Fortune Brainstorm AI took place Dec. 9–10, 2024, in San Francisco. The livestream has concluded. You can read coverage of this event, and other past Brainstorm AI events, here.
Hype around AI only increased this year as industry leaders like OpenAI and Nvidia have ridden the wave of excitement to become two of the most talked-about companies in the world. Massive companies like Meta, Alphabet, and Amazon have invested vast sums into building up their AI infrastructure, be it through the development of their own large language models or integrating AI into features like Google Search. At the same time, policymakers have emphasized the need for both investment in and regulation of the breakthrough technology. The future of such policy, however, now remains shadowed by a second Trump Administration.
As AI’s use cases have surged over the past year, so has the rush to bring the technology to more professional fields. In what ways does AI analysis present both risks and rewards for financial services companies? In what ways can AI prevent diseases through predictive medicine while improving care for those already diagnosed? What does it mean for AI to become a pivotal part of creative processes in fashion and music? How are companies like Alphabet and Microsoft embracing AI, and how does it differ from the startups going up against them?
Corporate leaders, AI experts, and unexpected players in the space, like Super Bowl quarterback Colin Kaepernick, will join forces to answer such questions at the 2024 Fortune Brainstorm AI conference.
