With AI firmly in the spotlight, enterprises worldwide are preparing to embrace, scale, and overcome the hurdles of AI-product development. With a sizeable reward on the table - with nearly two trillion dollars set to be realized by 2030 - AI is having its dot-com moment, and now is the time to strike. 

Despite this, separating nauseating hype from tangible fact is a challenge, particularly when a global frenzy has arisen around the impact of AI, computer vision, and machine learning. Will large language models reshape the net? Can generative AI shut down industries at will? And is the AI juice really worth the squeeze, against the backdrop of risk, ethical qualms, and regulatory horizons?

To answer these burning questions, V7 Founder and CEO, Alberto Rizzoli joined The AI in Business Podcast to tackle the details of LLMs, predict the future of the AI tool stack, and explore the prominent use cases of AI today.
