What happens when AI diagnoses patients better than doctors? Where does artificial intelligence truly stand on the hype cycle? Is all this computational power actually benefiting society? These critical questions frame our fascinating discussion recorded live at IMAPS Device Packaging Conference in Phoenix, Arizona.
Join our expert panel featuring Hemanth Jagannathan (IBM Research), Mark Kuemerle (Marvell), and Kimon Michaels (PDF Solutions) as they tackle AI's most pressing challenges and opportunities. Their collective expertise reveals surprising insights about how AI is transforming industries while raising important considerations about its implementation.
The conversation explores AI's evolution from specialized technical applications in semiconductors to today's consumer-facing generative tools. Our experts draw fascinating parallels between AI and previous technological breakthroughs like laser technology, suggesting we've only scratched the surface of potential applications. They provide compelling examples from healthcare where AI systems demonstrate superior diagnostic capabilities by processing complex datasets beyond human capacity.
While acknowledging concerns around data accuracy, power consumption, and appropriate boundaries, the panel remains optimistic about AI's future. They emphasize that today's implementations represent merely the beginning of a transformative technology whose full impact remains largely unanticipated. Yet they also agree on applications where human judgment should remain primary – including, amusingly, matchmaking.
Dive into this thought-provoking conversation to understand why organizations must either leverage AI effectively or risk being outpaced by competitors who do. Subscribe to 3D IncItes Podcast for more cutting-edge discussions on technologies shaping our future.
