DESCRIPTION:After nearly 20 years in data science\, from MLPs\, SVMs\, and 
 random forests to deep learning\, I’ve seen many “revolutions” come 
 and go. The current tectonic shift around GenAI and LLMs feels different f
 rom previous hype cycles. Even with some understanding how these things wo
 rk\, I am still blown away by the stream of stunning new capabilities. But
  they also introduce new kinds of risks that go far beyond technical perfo
 rmance. This talk offers a pragmatic\, experience-driven perspective on Ge
 nAI in industrial settings\, including supply chains and the emerging wave
  of AI agents. We’ll disentangle real opportunities from snake oil\, esp
 ecially where hype-driven promises meet senior management expectations. An
  anti-bullshit take on the possibilities ahead\, with honesty\, anecdotes\
 , and (for those who know me\, of course) a bit of humor.
