This ongoing generative AI assistant hype-cycle already feels like it's been going on for a decade, with Big Tech pouring billions into systems that simultaneously are supposed to take away our jobs and enhance our working day.
So with the likes of [1]Google , [2]Microsoft , [3]AMD , [4]Amazon , and [5]Qualcomm publishing their latest financial results this week, what better time to see what real-world effects artificial intelligence has had or will have on us users and big business, and any other observations crossing our minds.
Joining regular host Iain Thomson today we have, from top right down, fellow Register journalists Chris Williams, Simon Sharwood, and Tobias Mann, discussing the red and black on the balance sheets.
