Truth be told I have a love hate relationship with having AI.
on one hand it's an excellent tool or information and for feedback as well as a personalized coach it's really good at bouncing ideas off of you and giving you suggestions based on that also really good because it's quick it's free for most part at least for very basic ones and I think a lot of people can benefit from it because it's it will cut down on the amount of Labor and Manpower for people to kind of get very basic ideas in generation it will save up on a lot of time from what was merely hours of work to do to maybe minutes and from days to hours.
on the other hand we are getting a massive amount of really cheap low quality information online that is just three copies of the same thing and at some point it's sort of just a very low effort production line of of course stuff and this kind of leads to sort of the Dead internet Theory which kind of states is like because of the rise of AI there is less human interactions that are being made less genuine conversations about these ideas and because of that even if AI is being more prevalent the tool is no longer being used to benefit people there's also a lot of ethical issues as well like where AI may be taking some of this information from from sources that need to be credited. Something that I and the vast mounted information of a llm simply cannot do and therefore actually crediting those the right people may not be realistic.There's also the issue of People kind of being scared of losing their jobs to Ai and at no fault to them which is kind of tragic
I think it's a really important thing to kind of talk about a little bit more deeply because like it or not AI is more or less here to stay that said I will kind of give my insights on this issue and what we can kind of do to kind of use it to the best of our ability.
the first is that when we talk about being a Time Savers that that doesn't necessarily mean you have to you replace everything we Can simply use it for removing the monotonous tasks that you simply hate obviously AI can't do everything but it can be really good at really simple tasks that you assign it toIt's also really good at being a teacher or something that maybe doesn't exist for example I remember trying to work on a specific system for an automation task and there are no guides for that but AI is really good at kind of piecing together ideas from numerous people and then tried to build a custom guide for it's not perfect by me any means but it wasn't it was really good enough that I could figure out and if I had it questions it could kind of walk through it
There are some things I would suggest to keep in mind as we work with AI
the other thing to kind of think about is that it's an extension of yourself for example you can use it to search really quickly of ideas and Concepts that might take you hours for you if you don't really know where to start at for example if you're starting out with diets or workouts there is a billion of them on the Internet which one the best you can AI can maybe help you with that as not necessarily to do the right workout or meal plan for you but it can push you towards the right ideas whereas doing oil on your own can be hard especially if you don't have a coach or teacher readily available to you
everything is because it's an extension make sure that you don't rely on it even as accurate as it is and same thing goes with like the internet don't blind you trust it make sure that that you trust it but verify that this information is correct. this is sort of still why I even with AI I still try to use Google to kind of just make sure as a it's more of like a second opinion rather than the only opinion. Remember it's really important that you continue to invest in yourself despite AI.Make sure that you're always in control not the AI controlling you because if AI is controlling you that's the equivalent of saying that you're letting other people walk on top of you the only difference is that it's just a machine and not a person this time.
At least with something like writing it's really important just to Simply credit people that's not even an AI issue that's a literature issue that's a writing problem that's been around for probably centuries that you need to make sure that you credit the right people otherwise you could be accused of plagiarism so as much as possible make sure that you have references and towards people of your ideas and don't claim them as your own
finally you want to use it just to better the people around you right because at the end of the day it's not just about making money it's not just about proving on workflow and efficiency it's about bettering the people as a society that revolves around them it's important to respect the tools and techniques of Ages past but also to embrace the new ones as changes and improvements come.
Even with AI you should still try to learn the Fundamentals of what it is you're trying to learn it's not a silver bullet can't solve everything for you and at some point you have to do it yourself
