The Origins Story and the Future Now of Generative AI:  The fast moving impacts and exponential capabilities of generative artificial intelligence over the course of just one year.

Generative AI – Socio-Technological Risks, Potential Impacts, Market Dynamics, and Cybersecurity Implications:  The risks, potential positive and negative impacts, market dynamics, and security implications of generative AI have have emerged  – slowly, then rapidly, as the unprecedented hype cycle around artificial intelligence settled into a more pragmatic stoicism  – with project deployments – over the course of 2023.

In the Era of Code, Generative AI Represents National Security Risks and Opportunities for “Innovation Power”:  We are entering into the Era of Code. Code that writes code and code that breaks code. Code that talks to us and code that talks for us. Code that predicts and code that decides. Code that rewrites us. Organizations and individuals that prioritize understanding how the Code Era impacts them will develop increasing advantage in the future.  At OODAcon 2023, we will be taking a closer look at Generative AI innovation and the impact it is having on business, society, and international politics. IQT and the Special Competitive Studies Project (SCSP) recently weighed in on this Generative AI “spark” of innovation that will “enhance all elements of our innovation power” – and the potential cybersecurity conflagarations that may also be lit by that same spark.
