On September 29, François Sorel hosted a discussion on the Tech & Co program, a daily show on BFM Business, featuring several guests from the technology and media sectors. Among them were Julien Villeret, director of innovation at EDF, a major French energy company; Bruno Guglielminetti, a journalist and host of Mon Carnet de l'actualité numérique, a digital news podcast; and Stan Larroque, operations director at Parrot, a drone manufacturer, and founder of Lynx, a tech startup. The conversation centered on recent developments in artificial intelligence, including OpenAI’s decision to halt the launch of its next-generation language model, GPT-6.1, and Nvidia’s introduction of a new platform designed to manage and control AI agents more effectively.
OpenAI, a leading developer of AI technologies, had previously announced plans for GPT-6.1, which would be an advanced version of its widely used GPT series. However, the company has since decided to delay or potentially cancel the release, citing the need for further research and ethical considerations. This decision has sparked discussions about the pace of AI development and the challenges of ensuring safety and reliability in increasingly powerful systems.
In contrast, Nvidia, a major manufacturer of computer processors and AI-related hardware, has taken a different approach by launching a platform that allows users to maintain greater control over AI agents. This platform is designed to help organizations manage AI systems more securely, ensuring they operate within predefined parameters. Such tools are becoming increasingly important as AI is integrated into more aspects of business, research, and daily life.
Tech & Co is a regular feature on BFM Business, broadcasting Monday through Thursday. The show is also available as a podcast, allowing listeners to catch up on the latest developments in technology and innovation at their convenience.
