What does generative AI mean for software companies?
Summary
The success of ChatGPT and the race among competitors to bring out their alternatives points to a growing bubble in generative AI and machine learning. The potential oligopoly, changes to the day-to-day running and long-term trajectory of software companies, and other aspects indicate that the recent progress in machine learning will translate into restrictions for some, but great opportunities for others. For machine learning models that generate images, the current major players are the startup competitor from MidJourney and the open-source Stable Diffusion. The situation may be comparable to the one we’re seeing between SaaS and on-premises software and the impact this is having, such as the German government’s decision to move its primary healthcare organizations to Matrix for communications to control the key infrastructure. The selection is wide-ranging, from technology deep dives to case studies to expert opinion, but also subjective, based on our judgment of which topics and treatments will best serve InfoWorld’s technically sophisticated audience.
