What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the term “artificial intelligence“?
Do you think of generative AI tools like ChatGPT? Do you think of robots taking over the world, like some bleak science fiction movie? Or do you think of something more mundane that you interact with everyday, like autocorrect?
Love it or hate it, AI is here to stay.
AI has become so embedded into our daily lives that most of us probably don’t even notice that we’re using it! Things like Alexa, Siri, voice dictation, and spellcheck are all examples of AI tools we’ve come to rely on.
And yes, there are many valid reasons to be skeptical and critical of AI, but when used strategically, it can be an extremely useful tool in helping future-ready leaders manage change. Here’s how:
1. Making accurate predictions. You can’t see into the future, but by mining data sets, AI can identify patterns and make predictions.
2. Saving mental energy. Experiencing mental fatigue from decision making? AI can help take that load off your shoulders.
3. Minimizing complexities. Using AI to perform a full analysis based on your inputs is another way to lighten your mental load.
4. Elevating efficiencies. Your time and your team’s time is valuable. Using AI to automate routine tasks can give you some of that time back to focus on the really important things.
