Ken Griffin, founder and CEO of Citadel, believes the hype around artificial intelligence could be overblown at this early stage.
"I do think the AI community is making a terrible mistake by being full of hype on the near-term implications of generative AI," Griffin said Tuesday during an event for Citadel's new class of interns in Fort Lauderdale, FL.
"I think they're actually doing everybody a huge disservice with the level of hype they are creating."
One industry that could see a material impact from AI is programming and software engineering, Griffin said.
"Programing is going be a big target for generative AI," Griffin said, asked by an intern about AI's impact on his business.
