ChatGPT brought generative AI into the limelight when it hit 1 million users in five days. But how valid is the buzz around ChatGPT? We unpack what you need to know: How does generative AI work? Who are the key players? Is ChatGPT ready for prime time? And most importantly: How will the technology change the way we do business?
So what exactly is generative AI, why should you care? Generative AI is artificial intelligence that creates content from simple prompts and context. This new technology can be used to create everything from essays to 3D objects, and newer models can even combine more than one capability.
Generative AI comprised less than 1% of total US venture capital (VC) funding of $238.3 billion in 2022, according to Pitch Book and the National Venture Capital Association (NVCA). But an estimated 450 startups and several new funds for generative AI indicate a hot market and high hopes for growth.
What is ChatGPT, and how does it fit into the equation? ChatGPT is a conversational AI model built by OpenAI (GPT stands for generative pretrained transformer). Released November 30, 2022, as a proof of concept, it gained 1 million users in five days and blasted into the popular consciousness. Despite the excitement, many limitations and challenges remain, and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman tweeted a warning about ChatGPT: "it's a mistake to be relying on it for anything important right now."
Generative AI models simulate how we think by relying on algorithms that "learn" with each use. They start with millions of labeled pictures, text, or other media, and gradually identify patterns that allow them to understand and create content independently. Humans often fine-tune a model as it evolves. Although OpenAI is the best-known generative AI company, it's not the only one.
Creative industries have already started to feel the change of workflows due to generative AI. Copywriters, designers, coders, photo and video editors, and even strategists now have access to generative AI tools that can simplify their day-to-day tasks. However, it has the potential to disrupt some businesses and will spark backlash over accuracy, fairness, and plagiarism.
Generative AI is triggering a communications revolution that will make it much easier to research, create, and test content. And the changes will likely happen more quickly than in past content revolutions. Want to learn more about ChatGPT and Generative AI?

ChatGPT and Generative AI in Insurance: Reality, Hype, What's Next, and How to Prepare
ChatGPT, a conversational AI model built by OpenAI, is the most talked-about technology of 2023. And it has piqued the interest of insurance industry leaders. But where exactly will ChatGPT, and generative AI broadly, have the greatest impact? And what are its most and least promising use cases?
Generative AI is set to revolutionize various types of insurance. Based on the impact of the technology in the US, property and casualty insurance will be the most transformed and health insurance will be the second-most impacted. However, life insurance is expected to be least impacted by generative AI, especially in the short term.
Over the course of the next three years, there will be many promising use cases for generative AI. The most valuable and viable are personalized marketing campaigns, employee-facing chatbots, claims prevention, claims automation, product development, fraud detection, and customer-facing chatbots. Although there are many positive use cases, generative AI is not currently suitable for underwriting and compliance.
While generative AI's rise was sudden, it will take time for insurers to fully embrace its power and potential. In the full report, we delve into the future of generative AI and provide actionable steps for insurance providers to prepare for its rise.
