220. AI at Work: Clarify the Conversation


Listen Later

It's hard to keep track of all the conversations about AI in the workplace. So don't feel bad if you find yourself getting overwhelmed or lost in it all.


I recently listened to an interview with Karen Hao, an award-winning journalist and author of the book Empire of AI.


One thing she said that I wanted to share with you is:

“AI is such an interesting word because it’s sort of like the word transportation in that you have bicycles, you have gas guzzling trucks, you have rocket ships. They're all forms of transportation, but they all serve different purposes and they have different cost-benefit trade-offs."


It's a good reminder. When you're thinking about AI in the work place, take a moment to clarify the conversation and what, specifically, people are talking about when they're talking about AI.


Listen to Karen Hao's interview on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.


What conversations are you having -- or not having -- about AI at work? Tell me in the comments, or message me on LI or my website.
