Time Well Spent

Only you can determine what time well spent means to you. However, if you’re a knowledge worker (of any age, title/role, or career path), I’d recommend spending some time determining how you will be at the forefront of using AI in your role and in your organization. Here are some questions to ask:

• What should humans stay responsible for?
• What makes me, or us, unique in our market?
• What makes me, or us, unique in this organization?
• What do my colleagues and I struggle with most?
• What is the hardest part of my job?
• What inputs do I get and what outputs do I produce?
• If I had a magic wand, what would I change about my work?
• If I had a personal assistant, what would I have them do?
• What do I love about my work?
• What do I hate about my work?
• What sandbox project can I work on to test and practice my AI ideas?
• What don’t I understand about AI and its capabilities?

These aren’t the only ones, but they’re a good starter. Knowledge work requires knowledge. AI shifts the paradigm on knowledge. Thinking about this is time well spent.
