We're back for Q3 2024. Quick question of the day ... then onto the topics of the day.
Topic 1: MIT Releases the AI Risk Repository
Thanks to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for a major resource. It's definitely more for you than your clients. But we see great opportunity here.
The public database contains 700+ risks as documented by published papers. It includes many categories, based on severity and other variables.
Check it out here: https://airisk.mit.edu/
You can poke around online and gets some good information. Or download the entire database in Excel format. You can then sort, color code, or do whatever you want with the data.
And that includes providing educationi and training for your clients

Topic 2: Shocker - Google Has a Monopoly on Search!
Okay, not really a shocker. But does it matter that a judege says so?
Does anyone care (other than other search engines)? Would breaking up Google change anything? What is most likely to actually happen (e.g., Microsoft-like consent decree)? The 1984 AT&T breakup into seven baby Bells may help us see 40 years into the future
As usual, we discuss.

We have three different perspective on how much this "news" matters. As usual. What do you think?
