How long will it be before artificial intelligence becomes so 'everyday', so embedded in what we do, that it is no longer newsworthy? Adam Riley and I discuss the role of the 'AI champion' in organisations, and whether we need to have a 'Chief Polymath'!!?

When ChatGPT hit the streets, Adam Riley and I realised the future for knowledge workers lay in acquiring the skills of the polymath thinker. In this post on our Substack - The Polymath Mind - we reflect on our 5 months into this exciting journey. https://t.co/E3NHGLPuAb

This is the second part of the latest article Adam Riley and I have written, published by @ESOMAR in its @ESOMAR Research World magazine. Here we lay out a model for the future of 'knowledge work' ... As ever, we welcome your views https://t.co/3rMLK37rhx

Here is the first of a two-part article that Adam Riley and I have just written in which we put forward a view of the future AI-shaped knowledge workplace…https://t.co/jgrjKlFp2C

[David Smith @DVLSmith]

Will AI come to our rescue as a social equaliser or will it be a polarising force and create massive social tension?
Have a look at our latest Substack article...

Adam Riley and I review the importance of good old fashioned data management and best practice as a platform for embracing new AI opportunities. It’s time to focus/re-focus on better managing your data and information! https://t.co/3mtZlJw5c3

[David Smith @DVLSmith]

Adam Riley and I wanted to share some thoughts on the folly of trying to predict the future of the AI-shaped workplace, and instead share the joy of scenario planning and how we might consider what our possible future(s) might plausibly look like.

Adam Riley and I had the pleasure of presenting at the Association for Survey Computing (ASC) conference on the 22 November. Here is a voiced-over version of that presentation - 30 mins long. Do get in touch! We are always up for the debate. https://t.co/ND1OwBOUwt

[David Smith @DVLSmith]

We have been considering 'what next in AI' and its implications. Whether or not we (as a society) ever achieve AGI, just the journey towards it will be hugely impactful and redefine the human-technology relationship.
