Dr Truyen Tran from Deakin University will present a seminar on Thursday 7 December.

AI as a general-purpose technology akin to steam engines and electricity, holds the potential for profound global socio-economic change. In this seminar, Dr Tran will delve into a new form of disruptive AI known as Generative AI (GenAI) and its revolutionary impact on how we live, work, and interact with our environment. This discussion will cover GenAI’s arrival, capability and its impact. We will also discuss the challenges and opportunities that GenAI presents to industry leaders and practitioners including the defence sector. We’ll explore its potential to reshape industries, push creative boundaries, and expand consolidated knowledge – GenAI has become the cornerstone upon which new platforms, companies, and industries are built.
