How is artificial intelligence (AI) changing our world?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly evolving technology which is set to affect every aspect of our daily lives. Will AI drive vehicles, diagnose dementia and cancer, write novels and beat us at our favourite games? Or is that future here already?

Following on from the discussion, Lirio Barros, a Consultant in Oxera’s digital practice shares how foundation models, one of the key elements underpinning generative AI, are evolving in tandem with digital sector regulation and competition policy, and what this means for policymakers and businesses in Europe and beyond.
