When Not to Use Generative AI

Gartner’s podcast episode examines situations when generative AI use is inappropriate and explores other impactful AI techniques.

Generative AI (GenAI) adoption has exploded over the past year, and it has rapidly become one of the most deployed AI techniques across business units and organizations, according to Gartner surveys. There’s a good reason: GenAI offers the promise of both every day and game-changing business improvements. But GenAI is not a silver bullet.

In this episode, Gartner Senior Director Analyst Leinar Ramos, whose work focuses on artificial intelligence, explains that generative AI is only one piece of the much broader AI landscape, and most business problems require a combination of different AI techniques. Ignore this fact, and you risk overestimating the impacts of GenAI and implementing the technology for use cases where it will not deliver the intended results.
