Disclaimer: I am writing this piece with my own human-intelligence. hehe. training my own-human-intelligence still….loading… maybe… version3.0

So, key question : How’s our life has changed with ChatGPT?
What are the key observations you had and implications of applying ChatGPT in your own personal and professional life?

Honestly, sometimes, I feel like I am cheating while what I did was copy and paste :P

I am pretty sure we could not stop by trying it in so many different ways right to interact with ChatGPT, maybe you have trained your ChatGPT to become your best friend, coach, therapist or assistant. What is the best word you will use to describe ChatGPT’s role in your life right now?

When I first to get to know about this, I remembered while I was walking at a park and I opened my Spotify and I was listening to a podcast from The Economist about an episode introducing what is generative language A.I. and etc, I remembered that podcast mentioned about how A.I. will then replaced many journalist jobs and etc etc…that kind of statistics and story goes on… and probably you and I have read tonnes of articles, captions, contents that is related to A.I…………..and yes, here we are — at one of the articles…

I am no tech-geek, I am no engineer, I am just a layman — understanding this tech in a layman-way and sharing my two cents… Hope you enjoy reading!

I came across this article written by a Professor from London School of Economics, LSE. about how Generative A.I. could enable us to be more productive and how to help us to work smarter and get more free time for ourselves.

“I’m very optimistic that we could increase productivity,” he said in an interview at a conference in Glasgow. “We could increase our well-being generally from work and we could take off more leisure. We could move to a four-day week easily.” Christopher Pissarides — a professor at the London School of Economics who specializes in the impact of automation on work

My question to you would be : If you would have given more free time (your-me-time), what would you plan to do with your life?

While many points of view (POV) coming from plainly — how if this tech going to replace jobs and etc, I think there will be more new jobs going to be emerged, there will be new ways of defining WORK.

So, coming back to when we have more free time while we learn how to train ChatGPT to be our assistant at work :

With my own-human-intelligence generating response …. ….

When you have more free time, when you are able to free up more of your me-time, you would be able to THINK better, clearer, do you agree?
You will be able to tap into your own faculty ot intelligence to ask better question, and spend time THINKING instead of busying. In a way, it is conditioning us to ask better questions to produce greater quality of human intelligence work! how amazing that would be!

And if some of us are addicted to work, if you don’t work, sometimes you feel that you are experiencing the sense of voidness, it will then somehow forced you to be creative with your life right? you will now have time or the access of know-how to learn many new things! you would want to fill up your daily activity with even more meaningful activity! that means — it is opening up more doors for you to learn and live a more purposeful and meaningful life!

What does it means for us moving forward with the democratising access of A.I. system to us all :

I think we can truly be the soulful human beings moving forward. Because we gotta ask ourselves a lot of hard questions — such as meaning of our life, and meaning of our self-identity!

I think the evolution of current A.I. have made us human to think better, sharper, more critical than ever! we have to really ask the critical of the critical questions to make sure we find out the truth of the questions or problems we are working on.

It’s a reinforcing feedback loop here we are seeing from the lens of system dynamics. it will only reinforce us human to think better! It will made us to be more creative! to learn how to trust our intuition by co-working and co-developing with A.I. , A.I. has somehow taught us to think how to use them more effectively, isn’t it? if you think harder and more thoroughly — you might want to ask yourself how have you been trained by A.I so far? have you become more critical in asking questions? have you become more analytical? Did A.I. trained you to be sharper?

I can see how this technology revolution will push us mankind right now to be even more intelligent.

Never forget that human intelligence has created artificial intelligence! We, the human intelligence feed and train them with datas and styles that we want them to response. What they did for us is to help us identify patterns and make us make more informed decisions but it has no emotion attached… we, will still need to experience life as human-being, to learn lots of virtues and values (such as resilience, compassion, self-love, forgiveness) through trial-errors and LIVING LIFE….

In my own point of view, or through my years of training my own human-intelligence, there are these few skills would become even more needed than ever!

Like it or not, you are going to to train yourself to outsmart the A.I. tools you are going to integrate in your work.

For examples, skills such as: time to upskill for sure (just some general thoughts of mine how you might want to consider)
- Thinking how to think: how to organise and articulate your thoughts accurately and precisely, how to practice on critical-thinking skills (how to be better at it?)
- How do you learn how to ask better questions — self-reflection skills
- Learning how to learn — how do you learn from your experience while interacting with A.I. Tools? this is crucial to make it relevant and applicable to your work or while you are leading others
- How to integrate? how do have the mental flexibility and dynamics to create, build, test, review, adjust and do it again.
- I think repurposing is important too, how to give meaning to what we are and what we do
- the list will go on (don’t ask ChatGPT ok… think for yourself, what skills do you think you will need to upskill now in your area of practice)

I am welcoming and inviting you to this train of thoughts and conversations!

Some interesting interaction I had with my ChatGPT :D

I couldn’t help myself but I am very curious how human beings have been interacting with A.I., not sure did anyone of you have asked ChatGPT this — but yeah, findings is undeniably, it shown that helping a lot with writing literacy, search function, brainstorming, we are training ChatGPT to be smarter, because ChatGPT is stirring the pot of “curiosity” of mankind with its wide accessibility. — Penny
So, have you been communicating clearly with your chatgpt? :P
See! we will then going to create more aspirations and inspirations for the world!
and we all have responsibility to train A.I. to be RIGHT for our future generation! so educating ourselves to interact with generative A.I. is crucial !
I am very concern about the ethical principle of A.I. !

My Final Thoughts based on my human-intelligence- generated response …. and will continue regenerating ….:

We will need to think harder and better to train and nurture our future generation of generative A.I. with care, with love, with so much more practical and collective wisdom of mankind.

We are going to up-skill and train ourselves the ability to teach, coach and educate our next generation with the emphasis of accountability, responsibility, compassions, empathy, love, inspiration, morality, moderation, balance, trust, acceptance and so much more values and virtues.

We are going to have all the time we have to sit back and think what is that one thing that I can contribute better in this world..

We are going to learn to love better …… to be continue…..

Drop me an email to share with me your thoughts about what do you think about how would you use A.I. in your work moving forward?
