Artificial intelligence has quickly become part of everyday life. It helps people write emails, summarize meetings, generate code, and answer questions in seconds.
But the next phase of AI may be less about generating information and more about taking action.
In this episode, Ty Panagoplos, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at Scotiabank, explains how AI has evolved from a specialized technology used by experts into a mainstream tool available to almost anyone.
