From GPT-2 chatbot to GPT-5.3! In this milestone 100th episode of Mixture of Experts, host Tim Hwang is joined by Ritika Gunnar, Volkmar Uhlig and Kaoutar El Maghraoui, to explore how AI has evolved since episode 1. First, a homeowner uses ChatGPT to sell his house over realtor estimates—sparking debate about AI democratizing expertise versus replacing professionals. Next, we analyze a study revealing only 2.1% of scientists actively use Claude Code; what role does AI play in research? Finally, Adobe’s CFO Dan Dern transformed his finance team into an AI lab, using autonomous agents for forecasting, contract analysis and workflow automation. Our experts identify the three hottest areas for enterprise AI adoption.
