The introduction of Apple’s transformative product in 2007 was a moment that changed the future. Like the now iconic iPhone, the launch of generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Google Bard have captured the public’s imagination, launching an explosion of applications and experiments across nearly every industry, from business and commerce, to art and government.For many of these use cases, the “how” behind the AI model isn’t particularly relevant.
