Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been hailed as one of humanity’s most valuable inventions. It has already demonstrated its potential to combat climate change and contribute to the development of fusion technology. With the advancements in AI, it is expected to play an even bigger role in our lives in the future – from teaching our children to providing us with personalized digital assistants. But how can we utilize AI to improve our lives today?
Unbeknownst to many, we have already been benefiting from AI in various ways. Ride-sharing apps like Uber and virtual assistants like Alexa have been utilizing AI for years. However, with the emergence of generative AIs – technology that can produce text, video, images, and other content based on prompts – there are even more opportunities to leverage this technology for our convenience. “There’s immense potential for everyday individuals to utilize AI,” says Irena Cronin, CEO of Infinite Retina, a research consultancy specializing in generative AI.
One way to integrate AI into our daily routines is by observing how businesses employ AI to enhance productivity and tailor it to our specific needs. For instance, if you find yourself struggling to compose a difficult email to your landlord, you can turn to generative AI for assistance. These AI models excel at providing concise and emotion-free responses to factual matters. Christina Philippe, a senior digital strategist at Ogilvy in Germany, has been outsourcing such tasks to ChatGPT, providing a list of issues and desired remedies with favorable results.
