"By far, the greatest danger of AI is that people conclude too early that they understand it"
(quote is not mine)
I had a journey in the past 6 months.
![Using AI regularly and experimenting with it makes it an anchor of our lives](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a073d1_ba3104a7a929460c8003c5ce4fec1b83~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_980,h_662,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto/a073d1_ba3104a7a929460c8003c5ce4fec1b83~mv2.jpg)
Here is what I understood so far:
AI in the workplace isn’t:
❌ Replacing all human jobs entirely
❌ Infallible or without any errors
❌ Goes without human inputs
❌ Ultimate decision maker
❌ A threat to creativity
But, it is:
✅ A catalyst for innovation
✅ A tool to increase productivity
✅ An augmentation of human skills
✅ A means to automate repetitive tasks
✅ Enables humans to focus on strategic roles
I learnt that AI is for non-techies too - for them (us) it's even more impactful, than for the techies. I am learning to get ready for the scale of use within 24 months.
(Haven't read the Gates Notes yet?)
I like to ask these questions to myself:
1. What do I hate doing? Because it's boring. Repetitive.
2. What do I like doing but it's difficult to start?
3. What's available to use at my work?
4. What's worth trying privately?
5. What do I need to understand better? (longest answer)
AI tools have become the anchor ⚓of my life.
(hence the photo in the background of us)
I let them sort my emails and other messages.
I run ideas with them like a sparring partner.
I let them schedule my action items.
I ask them to ideate for my content.
But I am always in control.
Human touch on top 🛂
The future of work is a blend of human touch and AI efficiency.
What's your journey so far with AI in your work or private life?
