This Week in Enterprise:

Critics assail the many downsides of AI, but will they have any impact?

Has the trough of disillusionment arrived for generative artificial intelligence? Maybe it’s a bit early given continuing outright hype and breathtaking funding — but there’s certainly rising worry and criticism of actual and potential impacts, even sometimes from the AI model builders themselves.

We saw a lot of that this week, from accusations that Israel uses AI to target people for bombing in Gaza to Anthropic researchers finding it’s possible to “jailbreak” AI models to do bad stuff. Still, that’s not slowing things down, as OpenAI continued to offer new models and services and the likes of Hailo and SiMa.AI got big funding for their AI chips.

Layoffs also continued this week from Amazon Web Services and even Apple as they cut once-hyped projects, though Apple may have a new bet on robots. And venture capital hit a five-year low. But there were glimmers of hope that the VC and startup ecosystem could see a revival as Rubrik filed to go public.

Watch for our coverage of Google Cloud Next starting Tuesday morning in Las Vegas, where we’ll be onsite and perhaps find out if reports that Alphabet is looking at buying Hubspot for a stunning $35 billion pan out.
