Is generative AI the viral sensation we’ve been promised? Headlines are selling it as a panacea, but 30-year AI industry vet Eric Siegel says that’s mostly hype. It may be impressive and introduce efficiencies, but it won’t run the world as we’ve been promised.

Predictive AI, Siegel argues, holds all of the transformative potential that we’ve been guaranteed with generative AI and the LLMs that have become increasingly popular. While generative AI works on a low-level of detail and isn’t able to be trusted blindly, predictive AI is fully-autonomous, and can be implemented across a wide range of industries.

Here’s why Siegel thinks the actual potential lies with predictive modeling, and why we’re not going to replicate human intelligence in machines anytime soon.
