Night at the MIT Media Lab: 1) Massachusetts Institute of Technology prof to prof: Speaking with Hari Balakrishnan, Ramesh Raskar said #decentralizedAI is coming. I say for Domino Data Lab and Vultr, the future is already here as they are currently enabling #inference at the edge. 2) Ramesh also said that in the totality of #AI use cases in business, #generativeAI will play a very small role compared to #traditionalAI, which begs the question “How much higher will the pricetag for genAI fomo go?” 3) Patricia Geli of C10 Labs drew distinctions between #screenAI and #dimensionalAI, where dimensional “transcends the limitations of 2D screens to employ AI to address real-world challenges.” Starting an AI software company is comparatively easy; but starting a company around dimensional AI may be the fast track to competitive advantage. (And maybe the faster path to saving the world.) 4) Alex Finkelstein of Spark Capital said that unlike previous technological innovations that tended to cause more disruption for laborers and tradespeople, AI is far more likely to disrupt white-collar professions. Sounds like professional flexibility is still the key. 5) G20 Ventures’ Mike Troiano had the best quip of the night: “Startups succeed by acts of individual heroism. Companies succeed by repeatable processes.” Hard to argue with that one! https://lnkd.in/eWcKvyzw
