MACAULAY TRIP 2023

Generative AI is causing a big buzz at the moment. The ability of tools like ChatGPT, have a scarily human-like ability to produce well-researched content in seconds. To create text from simple prompts to a standard that can often pass as a human. This leaves many wondering what this technology means for the future of work, inparticular, essay writing... Rather than making humans redundant, we are learning how to use tools like ChatGPT to supercharge our work, give us ideas and prompts and automate mundane everyday tasks to carry out our jobs more quickly and efficiently.

AI isn’t, and may never be, a replacement for human intelligence. Understanding this means learning its limits and recognising situations where human skills, knowledge, judgment, and creativity are still vital. Learning how to use this powerful new technology to enhance our own abilities, to free up our time to focus on more challenging, higher-value work, will be a key skill for new-age professionals in the age of AI. Firstly, what is ChatGPT? Think Alexa or Siri but on steriods with more advanced, complex capablities. It’s able to handlemore complex inquiries and responses. It’s an example of “generative AI” because it can use existing data to generate new outputs, like poetry and fiction to emails, essays, blog and even computer code.

ChatGPT was created by Open AI, which is funded by a number of technology firms, like Microsoft, who recently invested $10 billion and are integrating it into their Bing search engine!

CEO of Open AI, Sam Altman often uses the example of a calculator. How does a calculator change the way we figure out math problems?

“It actually got integrated into the way we work quite quickly; My expectation is this new tool –this ability to generate text quickly in a foundational, quite generic but logical manner will get embedded quite quickly into the way we work.”

• Writers can use it to generate blogs, articles, and informational material.

• Teachers can use it to summarise educational material and create assignments.

• Financial professionals can automate bookkeeping and reporting.

• Lawyers can use it to summarise case law and quickly develop an understanding of areas of law that they have not previously studied.

• Marketers can use it to create ad copy and sales emails.

• Customer service agents can use it to generate responses to inquiries and compile FAQ documents on issues that are frequently raised.

• Healthcare professionals can use it to extract relevant information from medical records and examinations and compile reports and summaries of patient data.

Don’t get me wrong, OpenAI has heard everyone’s concerns, and it’s finally working on detecting AI-generated writing.

ChatGPT, has caused shockwaves in many industries due to its skilled writing and coding abilities. ChatGPT has already accomplished several impressive feats, including passing the US Medical Licensing Exam, a Wharton MBA exam, and 4 law school courses! It has also caused concern among teachers and other education professionals who say the ChatGPT will help students get better at cheating and plagiarism.

When you go to look up Lincoln University, about ten different ones pop up!

So... Open AI launched a web-based program called “AI Text Classifier” to tackle that issue. The program will flag pasted-in text with the following labels: “very unlikely,” “unlikely,” “unclear if it is,” “possibly,” or “likely” AI-generated. OpenAI admits its tool isn’t quite perfect yet: “It requires a minimum of 1,000 characters to determine whether text is AI-generated and is prone to making errors.”

So, there are three steps that we need to consider if we want to transition into the world of AI. The first is to think about how AI can automate the routine and repetitive tasks we do every day. Then we need to consider how it might expand our abilities and allow us to take on challenges that previously might have had us stumped or turning to others for help.

Last but by not least, we need to think about how we can use the time we’ve freed up by harnessing generative AI to spend more time on truly human tasks. This means face-to-face time with colleagues, clients, customers, as well as strategic tasks, creative tasks, and work that requires us to come up with genuinely new ideas.

Nice, practical, straight to the point.

Looks like something an art student drew up.
