Enthusiastically navigating the AI landscape whilst embracing off-grid life in the DR

[Amaia Diaz @COS_Amaia]

A year in, $$$ spent, good talent gone, and still pitching 'revolutionary' vapor. How about less stage time, and more getting s**t done ?? ☺️ #fullofhotair #iwannabethestar #notbitter #justenjoyingtheshow

Less than 50% retention rate on AI hires in 6 months… Maybe time for someone, or someones, to get their heads out of the clouds (or elsewhere), self-reflect and rethink their strategy… #PeopleMatter #LeadershipFail #Wannabe #NotSoInspiring #LeadingVoiceOfNothing #FullOfHotAir

Turing once said it'd be possible to program a machine to answer questions indistinguishably from humans. Now, at Bletchley Park's he does just that! His vision's come full circle. What would he think of his own AI avatar I wonder? https://t.co/j11g3WDhDK

[Steven Isserlis @StevenIsserlis]

Alan Turing, b otd 1912 - he knew!
"I think it probable that at the end of the [20th] century it will be possible to programme a machine to answer questions in such a way that it will be extremely difficult to guess whether the answers are being given by a man or by the machine."

Google research: 61% of UK jobs could be radically transformed by AI. You read that right ..not replaced, transformed. It's time to stop worrying and start exploring how AI can supercharge your role. The future's bright for those who embrace change :-)

[Guardian Business @BusinessDesk]

AI could enhance almost two-thirds of British jobs, claims Google https://t.co/N0204UbmSf

[Amaia Diaz @COS_Amaia]

AI is evolving faster than we can understand its consequences, with just a handful of experts, if any, truly seeing the full picture. But is the future really as unsettling as this? Risk and reward go hand in hand. https://t.co/Rw0X9TH8mO

[Amaia Diaz @COS_Amaia]

MIT's MAIA (no relation 😉) is an AI that studies other AIs. It runs experiments to understand how they work, which could help make AI safer and fairer. Interesting approach to demystifying AI decision-making. https://t.co/xmEtMfsyf7

[Amaia Diaz @COS_Amaia]

Language should not be a barrier to the benefits of AI. Making generative AI accessible to all languages ensures everyone can participate in the tech revolution. Kudos to @LelapaAI for their efforts!

[The New York Times @nytimes]

The use of A.I. is exploding around the world, but the technology’s language models are primarily trained in English, leaving many speakers of other languages behind. https://t.co/aASrpNF8Uh

Just discovered @niceaunties and her #Auntieverse absolutely brilliant! Yes, she uses AI, but the human touch in creating those surreal, auntie-filled worlds with Tupperware skyscrapers and ramen spas is pure gold. For a guaranteed smile and giggle, give her a follow #AIart

Thank you @guardian newspaper for featuring the Auntieverse 🙏

AI's potential for growth is clear, even if the path isn't. @IgniteTech and @GFISoftware's approach is to integrate AI into everything we do, challenging every process, learning as we go. The real question isn't if AI will change your work, but how quickly you'll adapt.

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

I speak to a lot of people in major organizations & have noticed very few are seriously accounting for the possibility of continued AI improvement in their strategic planning.

I explore why that is & how to plan for the multiple possible futures of AI. https://t.co/lzuKGlcFuA

[Amaia Diaz @COS_Amaia]

AI might streamline our meetings, but here's a radical thought: what if we didn't need those features? Challenge for the week: scrutinise every meeting invite. Is it necessary? Who really needs to be there? What's the endgame? #WorkSmarter https://t.co/hDM6WARkp2

[Amaia Diaz @COS_Amaia]

‘AI doesn't 'see' like we thought. This affects how we should apply it in the real world and may need to update our approach to AI implementation
Visual’ AI models might not see anything at all https://t.co/4cZjaWMM8I via @techcrunch

LLMs as enabling technology, not end products. Evans' insight challenges us to think beyond raw AI capabilities to practical applications

[DeeDee Walsh ⛷🎿❄️ @ddskier]

Is AI summer over? ChatGPT's meteoric rise hasn't led to sustained user engagement. Enterprises experiment, but few deploy. This technology needs to find its product-market fit before changing the world. https://t.co/7wH8nQXUF3 via Benedict Evans @benedictevans #AI

[Amaia Diaz @COS_Amaia]

Should we be cultivating more 'devil's advocates' as AI becomes more prevalent in decision-making? Contrarian voices might be more valuable than ever.

Cherish the Least AI-Like people in Your Company

As we use AI more and more, we need more and more people who don't think like it.

"The AI with people skills" - An oxymoron or the future of AI? or just Claude's clever marketing? @AnthropicAI

[Robert Scoble @Scobleizer]

Heading to Prague and this ad from @AnthropicAI is right above entrance to security in the airport. Headed there to meet @SomniumSpace’s team who have had my favorite virtual world for years. Doing research for the next stage of metaverse/Spatial Computing for the work @IrenaCronin and I are doing.

Since I will be offline mostly until Tuesday I leave you with my now greatly improved tech industry lists: https://t.co/9eRY65x3IQ

I look at a lot of other people’s lists and no one is close for AI industry. 5,000 companies and 14,000 people, just in AI.

AI is revolutionising every aspect of our lives and is becoming an integral part of business strategy, driving innovation and efficiency. Forward-thinking leaders are embracing this shift. It's time to adapt "You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf”
