AI is here to stay. It is going to help us in many ways, and make life better for us. Unfortunately as we learn to use it, we are now also misusing it in many ways. Do you notice some social media personalities who post very consistently and write long, comprehensive articles? They churn these out regularly, and after a while, you realise it is mostly the same content. You realise you are not reading a social media post, just a generic advertisement.
I recently had a WhatsApp conversation with a person who found me through a community of business owners. At first I was curious about how he found me and how we could potentially collaborate. However I quickly realised I was talking to an AI bot which had probably scoured some database and found my name amongst many others, and blasted messages to a large group of people to initiate such conversations.
When we use AI, we have to keep in mind the value we want to create. If what we use it to create is of little value, then we are wasting other people's time. In our busyness and pursuit of efficiency and time-saving, never lose sight of value.
