Happy Friday my friend!
Many business owners I've spoken with recently have been fascinated to hear about the game-changing implications Generative AI (ChatGPT, DALL-E 2, etc.) will have on almost every job function we have. The emergence of this technology has been considered Code Red for Google and Microsoft recently announced that they may invest $10 Billion in OpenAI.
There is a sense of urgency here to get up to speed, but don't take my word for it, here is what Darren Hardy had to say about Generative AI:
The advent of Generative AI is bigger than the invention of the Gutenberg Press x 1000. No joke. And we are only at the very beginning.
It is important that all our leaders start familiarizing themselves with these tools... so they can learn to APPLY them and USE them... versus being sidelined by them. This is not a threat; this is an opportunity!
It's like the difference between a human WITH the internet (and all the applications built on top of it) at their disposal... versus one without it. One will be left in the "Dark Ages,"... and the other will be part of a new era of Enlightenment. Again, not joking, not hyperbole.
AI won’t eliminate all humans… But it will eliminate humans who don’t use AI.
It's not how AI makes things better for business leaders... It's what new capabilities AI will give business leaders.
