Tons of headlines are declaring a decrease in ChatGPT usage

Some even venturing to question if generative AI is a fad

I'm spending 80+ hours a week working on this problem. And let me tell you the actual issue --

AI still has a major usability problem.

Most people are still grappling with how to leverage tools like ChatGPT/LLMs/Generative AI.

Everyone's waiting for someone to tell them some secret killer use case. (which btw is extremely extremely person- and work-dependent)

And we're left with a lot of people questioning the practicality.

But these clickbait articles fail to name the underlying issue:

It's not that these tools are "not useful"...
They actually just have major usability problems.

I've always thought that when a product becomes labeled as a 'skill' on resumes, it's actually highlighting limitations in usability. Photoshop, Excel, Facebook Ads Manager—all are skills.

Today, "AI adoption" is most definitely a skill.

It probably takes 100+ hours to hit the tipping point where it becomes 2nd nature to integrate it into your daily work and life.

Even though ChatGPT made AI incredibly accessible, there's still a significant ramp up period to where the real value is.

To find your breakthrough use cases, you're going to either have to put in the work... or wait until it's so mainstream and the usability is more solved.

(Note: at that point, there's less of an advantage)

I think ChatGPT et al has 2x'd at least the pace of building and operating our business. (And I'm working on getting it to 3-4x)

But that takes work. And until the usability problem is solved, it will still be a skill.

🚨 Trump ou Biden ? Et si l'élection de 2024 était décidée par le... vaccin COVID-19 ?

- Une étude de Yale révèle pour la première fois l'ampleur de la différence du nombre de décès entre électeurs démocrates et républicains suite à l'introduction du vaccin COVID-19

- Les chercheurs ont étudié 538 000 décès entre mars 2020 et décembre 2021 en Ohio et en Floride, 2 États républicains.

- Le refus de se vacciner a entrainé un excès de décès 43% plus grand chez les électeurs républicains que chez les démocrates.

- Ce sont les comtés pro-Trump qui ont été le plus touchés. Ce sont ceux aussi où le refus du vaccin a été le plus fort.

- D'après une étude data de NBC, les mêmes proportions se retrouvent dans l'ensemble du pays.

- La propagande anti-vax propagée sur les réseaux sociaux et les médias GOP a donc entrainé un excès de décès parmi les rangs MAGA.

- Au delà de l'Ohio et de la Floride, 3 États clés (Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin) ont été touchés par ce surplus de décès chez les républicains

- En 2020, l'élection dans ces trois États s'est jouée à quelques dizaines de milliers de voix .

- Pour gagner en 2024, Trump (ou le candidat GOP) a besoin de remporter ces États. Mais l'on sait désormais qu'une partie de son électorat est décédée, trompée par la propagande anti-vax.
