London Breakfast Briefing | Local Networking Event

During our exclusive Breakfast Briefing on Thursday, June 20, 2024, our analysts shared insights on the adoption of gen AI across industries to decipher where enterprises have been able to straddle the spectrum from “can work” to “is working.”

Generative AI also kept regulatory bodies on their toes in 2023 as they struggled to develop guidelines for its safe implementation. Our analysts also discussed the challenges and opportunities presented by the ever-evolving regulatory landscape in the UK and EU.
