Jeff McMillan: How Morgan Stanley deploys AI at scale

About this episode

Jeff McMillan discusses how Morgan Stanley implements AI at scale and shares insights for corporate leaders.

What does it take to deliver AI at scale in a traditional industry? Morgan Stanley, where Jeff McMillan is the Chief AI Officer, was a launch customer for GPT 4 and continues to innovate and invest in the space. His lessons on how to engage, how to start and how to scale AI - with tips on data, on leadership, on investment - will be of use to any corporate leader deploying AI at scale.  Jeff also gives us his unique perspective on the state of play on AI around the world based on the hundreds of meetings he has held at the most senior levels with business and governments. He has a front seat for the great industrial and geo-political race of our time and speaks luciidly on the opportunties and challenges facing global decision-makers in the Age of Intelligence.  Counter-intuitively he believes that industries which are already heavily regulated have an AI advantage. He argues that large global companies will have scale advantage from deploying AI. But capturing these opportunties requires action and Jeff is generous with his practical, hard-earned advice to leaders on how to get going and how to scale.      See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy…
