From crunching data to optimizing logistics\, it’s been the silent engine powering industries while most people were oblivious. The difference now? GPT models slapped a face on it\, made it talk\, and suddenly everyone thinks AI just showed up to the party. \nBut let’s be clear: AI isn’t a silver bullet\, and the hype can outpace reality. Skepticism is healthy—it’s not going to fix every problem\, and mishandled\, it can create new ones. Yet\, for those ready to cut through the noise\, AI offers tools too potent to ignore. \nNetworking Happy Hour\nFollowing the presentations\, head to the JTV rooftop to reconnect with familiar faces and make new connections at the networking happy hour. We’ll watch the sunset while enjoying drinks and hors d’oeuvres.
