We're delighted to welcome back AI pioneer, Reddy Mallidi. Reddy has been busy since we last spoke, channelling his knowledge and passion into writing a book, AI Unleashed.
The true power of AI is not in replacing humans, but in creating super humans.
Reddy shares with us how he has numerous conversations that start with ‘We need AI’ to which his immediate response is ‘Yes, but what for? What is the use case?’
We'll hear first-hand accounts from his early days experimenting with neural networks in the 1990s to a standout achievement at Autodesk, where AI helped him tackle the colossal task of screening 50 million accounts. This episode illuminates the immense power of AI and the technological strides in computing power, data availability, and algorithm development that have brought us to this transformative point in history.
We explore how AI is reshaping the landscape of sales and HR, offering strategic benefits that enhance business efficiency. Discover how AI can sift through mountains of unstructured data, providing sales teams with pivotal insights to close high-probability deals and improve forecasting. We also dive into the ethical considerations of AI in HR, with cautionary tales like Amazon's early machine learning tool that inadvertently reinforced gender biases.
As Reddy highlights, when harnessed thoughtfully, AI serves as a powerful tool to augment human capabilities across various sectors, from finance to winemaking, all while ensuring data security and a positive organisational impact.
