🚨 Conference Recap 🚨
CNBC Evolve: AI Opportunity
A recurring theme? AI is currently not great at replacing human behavior but quite good at enabling efficiency, enhancing decision-making, and creating new opportunities across a variety of sectors—while requiring careful management of risks like bias and data security.
Vimal Kapur, CEO, Honeywell:
“AI for industry is in a different context compared to AI that we all hear in our daily lives. For us, AI is a pathway towards autonomy… autonomous industries are equally great. Think about it—autonomous planes, autonomous buildings, autonomous warehouses.”
Jake Loosararian, CEO, Gecko Robotics:
“We’re obsessed with building robotics and software to help diagnose the health of the built world. You have to figure out how to extend the useful life of infrastructure, and the only way you can do that is by collecting first health data and merging it with process data.”
Anaeze Offodile, EVP, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center:
“Artificial intelligence will be disseminated across healthcare… leveraging AI thoughtfully to optimize care decisions is a key focus for us. AI enhances the quality of decision-making with respect to each patient’s unique situation.”
Jennifer Langton, MBA, SVP, Player Health and Safety, National Football League (NFL):
“What AI enables us to do is model head impacts for every player, in real time, across all 32 teams. It’s changed how we train coaches to get the head out of the game and improve injury prevention strategies.”
Nancy Xu, CEO, Moonhub 🚀:
“AI agents can now look through over a billion people across the public web in less than 10 minutes to find the exact talent you need. We’re helping companies hire better and faster while expanding the talent pool.”
Mark Douglas, Founder, MNTN:
“90% of our customers have never advertised on TV before. We’re democratizing TV advertising with AI by using generative tools for creating scripts, audio, and even video—making the impossible affordable for small and mid-sized businesses.”
Cristóbal Valenzuela, CEO, Runway:
“We’re working with studios to develop custom AI models that can enhance media creation. It’s about providing tools that make filmmaking and storytelling more accessible, allowing creatives to push boundaries.”
Katherine Forrest, Technology Group Chair, Paul Weiss:
“AI has the potential for tremendous good, but also some real dangers. Companies need to ensure they have risk management frameworks in place to mitigate cyber and ethical risks AI can introduce.”
Ryan Serhant CEO, SERHANT.:
“The future of real estate isn’t tech-enabled, it’s AI-empowered. We created AI tools that handle the boring work for agents, freeing them up to focus on relationships and selling, which is the heart of the business.”
Excited to see how AI will continue driving growth and innovation in public and private sectors. #AI #Innovation #CNBCEvolve #TechLeadership #AIOpportunity #iConnections
