Artificial Intelligence dominates the headlines—and it’s clear we’re in the middle of a major hype cycle. But beneath the buzz, genuine innovations are delivering tangible value. So what’s real, what’s exaggerated, and what’s next? Join Richard Campbell for an insightful look at the current AI surge, why it matters, and where the real success stories are happening today. Explore the opportunities, the challenges, and the eventual end of the hype cycle—so you can separate the promise from the noise and prepare for the future of AI in business and development.

A historical perspective on artificial intelligence traces its evolution from Marvin Minsky's 1955 coining of the term through neural networks, image recognition breakthroughs, and the rise of large language models like GPT. The talk examines the current AI hype cycle, comparing it to the dot-com boom, and explores both genuine use cases (particularly in software development with tools like GitHub Copilot) and serious concerns including mental health impacts, deep fakes, market distortions driven by seven tech giants, and ethical responsibilities. The speaker emphasizes that while powerful tools exist, developers must choose how to use them responsibly, citing examples like Uber's Greyball and Cambridge Analytica as cautionary tales.
