Can GenAI Help Future Proof Your Career?
Depending on your age and experience, generative AI may not be your first rodeo in terms of enormous industry trends. In this session, Tim offers practical guidance on how best to approach generative AI based on the past decades’ history.
What you'll learn
In the 1970s, there were personal calculators and computers. In the 1980s, there was industrial robotics. In the 1990s, there was the Internet. In the 2000s, there was virtualization, containerization, cloud computing, and now generative AI. In this session, Tim Warner and Michael Teske describe how closely today’s generative AI wave replicates past history (both have worked in the industry for most of the listed paradigm shifts). You’ll walk away from this session with a clearer understanding of how generative AI truly works, where it fits into IT’s history, and what you can do starting right now to get on top of AI to “future proof” your career as much as anybody can.
