+GENERATIVE AI:Fall 2023For professional investors only.All investments involve risk,including possible loss of capital.OUTFRONTFINDING THE COMPETITIVE EDGE AMID CREATIVE DESTRUCTION2 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMThe rapid explosion of generative AI for general use has captured the global imagination with what the technology might enable.Its expected to have a profound impact on economic growth by exponentially increasing productivity.Thats because everything today from culture to consumer products is a product of intelligence.If the excitement around generative AI proves justified,it may unleash the biggest wave yet of what Joseph Schumpeter,the famed Austrian economist,termed“creative destruction.”AI innovation will refresh the economy by destroying traditional businesses,replacing them with something more productive.For investors,though,the key question is:If generative AI chatbots quickly commoditize intelligence,where will competitive advantage lie in a world of endemic

2 SUSTAINABLE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE IN AN AI WORLD11 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMCHAPTER 2 SUSTAINABLE COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE IN AN AI WORLDIn a world where all businesses have access to generative AI,how do you sustain competitive advantage?The technology looks likely to disrupt,or at least dilute,many existing economic moats the characteristics of a business that protect it from competition and maintain its profit margins.AI could reshape entire industries and create completely new ones.Some investors argue that the big tech companies generative AI models are becoming increasingly commoditized and may be outcompeted by smaller open-source models and the first quasi-autonomous agents may be developed by nimble start-ups.After all,the large language models used by chatbots like ChatGPT are available to everyone.In a generative AI world,two new sources of competitive advantage are emerging the quality of your data and the quality of your people,especially those with advanced AI skills.Turning first to data,long-term advantages can come from how a business fine-tunes its large language models.12 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMOne of the reasons that data is very critical to artificial intelligence,and machine learning in general,is that the models themselves are useless without data.There are sometimes trillions of parameters that need to be estimated,and unless you have enough data to train the models,the output is not going to be useful at all.So data is really critical and people and firms that have large amounts of proprietary data are going to be at a clear advantage in this space.”GEORGE PATTERSON Chief Investment Officer,PGIM Quantitative Solutions13 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMSometimes the data doesnt need to be proprietary just very hard to gather.If,for example,you wanted to use an AI program to automatically identify building materials from photographic images,you would need to take photos of hundreds of thousands of structures and map those structures to the relevant building materials,according to Deloitte.Most of the work in building the AI program would go into gathering and organizing the data.Its not proprietary but the scale of the effort involved acts as a barrier to entry.Source:Deloitte,2023Turning to people,employees with AI skills who can help a business fine-tune data or integrate AI into its processes can also create a competitive advantage.The U.S.saw nearly 800,000 AI-related job openings in 2022,according to the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligences 2023 AI Index Report.And in March 2023,LinkedIn reported that there were just over 100,000 jobs on its site that mentioned artificial intelligence in the job description.Cost to fine-tune a large language model to complete a complex legal classification according to a model by Snorkel AI that equips organizations to build AI models.Such an application could save hours of a lawyers time,which can cost up to$500 per hour.Fine-tuning data for an existing open-source or paid model is inexpensive.$1,915-$7,418Source:Boston Consulting Group,March 202314 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMOf course,AI will not breach all traditional economic moats.For example,a company that exists in a business where the start-up costs are prohibitive for new entrants would have a formidable competitive advantage.Similarly,a pharmaceutical company with a patent for a miracle drug would still benefit from the exclusive right to market the drug.Source:Lightcast,2022|Chart:2023 AI Index ReportAI Job Postings(%of All Job Postings)by Geographic Area,2014-222.05%,United

lot of data,its likely that these big tech firms will only grow bigger,more powerful with fewer employees.They can do the same work with fewer employees because they use the same technology.So they will become leaner and smaller,but also a lot more powerful.And then on the other end,we have the open-source approach.That might also be a company coming from left field.So its very difficult to see where this will go.”MARK VAN RIJMENAM Strategic futuristCHAPTER 3 WHICH COUNTRIES ARE GAINING COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE?17 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMCHAPTER 3 WHICH COUNTRIES ARE GAINING COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE?If investment in AI leads to competitive advantage,then the U.S.is far ahead of even China,its nearest rival in the race to become leader.In 2022,the$47.4 billion invested by the U.S.was roughly 3.5 times the amount invested by the next highest country,China,and 11 times the amount invested by the U.K.Notably,all of the big generative AI releases have come from the U.S.Source:NetBase

KingdomIndiaChinaUnited States18 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMTheres no question that the initial breakthroughs and the current leadership as of 2023 in generative AI technology is really with the U.S.Why?In part,when you look at some of the other biggest players in the world that are trying to compete,for instance,for some of the Chinese launch language models,there is far less Internet data in Chinese language.So unless they want to build their launch language models in English,theyre starting off with a linguistical disadvantage and a volume disadvantage in the amount of data available to train their models.“And then there is more likelihood of intrusion and heavy-handed regulation in a country like China than there would be in the U.S.But of course,its contingent on regulation being able to strike a good balance between protecting the public but allowing the development of this very powerful new technology.”RAJ SHANTManaging Director,Jennison Associates19 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMHowever,there are areas where China pulls ahead.For instance,China dominates industrial robot installations,enabled by AI to collaborate with humans in factories.In 2021,China installed more industrial robots than the rest of the world combined.Whats more,its citizens are among those who feel most positively about AI products and services.A 2022 IPSOS survey found that 78%of Chinese respondents agreed with the statement that products and services using AI have more benefits than drawbacks.By contrast,only 35%of Americans agreed that products and services using AI have more benefits than drawbacks.Source:Ipsos,January 2022Positive Sentiment Toward Products and Services Using AI by CountrySource:Ipsos20 GENERATIVE AI|PGIM300 MILLIONEstimated number of jobs lost to AI over a 10-year periodSource:Goldman Sachs,April 2023The potential for AI to replace humans in the workforce inspired a UK-based think tank called Onward to advocate for a shift in the burden of taxation from labor to capital.Source:ONWARD,May 2023Developed countries are likely to adopt generative AI fastest because wages are highest and so they have most incentive,according to McKinsey.But this will only feed into productivity gains if displaced workers find new activities with at least the same economic output.CHAPTER 4 POSSIBLE DRAGS TO DISRUPTIONCHAPTER 4 POSSIBLE DRAGS TO DISRUPTIONOf course,the huge excitement around generative AIs potential is as yet untested.There are many reasons why the future of generative AI may not prove as revolutionary as supposed.ChatGPT does not have an IQ in the traditional sense.IQ is a measure of human intelligence,which is assessed through various tests that evaluate cognitive abilities such as reasoning,problem-solving and critical thinking.As an AI language model,ChatGPT doesnt possess human-like intelligence or consciousness.Its performance is primarily based on pattern recognition and statistical analysis of text data from a wide range of sources.While ChatGPT can generate responses that may appear intelligent,it does not have a personal IQ score as it lacks subjective experience and self-awareness.”CHATGPTChat Generative Pre-Trained TransformerWhat is your IQ?Most important is the technologys limitations.Ask ChatGPT what its IQ is and it answers the following:24 GENERATIVE AI|PGIMTurning to specific problems,its fair to say that generative AI has an intellectual property problem.Theres a flurry of lawsuits accusing generative AI companies of breaching copyright.Among them,three artists have sued Stability AI,Midjourney and DeviantArt in San Francisco for alleged unauthorized copying of their work to train their systems.Whats more,amid existential fears about machine super-intelligence and job losses,there is regula
