For those looking to understand how GenAI's foundational technology, Large Language Models (LLMs), actually work, I recommend this article by the Financial Times Despite GenAI being discussed by millions of people and articles daily, I frequently hear from business leaders that beyond the buzz words they still don’t understand how it works -- meaning how are LLMs trained, how are they different from traditional machine learning, how reliable is their output, and what tech innovation has caused this step change in excitement about AI. Its hard to get started implementing anything without that foundational knowledge. This is the most practical and digestible guide I've seen for any non-technical readers looking for an introduction to how GenAI works. And its written with intuitive graphics and animations rather than dense text -- https://lnkd.in/e3-_kRTZ #ArtificialIntelligence #LLM #QuantumBlack #AIbyMcKinsey

The paper "Leaders Look to Embrace AI and High Growth Companies Are Seeing the Benefit" by Esat Dedezade offers refreshing insights into how leaders can leverage AI effectively. The findings indicate that leaders who delegate operational tasks to AI can better focus on empowering their people. This shift allows leaders to engage more deeply in core leadership functions such as motivating employees, identifying new market opportunities, and setting strategic goals. One of the most compelling insights from the study is the urgency high-growth companies feel in adopting AI. These companies are not only using AI to drive efficiencies but also to fuel growth. The research reveals that companies with a greater urgency in AI adoption are more likely to be high performers compared to their slower-moving counterparts. This underscores the need for leaders to view AI with a sense of urgency, leveraging the time saved by AI to concentrate on high-impact leadership tasks. Dedezade's research also highlights several challenges that leaders face when integrating AI into their organizations. These include adapting AI to rapidly changing market environments, fostering a culture that thrives on AI, and developing AI-driven solutions to add value to customer problems. Despite these challenges, high-growth leaders are successfully using AI for decision-making and to enhance their leadership skills, particularly in creating a vision and setting strategy. So message to Leaders… .. Adpot AI with urgency .. Free up time for core leadership tasks .. Enhance your skills .. Focus on Culture Tech Mahindra
