AI the Force Multiplier

The buzz-phrase about AI is that it’s a “force multiplier.”

Ok, what does that really mean? What are people trying to say?

I think (and this is just a guess) they’re trying to say that AI helps you and your organization be more productive and effective. If that’s what they mean, then yes, I agree that AI can act as a force multiplier.

But what does it multiply?

It multiplies you.

Your input. Your instructions. Your incentives.

Garbage in will still produce garbage out. AI makes it easier than ever. You can generate more crap a lot faster.

So you want AI to be a force multiplier for good?

Get better at requirements, specs, and instructions.
