Future of Work. Making Sense of the AI Hype

We continue discussing the future of work, and in today’s episode, we look at it from the AI angle. What can we expect from AI democratization, and what are the dangers of AI hype? Is today’s AI-assisted software development any better than just auto-fill? How to make sense of the emerging generative models and expand your creativity? Tune in as we address these and more questions with our guests Johan Himberg and Jimi Hyvärinen.
