Good news for "AI - Made in Europe", good news for Aleph Alpha, good news for #AI #ecosytem Baden-Württemberg.

🤖 German companies sceptical about non-German AI Read article by Tristan Fincken in COMPUTERWOCHE In a recent Bitkom study, a significant 84% of German companies expressed skepticism towards non-German AI solutions, highlighting a strong preference for homegrown alternatives. The survey, which included over 600 companies, revealed that 86% of generative AI users would prefer options developed in Germany, while only 64% favor U.S. offerings. The findings underscore the potential for Germany to become a leading hub for AI innovation, as currently only 9% of surveyed companies utilize generative AI, with an additional 18% planning to adopt it soon. This presents a substantial opportunity for German AI providers to meet the market demand and establish a competitive edge. 🚀 Potential solutions include the "DataHub Europe" by Schwarz Digits and Deutsche Bahn, a platform designed to enhance the digital transformation of European industries by providing a secure and GDPR-compliant environment for training AI models.

While 2023 was characterized by the discovery of hashtag#genAI, 2024 will be the year in which companies will actually want to implement this technology and derive business benefits from it. There is huge potential behind the hashtag#AI hype. "Firstly, because of the immense computing power now available, which is greatly accelerating the development of AI applications. Secondly, because of the broad applicability of generative tools making them a sort of AI Swiss army knife." 💡 What characterizes companies that are already successfully integrating AI into their strategy? They focus their AI efforts on specific areas, such as optimizing customer service or the supply chain. Companies that experiment in too many areas, on the other hand, are not utilizing their resources efficiently. Rodney Zemmel, Global Leader McKinsey Digital, explains in the NZZ how the hype could develop in the coming years: https://lnkd.in/gGxUzJVc #McKinseyonAI #StateofAI #NeverJustTech

"AI should not be in the hands of seven men who run large companies." 🤔 How do you see it? This is a great critical view by Stefan Woltran. 👉 We need more entrepreneurs, researchers, and thinkers from different backgrounds in AI who can truly shape the future, but also have a say in it. 👉 The sentiment expressed is quite relevant and reflects growing concerns about the concentration of power in the development of AI technology. 👉 The idea that AI should not be controlled by a small group of men leading large corporations highlights the risk of creating systems that prioritize profit, control, or narrow interests over broader societal benefits. I agree with the perspective shared by Stefan Woltran. We do need more #diverse #voices, including female entrepreneurs, researchers, and thinkers in AI. Especially in voice, image and movie generation we obviously see old-fashioned views or biases arising even more. 👉 A broader and more inclusive range of perspectives ensures that AI is developed in a way that serves the interests of all people, not just a select few. It also helps mitigate the risks of bias in AI systems, which can arise when only a limited demographic controls development. 💡 Shaping the future of AI should be a collaborative effort, with equal input from various sectors of society. This diversity fosters innovation and ensures that AI technology is aligned with ethical principles and human values, beyond just economic interests.

The #Baby #Boomer generation, despite their economic successes and life extension through scientific advancements, have led to a critical burden on the world economy due to a large number of retirees; the recognized solution for this is the increased use and #promotion of #AI, evidenced by massive investments in #Germany and the development of an AI action plan. Simultaneously, #Europe, particularly Germany, has chosen an independent path in AI development, supported by initiatives like Silo AI, Aleph Alpha and Mistral AI, as well as by the EU's first comprehensive #AI #law, to ensure a multipolar and #sovereign AI #future. #AiOrNotAi neusinger GmbH https://lnkd.in/dPV8x-vv
