The year 2023 will be remembered as the year that artificial intelligence (AI) stepped into the limelight, powered by the public’s use and exposure to large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT. Firms across all sectors have been exposed to its comparative strengths, from operational efficiency gains to automation and time and resource savings.

At the same time, the exposure has triggered a wider discussion focused on the future of AI. Regulation, compliance, the evolution of the workforce and upskilling are regularly included in conference and summit agendas. Companies are assessing their use and position on AI technologies, determining how AI can be used to their advantage while also identifying potential risks involved in its application.
