Make Way for AI

AI has captured significant attention in recent months, and it's for good reason. Startups are emerging left and right, catering to various industries, while major companies are swiftly adopting AI to stay competitive. They are all striving to release their latest AI technologies, which are revolutionizing the way humans interact with software. In the first chapter of Surfing the Tsunami, author Todd Kelsey emphasizes the importance of caring about AI and actively staying informed about new advancements as they rapidly emerge.¹ And boy, are these advancements arriving fast. In 2023, there is an AI software available for almost every industry imaginable. From creating video and soundtrack content to copyrighting ads and blogs, developing medicine, and providing customer service support, AI has become a vast resource that is reshaping job performance.²

The rise of AI brings forth the question of which jobs will soon be replaced by this advanced software. Positions that were once believed to be jobs that “only a human can do,” as Kelsey highlights, are being confronted by AI automation software that can accurately and efficiently handle entire processes.¹ One of the most popular AI software tools today, ChatGPT, actively trains its system to understand and respond in a human-like manner to each question it receives.⁴ This effort ultimately aims to facilitate a smoother transition for the public as AI becomes a regular part of their lives. Evidence of this trend can be seen in the correlation between the Google Trends comparison of “artificial intelligence” and “ChatGPT” below.

As AI continues to reshape industries and revolutionize the way humans work, it becomes increasingly important to embrace this advancing technology and stay informed. By doing so, one can use the potential of AI to their advantage in a world that is constantly evolving.
