AI Revolutionizes Business Landscape in Utah: Entrepreneur Hits Success in Days
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping various sectors in Utah, from government policy to education. Local entrepreneur Jon Cheney recently demonstrated the technology’s potential by launching a six-figure business, "GenAIPI," within just a few days. Cheney challenged himself to create a profitable enterprise rapidly and successfully secured a $15,000 contract shortly after launching.
“I thought, ‘I need to build something where I can maybe help teach people about AI,’” Cheney stated, emphasizing the necessity for businesses to understand AI’s impact. He designed GenAIPI to assess employee knowledge of AI and provide tailored training.
Hope Fagler, strategic team lead at Utah Valley University, acknowledged the rapid growth of AI, noting its capacity to revolutionize industries while also raising concerns about its use. "AI is really good at some things, and really not good at other things," she commented, highlighting the importance of understanding its limitations.
As AI continues to evolve, the emphasis will be on identifying practical applications while balancing potential risks and benefits in the long run. Cheney’s success story showcases how quickly AI can be harnessed for entrepreneurial endeavors in modern Utah.
