Umbar Shakir, Gate One: Ethically Harnessing the Potential of Generative AI

Umbar Shakir, Partner and AI Lead at Gate One, recently shared her insights on the diverse landscape of generative AI (GenAI) and its impact on businesses. In preparation for the AI & Big Data Expo Global, Shakir discussed the wide range of GenAI applications, from productivity enhancements to strategic data mining. She emphasized the transformative power of AI in understanding customer data and providing actionable insights for improved customer engagement strategies.

Gate One adopts an adaptive strategy approach, moving away from traditional long-term strategies and focusing on agile and adaptable frameworks. By solving specific challenges and aligning strategies with business objectives, Gate One aims to drive meaningful digital transformation for its clients.

Shakir also discussed Gate One’s diagnostic tools, which assess a client’s readiness to adopt GenAI successfully. By categorizing clients as “vanguard” or “safe” players, Gate One tailors their approach to meet individual readiness levels, ensuring a seamless integration of GenAI into the client’s operations.

Addressing the challenges associated with GenAI, Shakir emphasized the importance of addressing biases, amplifications, and ethical concerns. Gate One is actively working on refining models and data inputs to mitigate these problems.

Looking ahead, Shakir predicted a demand for more ethical AI practices from consumers and increased pressure on developers to create representative and unbiased models. She also envisioned a shift in work dynamics where AI liberates humans from mundane tasks, allowing them to focus on solving significant global challenges, particularly in sustainability.

Gate One will be attending and sponsoring the AI & Big Data Expo Global, where they will share their ethos of meaningful AI and emphasize ethical and sustainable approaches. They will also discuss GenAI’s impact on marketing and experience design, offering valuable insights into the changing landscape of customer interactions and brand experiences.

As businesses navigate the evolving landscape of GenAI, Gate One stands at the forefront, advocating for responsible, ethical, and sustainable practices to ensure a brighter and more impactful future for businesses and society.
