Understandably, a lot of people are wary of artificial intelligence.

That is probably because we don’t understand it, we worry about it replacing human workers, wrestle with the ethical concerns, are concerned about the erosion of important skills in our students, not to mention the existential fears of AI surpassing human intelligence.

All of those are valid things to study, consider and discuss. That said, I want to challenge you to think about how AI, specifically ChatGPT, can make your life easier.

On today's episode of the Private School Leader Podcast, we are going to discuss 6 Ways That AI Can Help You Do Your Job

Thanks for listening!
