Rare Executives ’s Post

Exploring the Synergy of 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 and 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 Our discussion with Johan Duvenage and Hyram Serretta - MBA, MSc Eng. brought up a crucial perspective to the forefront: AI is not merely an 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗽𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲; it represents a distinct type of intelligence altogether. 𝗔𝗜 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗹𝗲, such as processing complex, multi-dimensional problems quickly and efficiently. Conversely, there are innate qualities and capabilities that are uniquely human. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. By 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗜'𝘀 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, we can create 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀. This synergy not only enhances decision-making but also redefines problem-solving in business and beyond. For plant managers and business leaders, understanding and leveraging this combined intelligence can lead to 𝘂𝗻𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 and 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Our human-centric approach allows us to understand the value of putting people first. Despite the rise of #4IR technologies such as #ArtificialIntelligence (AI), humans will always have an important contribution to make ✅ The latest episode of our #TechPeopleTalk podcast, featuring Johan Duvenage and Hyram Serretta - MBA, MSc Eng. from DataProphet, takes an in-depth look at how human intelligence and #ArtificialIntelligence can effectively work together 👀 #IAmJendamark #TechPeople #AI

74% of executives agree that #generativeai is enabling them to create new forms of value for their organisations, according to HFS Research. This is because #genai enables us to automate tasks that were previously un-automatable (is that a word?) Take our VUX World podcast as an example. Imagine uploading an mp3, or streaming the audio while recording, to a gen AI pipeline that transcribes, diarises and timestamps the audio, then generates the following: 📹 YouTube video description 🎙 Podcast show notes and description ✏ Title, meta description and body copy for podcast web page 📊 A list of topics covered in the podcast 📝 A blog article for each of the topics, based on the transcript 🖋 Titles and meta descriptions for each blog post 🏞 Images for each article and for the podcast episode 🤳 Social media post copy to promote the podcast episode and each of the blog articles 📨 Newsletter copy to promote podcast and articles in weekly newsletter Then, imagine all of this is pumped straight into your CRM, social media management and newsletter tools. This is a process that we follow today and it takes a good few days to do the above. This process would be executed in a matter of seconds, excluding editing and publishing time, which I reckon we could get down to half a day. Now imagine all those processes within an average business that are now, all of a sudden, able to be automated. #ai #artificialintelligence #aiadoption

If you want to get into the AI game, you need to be thinking about it like it is more than just a tool. Leveraging machine intelligence is a new way of operating, and we continue to observe that the companies who are getting the most value out of AI have (a) identified specific, game changing business problems that it will help them solve, and (b) changed the way they operate to maximize data fluidity, incentivize new behaviors, change accountability structures, and challenge conventional thinking. Scaled value creation only arrives when leaders have constructed an ecosystem for AI to thrive. There are a number of paths you can take, but they all begin with a committed executive team and true conviction about the need to change and invest. I had a lot of fun chatting with Jason Foster about these observations AND what we’re seeing from the current winners in AI adoption on the Hub & Spoken podcast this week. Give it a listen and let me know your thoughts! https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.phubs.la/Q02HXgmZ0

CEO Dario Amodei of Anthropic disclosed on the "In Good Company" podcast in late June that compute accounts for over 80% of their expenses. Does that mean running Anthropic costs $1B/year?👇 With approximately 600 employees and estimated average compensation of $250,000 (based on Glassdoor data), Anthropic's annual salary costs are around $150 million. Assuming 70% of compensation is cash, that's about $100 million in yearly cash salary expenses. If we estimate that salaries represent only 15% of total expenses (with 5% for other overhead), it suggests Anthropic's annual operating costs could be approaching $1 billion. This staggering figure contextualizes Anthropic's recent $7.3 billion fundraising efforts. It underscores the immense capital requirements for companies at the forefront of AI research and development. Key questions for our industry: 1) Is this level of spending sustainable in the long term? 2) How might this impact the competitive landscape in AI? 3) What strategies could reduce costs without compromising innovation?

Recommended reading for LEADERS and L&D! We all know AI is the hot new thing, but it could be a double-edged sword when it comes to attracting and retaining top talent. According to this recent McKinsey podcast, employees who use AI tools regularly are high-value and in-demand, but also more likely to LEAVE (gulp!). The episode dives into why these AI-empowered superstars might be feeling restless, and more importantly, how to attract them in AND keep them loving what you have to offer. Plus, it explores how AI is fundamentally changing the whole "work" thing. Here's some food for thought: The secret weapon might not be all about the tech skills (using those fancy AI tools that I love so much). In my experience speaking and working with leaders to build AI-empowered teams, soft skills like problem-solving, creativity, critical thinking, and communication are the real key to unlocking the true power of AI. ️ Why? Because these skills ensure you're using AI for the right problems, not just the trendy ones. They also help you collaborate effectively with both AI and your colleagues (because let's face it, teamwork makes the dream work!). ADDED BONUS: These soft skills are like professional superpowers because the benefits reach ALL areas, not just AI. If you're holding out on AI - STOP IT! Help your people become AI-empowered and focus on building well-rounded teams with the skills to thrive in the future of work.
