Generative AI (GenAI) saw widespread adoption in 2023 across text, visual and musical content. Research company GlobalData’s Social Media Analytics Platform analysed influencer discussions on X to reveal key themes within GenAI that are poised to define 2024.

Open-source models and LLM operating systems take centre stage

Influencers foresee 2024 as a revolutionary year for AI, marked by the rise of open-source AI models and large language model (LLM) operating systems, challenging established models like GPT-4.

This shift is expected to democratise access, fostering innovation across sectors and encouraging companies to adopt these technologies for heightened productivity.

However, influencers also highlight the challenges associated with this transition, emphasising the necessity to address ethical concerns and strengthen security measures.

Stringent AI regulations for ethical practices

Influencers emphasise the need for ethical regulations in 2024. The proliferation of open-source AI models and their applications across various sectors brings challenges, including data privacy and cybersecurity risks.

Hence, advocates call for responsible AI use through stringent regulations and guidelines by organisations and governments to mitigate potential risks.
