AI Integration

Open AI can be less overwhelming if you follow these 4 guidelines when integrating any technology into your business.

The pace of Chat GPT releases and the AI conversation the last few months can be overwhelming. Taking a step back from all the news, I am reminded that this is another piece of technology to integrate into our daily lives and organizational operations. While the impact may be greater than other past innovations, the integration process will be similar.

This the process I'm following to evaluate Open AI impacts to our organization (and in my personal life).

  1. Tune into the right channel.  Find the Signal in the noise. Beware of crypto influencers finding their next thing. Consider the adoption cycle of technology and where the technology is now: The promise > The disappointment > The realization.

  2. Remember the Serenity Prayer.  Assess what will impact your business. Identify what you have control over (ie internal changes), and what you don’t have control over (ie External).

  3. Seize the Day. How will you take advantage of the above opportunities and mitigate the risks?

  4. Repeat with your Heart. Ultimately, this will have an impact on people in your organization; professionally and personally. How will the changes be perceived, and what will the reaction be to the noise and the signals? How can we educate the people around us? What is the opportunity and the cost for all of us? What is our responsibility to those costs?

We should be overwhelmed, we are people after all! We also need to assess these changes faster than anything we are comfortable with or have done before. But let's remember to breathe and follow the core principles of what has worked in the past.
