Expert insights from Salvador Baille and Wilhelm Hartvig

The seminar was illuminated by the perspectives of Wilhelm Hartvig, AI Lead at Sopra Steria, and Salvador Baille, Executive Advisor and CEO of Intelis, each bringing a unique lens to the AI dialogue. Wilhelm gave the audience a glimpse into the rapid advancements in generative AI, offering practical advice on its adoption. In contrast, Salvador provided a strategic lens, cautioning against potential missteps in AI integration.

The practicalities of adopting generative AI

In this presentation, Wilhelm emphasised the potential of AI but also pointed out the importance of having a nuanced approach to succeed. To unlock its potential, he gave the following advice:
  • Experiment Early: Dive into AI, understand its nuances, and test its capabilities within your context.
  • Understand Possibilities and Limitations: Tailor AI applications to your unique use cases.
  • Adhere to Guidelines: Ensure compliance with usage policies for safe and ethical AI development.
“We're at a pivotal moment with generative AI. The pace of development isn't just rapid; it's exponential. The key is to harness this momentum thoughtfully.”

Avoiding potential missteps in AI integration

As an experienced innovation expert, Salvador walked us through his insights from strategic thinking when it comes to emerging tech and pointed out how a strategic pivot to AI has the potential to redefine the definition of growth and innovation. His key pieces of advice were:
  • Strategise with AI in Mind: Integrate AI into your future-proofing strategy.
  • Navigate Regulation: Engage with frameworks like the EU's AI Act without stifling innovation.
  • Value over Efficiency: Prioritise AI's transformative potential, not just its ability to streamline processes.
“Looking at AI, we must see beyond the horizon. It's not just about adopting technology; it's about adapting our strategic mindset to leverage AI meaningfully.”
