In a Surprise to No one, GenAI is not good at some tasks
Read More: In a Surprise to No one, GenAI is not good at some tasksIn a Surprise to No one, GenAI is not good at some tasks, knowing my experience with Generative AI large language models and their capability to date, it is not surprising to see the Australian government trial ended with a “not quite good enough” (linked).

Are you an MSP and want to ask a question about ‘how to’ with Microsoft Security? QR code for my WhatsApp group.
About me
I am passionate about Australian organisations improving their cyber security posture, where possible I want to help improve by sharing the questions that I am asked along with some answers, there are many cyber security experts who have a vast amount of knowledge to share, if I can help to aggregate some of this then it is achieving my objective to improve the security posture for all businesses.
I am a current member of AISA Australia (Melbourne), and though I am not a cyber security expert I am a Microsoft Cyber security Expert by certification. I am an enthusiast and continue to learn every day from every conversation I have.
