Good morning.
Generative A.I. has taken the C-suite by storm in the last six months, as a new study out today from IBM verifies. (CEO Daily got an early look.) Of more than 3,000 global CEOs surveyed, some 75% said they believe competitive advantage in the future will go to those who lead in A.I. For them, the race is on.
Forward-thinking CEOs, of course, have known for some years that the new generation of technologies—cloud computing, an explosion of data, machine learning—were going to transform their companies and their industries. But ChatGPT showed them the power, sparking imaginations in ways previous technology tools hadn’t. It is so intuitive and easy for even a CEO to use. I spent a couple of hours this weekend conversing with Google’s Bard about ideas to grow Fortune Media—and the Bard’s ideas weren’t half bad! And far less costly than a consultant.
