Is AI Making Us Smart or Dumb?

🤷‍♂️ What’s Going On: 

This podcast episode is all about AI and how it's impacting our lives, from coding to financial institutions to customer service. Piotr and Jordan talk about the pros and cons of AI and how it's affecting our intelligence.

If you want to hear more about it, check out today’s episode.

🫵 Why It Matters To You: 

AI is making our lives more efficient and can assist us in problem-solving.

Although many companies have been cautious about using AI, major corporations like American Express have announced that they will be using generative AI in their customer service.

Whether you’re on the receiving end or using AI firsthand, we all can learn a thing or two to make our AI interactions more impactful.

Now that you know what’s going on, here’s how to leverage it

🦾 How You Can Leverage: 

🎙️ Today's podcast is all about AI’s impact on the way we work and think

So what’s it all mean? Here are five things you need to know:

1️⃣ Start embracing AI: AI is no longer sci-fi technology, it's in our everyday lives. Whether you're in finance, customer service, or software development, AI is revolutionizing the way we work. Listen to Piotr's insights on how AI is transforming the financial industry and keep an open mind about incorporating AI into your own profession. 💰

2️⃣ Be aware of biases: AI is only as good as the data it's fed. But what happens if that data is biased? Keep this in mind: we need to be careful of biased AI systems. Remember to hold AI accountable and make sure it's inclusive and reflective of different voices. Here’s one example of how AI can affect recruitment. 📢

3️⃣ Use AI as a tool, not a crutch: AI can solve problems quickly and efficiently. However, don't let it take away from the learning process. Jordan reminds us that it's important to understand the information we're working with before relying solely on AI to solve problems. See how artificial intelligence can inform decision-making. 🛠️

4️⃣ Keep an eye on the industry: AI is constantly evolving and it's important to keep up with the latest developments. Check out Microsoft's Copilot system and American Express's generative AI, as discussed in today's podcast, to see how AI is being integrated into different industries. 👀

5️⃣ Don't fear the robots: Yes, some top AI researchers and CEOs have warned about the risks of AI, but that doesn't mean we should fear it. As Piotr states, we should only allow robots to take over if we let them. So embrace AI and use it to your advantage, instead of fearing it! 😁

Hope this helps you navigate the world of AI! 🚀
