Generative artificial
intelligence: towards a newcivilization?
While the rapid ascent of ChatGPT has fascinated theworld, it is, in reality, just the tiny tip of a gigantic iceberg.
We have just entered a new transformative era ofartificial intelligence (AI), in which every sector will be
impacted: even the notion of creativity, which webelieved to be the preserve of our civilization, is now
accessible to artificial intelligence. The speed at which
this revolution is unfolding is dizzying, making it difficult
to keep up. In this inspiring and educational conference,
we will address four crucial questions: What are thesegenerative AIs and how do they work? What applications,from the most obvious to the least, are redefining ourworld? What are the limitations and risks we must
confront? And what can we expect in the days, weeks,
and years to come, and how can we prepare for thisincredible journey ahead?

9Navigating Uncertainty:
Leadership tools in the era of
exponential technologies
Today's leader faces a major challenge: making
decisions and taking action in a complex and shifting
technological fog, even though the human brain is notdesigned for this. Indeed, the majority of digitaltechnologies are so-called exponential technologies:
their performance grows exponentially. The mainconsequence is that a technology that may seem still
immature today is also likely to progress extremely
quickly and have a massive impact on value chains andsociety. In this inspiring and educational conference, wewill address three crucial questions: What are these
exponential technologies? How to identify the criticaluncertainties they present? How to decide and act insuch uncertainty?

Should we care that Ais will be

Generative artificial intelligences (AIs) arebased on neural networks that have, on theone hand, been trained on immense bodies
of data and information, and on the otherhand, been adjusted by humans to return theexpected answers. The results are staggeringand the performance gains unprecedented,
but then so are the risks. In this Blue Shift
Bulletin, inspired by an interview with Accor
Chief Digital Officer (CDO) and executive
committee member Alix Boulnois, we consider
briefly one of the darker prospects for AI.
