Deloitte’s Big Bets On Google Generative AI, ‘Proactive’ Workforce Transformation

“[Generative AI] feels like an evolution that has not happened before in terms of the scope, but also the pace at which things are moving. The capabilities of the technology are real,” said Deloitte’s Gopal Srinivasan.

Is generative AI a true market game-changer or just hype and vaporware?
I’ve become three-times as busy as I was at the beginning of the year because of discussions we’re having around generative AI. So one part of me wants to say that, ‘I hope it doesn’t get any more busier than this.’
But the reality is, I’ve been in this industry for well over 20 years. I have seen at least three big shifts in terms of what happened with mobile, cloud and now with generative AI. But this feels like an evolution that has not happened before in terms of the scope, but also the pace at which things are moving. The capabilities of the technology are real.
I think a lot of people ask, ‘How much of this is just vaporware, and in six months from now, is the hype going to die down?’ But here, this time, the capabilities are real.
The way it has resonated with people is why you’re seeing this kind of interest and just [a] broader acceptance narrative in society. Things are only going to get busier from here. I wish there were more than 24 hours in a day.
