Technology has unlimited potential… it has been and will continue to be a catalyst for change and transformation. Sustained technological advancement is instrumental in creating forward leaps, both for humanity and for our planet. Examples could be: a new positive application of social media that delivers education to disadvantaged communities, or a bot designed to monitor global forests and their ecosystems.
However, there's also the negative impact of tech that we cannot fail to consider. For example, facial recognition software that encourages racial profiling or a new technology that's consuming natural resources with no consideration for the overall environmental impact.

Munkát vagy munkahelyet vesz el a BI és az MI a cégeknél? Robert Pinter
Előadás a Magyar Termék évadzáró üzleti reggelijén 2023. december 7-én.
Az előadás kulcs üzenetei voltak a kkv-döntéshozókból álló hallgatóság számára:
1. Az MI-ben tartós tavasz / akár nyár is várható, itt fog velünk maradni, érdemes felkészülni rá.
2. Vita van azzal kapcsolatban, hogy az MI munkát vagy munkahelyeket vesz-e inkább el – de a munka világa egész biztosan átalakul.
3. Az MI / BI ígérete az adatvezéreltség, ami egy hatékonyabb, versenyképesebb, ügyfélbarát és munkavállaló centrikus munkahely / cég létrehozása.
4. Az MI használatának alap feltétele, hogy megfelelő adatvagyonnal rendelkezzetek.
5. Az MI-t többféleképpen lehet használni. A kkv-k számára a SaaS MI megoldások a leggyorsabban és legolcsóbban kipróbálhatók.
6. A kollégáitokat be kell vonni az MI megoldások cégen belüli alkalmazásába, különben bizalmatlanok lesznek és szabotálni fogják azt.
Hogyan haladtuk meg az „elveszik-e a gépek a munkánkat” vitát?Robert Pinter
2023. november 29-én, szerdán rendezték a Pázmány Péter Katolikus Egyetemen az NMHH közreműködésével a „Teremtett világok – a mesterséges intelligencia, mint probléma és mint lehetőség – Konferencia a mesterséges intelligencia aktuális kérdéseiről” c. konferenciát. A rendezvényen Rab Árpád felkérésére a Mesterséges intelligencia és társadalom szekcióba kaptunk meghívást Vicsek Lillával közösen, ahol végül „Hogyan haladtuk meg az „elveszik-e a gépek a munkánkat” vitát?” címmel adtam elő. Az előadás a Visions on Artificial Intelligence and Society OTKA kutatási projektünk részeként készült irodalomkutatásra támaszkodott. Az MI és munka jövője kapcsán két fő nézőpontot emeltem ki: azokét, akik szerint az MI hasonló hatást gyakorol majd, mint az ipari forradalom, és azokét, akik utópikusan vagy disztópikusan látják a folyamatot, félve vagy ünnepelve a munkahelyek elvesztését. Az előadásban rámutattam arra, hogy az akadémiai viták egyre kevésbé fekete-fehér módon értelmezik az MI és a munka kapcsolatát. Az empirikus kutatások azt hangsúlyozzák, hogy a kulcskérdés nem a robotok munkahelyekre gyakorolt általános hatása, hanem az, hogy hogyan változik a munka természete az MI terjedésével, és milyen következményekkel jár a dolgozókra nézve. Az új szemlélet lehetőséget teremt az ember-gép interakció középpontba állítására a túlzottan nagy társadalmi jelenségek helyett, és az emberi munka nélkülözhetetlen szerepére hívja fel a figyelmet.
A mesterséges intelligencia fogalmától az értő felhasználáson át a bizalmi ké...Robert Pinter
Vajon egy magyar kkv cégvezető számára mit érdemes tudni a mesterséges intelligenciáról, hogyan tudja azt munkára fogni a saját cégében? Tegnap részben erről a témáról tartottam egy közel 40 perces előadást a Bizalmi Kör klubjában a 200–500 milliós árbevétellel rendelkező cégeket tömörítő tagozatban cégvezerőknek.
A mesterséges intelligencia megértéséhez a meghatározásán keresztül vezet az út. Valójában egy gyűjtőfogalomról van szó, ami alá számos dolog tartozik a gépi tanulástól kezdve a mélytanulásig. Jelenleg csak célra szabott, szűk MI-k léteznek (pl. fordításra, navigációra stb.), de a ChatGPT-ről ismert Open AI saját bevallása szerint már dolgozik az általános MI-n, ami idővel elvezethet az embernél okosabb szuperintelligenciához is.
Az MI alkalmazása napjainkban több féle lehet, leggyakrabban észrevétlen módon használjuk az eszközeinkben és a szoftvereinkben. A legtöbb kkv a dobozos, szoftver szolgáltatások (SaaS - Software-as-a-Service) révén képesek az MI-ben rejlő hatalmas potenciálok kiaknázására, bár lehetséges saját, személyre szabott fejlesztéseket is indítani. Utóbbihoz a digitalizációval kapcsolatos nyitottságra és elsősorban sok saját adatra van szükség, amin betanítható az MI-modell. Az MI-t már napjainkban is tucatnyi területen lehet felhasználni, a FutureTools AI katalógusa alapján több mint 2000 bárki számára elérhető MI alkalmazás létezik a világon. Pár, a hazai vállalkozások számára izgalmas use case-t röviden én is bemutattam az előadás során.
Az MI egyre szélesebb körű terjedése több szinten is felvet bizalommal kapcsolatos kérdéseket is: elhiszi-e a munkavállaló, hogy nem fogják gépekkel helyettesíteni; a deepfake terjedésével bízhatunk-e továbbra is az idegenekben vagy a médiában - hihetünk-e a saját érzékszerveinknek; az olyan emberi találmányaink, mint a vallás, a nemzetállam, a pénz vagy a vállalatok milyen kihívásokkal szembesülnek? Végül röviden kitértem arra is, hogy mit tesz az EU, az USA és az egyes kormányok, hogy az egyre fokozódó MI versenyfutás (AI race) közben humánus maradjon a világ.
Az előadás kulcs üzenetei:
- Az MI-t többféleképpen lehet használni. A kkv-k számára a SaaS MI megoldások a leggyorsabban és legolcsóbban kipróbálhatók.
- Az alkalmazottakat be kell vonni az MI megoldások cégen belüli alkalmazásába, különben bizalmatlanok lesznek és szabotálni fogják azt.
- Az MI-t megbízható módon kell fejleszteni, ebben az EU, az USA és további közel 30 ország egyetért egymással.
- Az AI race fokozódik, egyelőre úgy tűnik nem várható újabb MI-tél a közeljövőben.
Adatvezérelt (e)kereskedelem: csak beszélünk róla vagy csináljuk is?Robert Pinter
A 2023. október 18-i Simpletrends konferencia előadása az adatvezéreltségről (data-driven decision-making - DDDM).
Az előadás főbb gondolatai:
- az adatvezéreltség (DDDM: data-driven decision making) ígérete az adatvezérelt kapitalizmus, ahol a cégek hatékonyabban tudnak működni, a kollégák kevesebb felesleges munkát végeznek és a fogyasztók gyorsabban, jobb minőségű termékekhez és szolgáltatásokhoz férhetnek hozzá
- ugyanakkor ennek a fonákja a megfigyelési kapitalizmus (Shoshana Zuboff, harvardi szociálpszichológus fogalma), ahol egyre több cég megfigyel minket és ez alapján hoz döntéseket, fejleszt termékeket stb. - tehát az adataink, mi magunk is termékké válhatunk
- de visszatérve az adatvezérelt kapitalizmusra (tehát a pozitív oldalra) ezt igen nehéz jól csinálni, hiába neveznek ki cégek ezért felelős vezetőket (egy 2022-es kutatás szerint a nagy cégek 3/4-énél van ilyen pozíció, 40% szerint sikeres és csak 26% szerint működik a cég adatvezérelten)
- miért ilyen rossz ez az arány? Mert a DDDM nem az adatokról, a technológiáról szól, hanem a döntéshozás módjáról, ami szervezeti kultúrán múlik, ez pedig lassan változtatható (van, aki szerint 20-25 év is kell neki mire egy cég ténylegesen adatvezérelt módon tud működni, sokan megrekednek félúton) - hiszen Peter Drucker óta tudjuk, hogy a kultúra megeszi a stratégiát reggelire :-)
- mi a megoldás? A kuvaiti Gulf Bank szerint adat-nagykövetek kinevelése, alkalmazott adattudományi tréningek nyújtása a kollégáknak és a közös motiváció, hogy ezzel a szervezet inkább el tudja érni a célját (pl. egy kórházban az adatvezéreltebb működés gyorsabb gyógyulást, kevesebb halálesetet, meghosszabbított életet jelent a betegeknek - ezzel a céllal pedig mindenki azonosulni tud).
Mit tartogat a mesterséges intelligencia az e-business és a kereskedelem szám...Robert Pinter
Az FMCG Top 2023 júniusi konferenciáján elhangzott inspirációs előadás a mesterséges intelligencia jelenlegi és várható fejlettségéről az e-kereskedelem és e-business vonatkozásában. Az MI fogalmának meghatározásán túl konkrét példákat hozok arról, hogy már 2023-ban mire lehet használni az MI-t az e-kereskedelemben.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

name of part II is really justified here.
• First part was in March 2019 and
focused only on AI and work

4. SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIONISM OR
TECHNOLOGICAL DETERMINISM?
• The title Possible drastic social and economic consequences of
artificial intelligence suggests that AI defines society
• We usually see technology as a driving force in our lives (this is
the the so-called technological determinism)
• But technology is invented within society and used by
members of society. Hence, we may decide what we prefer, how
we regulate, what we support etc. (Science and Technology
Studies concentrates on the relation of technology and society,
there are scholars who state society construct technology.)
• Do not forget that we form technology and technology forms
us, this is a mutual relation – that is why we speak about AI. We
must decide what kind of AI we want, how we want to live &
cooperate with AI.

• Umbrella term
• Different types of AI from
machine learning to deep
learning
• Brain research and AI:
neural networks behind
the recent revolution
• History of AI since the mid-
1950s: AI winters and
springs
• Is summer close this time?

Narrow AI (ANI): past (e.g. chess, go,
Jeopardy) and present
General AI (AGI): near future? Superintelligence (ASI): if general AI
possible, there is a huge chance it may
become more intelligent than us
9. GENERAL PURPOSE
TECHNOLOGY (GPT)
• AI is not a single
technology with a certain
purpose, but general
purpose technology
• The whole economy and
society are affected
• (This GPT is not that GPT from
ChatGPT – Generative Pre-
Trained Transformer)

CHAT GPT
• the unexpected success
of ChatGPT, a beginning
of a new epoch from
November 2022
• Huge success in terms of
diffusion (100M+ users
in a few days)
• ”Magical” features but it
may hallucinate

13. PAUSE?
• An open letter in March
2023, signed by more
than 30k experts so far
• Advising a 6-month-
pause to AI that is more
developed than GPT-4
• A clear framework,
moral compass, ethical
guidelines and strict
regulations are
requested

14. PAUSE IS NOT
POSSIBLE DUE TO
THE AI RACE
• Different approaches of
Europe, USA and China
(described with only one
example each):
• Europe: regulation
first (forbidden,
tolerated and
supported AI use)
• China: social credit
system
• USA: innovation and
big tech companies

15. EMERGENT
FEATURES?
• ChatGPT is not the end, it
was only the first LLM
(Large Language Model)
application that reached
people / success and
became widely known
• 60 minutes – April 2023
(Google Bard): emergent
features – system reacted
in a way that is not
trained previously
• Important step to AGI
(system teaches itself)

16. AI AS A
”BLACK BOX”
• We cannot completely
explain how the most
developed AI works
(remember: Deep
Learning / neural
networks: AI finds its own
way in data)
• Critics: do not
overmystify AI

18. BIAS IN AI?
• AI may be trained on
biased data which lead to
injustice and misuse of AI
applications
• We know this
phenomenon for years

19. FAIR USE OF
CREATIVE HUMAN
WORK
• In September 2023:
”Seventeen top authors
led by the Authors Guild
have filed a lawsuit
against OpenAI, alleging
copyright infringement
through its ChatGPT
model” (Source)
• Hollywood actors and
were on strike in 2023,
because of the threat AI

21. DEEPFAKE AND
MANIPULATION
• We can fake real faces,

29. THIS TIME IS DIFFERENT
VS THIS TIME IS THE
SAME DEBATE
• Same as the industrial
revolution or completely
different?
29
Picture
30. THIS TIME IS THE SAME
• There are scholars who do not expect drastic changes in a
dystopian or utopian way from the diffusion of artificial
intelligence in the field of work
• Like in the industrial revolution, people will adapt to the new
kind of machines (artificial intelligence).
• AI will create new jobs meanwhile it is integrated into the
existing economic system and the maintenance and constant
development of it.
• At the same time completely new industries will also
appear thanks to AI
• While a substitution effect is expected in the short term,
in the long-term AI will create more jobs than it eliminates,
similar to the automation in industrial revolution
30
Picture
31. WILL ROBOTS TAKE OUR JOBS?
FROM PROFESSIONS TO
ACTIVITIES
• We thought a decade ago that certain jobs would
disappear
• Now we think that the activities will change within
professions
• So, it is not complete professions that will
disappear, but certain tasks, while people learn to
cooperate with intelligent machines
31
Picture
32. THIS TIME IS DIFFERENT
• Other scholars see the same process much more
darkly and argue that “this time it’s different
due to advances in particular technologies –
namely robotics, big data, and artificial
intelligence.” (Kelly, 2022: 3)
• These endanger not only routine, but also
non-routine professions as well.
• They assume that unlike in the industrial
revolution this time mass job losses are
inevitable.
• This approach has two directions:
• Techno-pessimists expect a dystopian future
• Techno-optimists expect a utopian future
32
Picture
33. DYSTOPIA: END OF WORK
• Techno-pessimists declare the ‘rise of the robots’, a
‘second machine age’
• They warn of a high-level permanent
unemployment and poverty for societies.
• Beside mass technological unemployment, there will
be tough competition over the jobs that remain for
humans, decreasing salaries, economic turbulences,
increasing inequality, weakening social cohesion
and further issues as a result from these trends
• End of work, starvation, incarceration, poverty,
inequality (like in the movie Elysium)
33
Picture
34. UTOPIA: DIGITAL
COMMUNISM?
• Techno-optimists expect a utopian
future and hope that full
automation will free workers
from the compulsion of work and
a post-work or post-capitalist
society may emerge.
• They assume that widespread
automation with universal basic
income (UBI) can emancipate
workers from the drudgery of work
• This may lead to a ‘Fully
Automated Luxury Communism’
which became in the recent years a
long-term vision of the political left
in the UK 34
Picture 1 & 2
35. AN OBSOLATE DEBATE
• The ‘this time is the same / different’ debate became increasingly
obsolete in the academic literature by the end of the 2010s, as it sees the
relationship between AI and the labour market in a rather black or white
way, i.e. it focuses only on whether machines will take our jobs or will certain
professions completely disappear.
• ”Will robots take our jobs” approach is still present in public discourses
as large international organizations continue to publish such materials (see
for example OECD Employment Outlooks ) and the media are still open to
publish similar calculations, even if these kinds of numbers simplify and
quantify a very complex phenomenon and their popularity based on
laymen’s fears of automation.
• Researchers must avoid any zero-sum game in replacement of humans by
machine, make a distinction between short and long-term effects, and
consider the complexity of human and machine relationship in
workplaces
35
36. HOW THE NATURE OF WORK CHANGES
WITH THE DIFFUSION OF AI
• According to recent empirical research, the main question is not
whether robots will take our jobs, but how the nature of work changes
with the diffusion of AI:
• what the employee’s bargaining position is like with the employer,
• how the gig economy and self-exploitation spreads,
• how employees are repressed
• and what are the consequences of automation in workplaces.
• One of the key results is the realization that automation does not
exist without the involvement of human labour.
36
37. FROM MACRO-LEVEL FOCUS TO MICRO
LEVEL HUMAN-COMPUTER-INTERACTION
• The relative devaluation of the ‘this time is the same / different’ debate can
be traced back to the fact that the scientific interpretation of the concept of
work is shifted from a broader approach to a narrower one.
• Participants in the debate perceive work as a key social institution and
concentrate on the macro-level political, social, and cultural
implications of automation.
• The more recent empirical research “looks more closely at the ways AI
technologies are being integrated into workplaces and the implications
this has for the organisation and experience of work from the perspective
of a deepening human–machine interaction.” (Boyd, 2021: 80).
• Scientific interest is increasingly turning towards human-machine-
interaction and instead of large social phenomena and expectations, it
seeks to empirically capture specific professions and workplace
changes.
• This gives us the opportunity to change our focus and to see the human in
automation. 37

AND MARKETING
COPYWRITERS
• Ongoing research (just
in the article writing
phase – Lilla Vicsek –

• Interviews with
Hungarian print-media
journalists and marketing
copywriters (15-15
interviews)
• Preliminary results are
available

39. RESULTS: LIBERATOR VS
DEVALUATOR
• GenAI for them is a liberator, for others a devaluator
• See the dangers, but do not think it applies to them
• GenAI is not analytical and not creative both
journalists and copywriters see these as added value
• Can be a threat to early career staff – juniors could be in
danger (however it may cause problems in the long run)
• Can add value in speed, brainstorming, linguistic
polishing
39
Picture
40. RESULTS: PLAN IS TO LEARN
AND ADAPT
• Cognitive dissonance reduction
• Cannot envision long-term future
• Others are affected, they are not
• They have their value in expertise and seniority
• GenAI is not reliable and not perfect do not take into
consideration that technology is not static, it is evolving
• Personal experience with the problems of GenAI is
generalized
• They are those who can adapt and learn quickly

42. BEING
PHYGITAL?
• Robots and AI are yet

yet present (except in
restricted areas e.g. in
special factories)

44. SUPERINTELLIGENCE
WITH OWN GOALS?
• Nick Bolstrom warns us to
do not build AGI as it
may turn to be
superintelligence with
its own goals, and we
cannot control it

45. ACCELERATION
AND SINGULARITY
• We are blind:
acceleration and
singularity in the
development of AI (Ray
Kurzweil)
• It is not possible the see
what will come if AI will
be more intelligent than
us
45
Picture
46. WE SIMPLY
DON’T KNOW...
• We simply don’t know the
Possible drastic social and
economic consequences
of artificial intelligence
• But we need to strive to
have responsible AI, that
is ethical, accountable
and explainable… in order
to have reliable and safe
AI
