On Monday, Ars Technica hosted our Ars Frontiers virtual conference. In our fifth panel, we covered “The Lightning Onset of AI—What Suddenly Changed?” The panel featured a conversation with Paige Bailey, lead product manager for Generative Models at Google DeepMind, and Haiyan Zhang, general manager of Gaming AI at Xbox, moderated by Ars Technica’s AI reporter, Benj Edwards.

The panel originally streamed live, and you can now watch a recording of the entire event on YouTube. The “Lightning AI” part introduction begins at the 2:26:05 mark in the broadcast.
