AI Is Our Amplified Intelligence

In today’s fast-paced world, the conversation around artificial intelligence often centers on the idea of displacement. However, that perspective misses a crucial point. AI isn’t here to replace us; it’s here to amplify us.

Think of it as a powerful new tool in our toolbox. Just as the invention of the calculator allowed us to perform complex math faster and more accurately, AI tools enable us to be more productive, creative, and strategic. They can handle the repetitive, data-heavy tasks, freeing up our time and energy to focus on what humans do best: critical thinking, innovation, and building relationships.

The real key to success in this new era isn’t a battle of human versus machine. Instead, it’s about learning how to work with AI. We must all become proficient in understanding its capabilities and limitations, discerning when and how to use it, and knowing how to evaluate the quality of its output. The ability to use AI as a partner will be a fundamental skill, one that empowers us to do our jobs faster, smarter, and better than ever before.

The Power of Continuous Learning: Training Your Brain Like an LLM

“The only way to win is to learn faster than anyone else.” – Eric Ries, The Lean Startup

This quote by Eric Ries has always resonated with me, especially as a seasoned IT professional. In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, continuous learning is no longer a luxury; it’s a necessity for staying ahead of the curve.

One powerful approach I’ve recently adopted is to think of my brain as a Large Language Model (LLM). Just like an LLM is trained on vast amounts of data to identify patterns and generate insights, I’ve been focusing on feeding my mind with diverse knowledge and experiences.

Over the past 12 months, I’ve embarked on a focused learning journey, immersing myself in a variety of in-house training courses and also external programs centered on Artificial Intelligence. I firmly believe that to truly grasp the transformative power of AI, we need to explore it from multiple angles. My goal was to develop a holistic understanding of AI, from its strategic implications for businesses to its potential for enhancing productivity and fostering trust.

Here are a few external programs I completed:

πŸ… MIT Sloan – AI: Implications for Business Strategy Program
πŸ… BSI – Shaping Trust in AI – Understanding 42001 Standard
πŸ… ISACA – Auditing Gen AI: Strategy, Analysis & Risk Mitigation
πŸ… IDEO U – AI for Design Thinking
πŸ… Jeff Su Workplace Academy – Gemini for Productivity
πŸ… Deeplearning – Multi AI Agent Systems with CrewAI
πŸ… Deeplearning – Large Multimodal Model Prompting with Gemini

While everyone’s learning journey is unique, I encourage you to embrace the concept of continuous learning and consider how you can “train your brain” like an LLM. By consistently feeding your mind with new information and experiences, you can unlock your full potential and thrive in this era of rapid technological advancement.
