KEY TAKEAWAYS

AI as a Second Brain: Utilise AI tools like ChatGPT not just as a writing assistant but as a second brain that can help brainstorm ideas, generate content, and provide insights based on your expertise and input.

Creating AI Projects: Set up specific AI projects tailored to your needs. This involves organising relevant documents and providing clear instructions to the AI, which can enhance its ability to assist you effectively.

Continuous Learning: Embrace a mindset of continuous learning and adaptation. Regularly engage with AI tools, listen to podcasts, and explore new features to stay updated on the rapidly evolving landscape of AI technology.

Collaboration with AI: Approach AI as a collaborator rather than a replacement. By working alongside AI, you can enhance your creativity and efficiency, allowing it to handle repetitive tasks while you focus on strategic decision-making.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think it's really important that we ask our large language model... what your perspective is, or any stories related to an outcome that it's told you to write about." - Marnie


"AI content is expected. So I don't think that's an issue, but I think you would probably agree, you don't want to read boring AI stuff all the time."

- Marnie

"I think learning from someone who is a true expert, who can like sort of be ahead of that curve kind of thing, is just so valuable." - Susan
