CORE Roles & AI

There is a lot of hype and fear surrounding AI, but the truth is that AI is here to assist you. If you take chat bots as an example, they seem pretty dumb and just a super charger to search or manage simple devices one at a time. Add some machine learning to these natural language capable devices or software and the game moves up to something more interesting. Add deep learning on top of them both and now the possibilities expand. Add cognitive capabilities to add knowledge and wisdom to information and data, and the game can be changed. AI can have a significant impact on our CORE roles. This blog scratches the surface on how AI helps in our basic roles.




Consumer:

We all play the role of consumer on a pretty frequent basis. Often we have to interact with organizations to deal with their products or services. Often these interactions leave us numb at best and upset at the worst. We have to deal with organizations in generalized way with some pretty antique systems and have to sort through the artificial boundaries created by specialties. Imagine if an organization creates a seamless experience that takes your history and needs into account. AI can help create just this kind of engagement model. Organizations need stop using chat bots to find the right department in replacement audio response units and start using compound AI to treat as you expect and will require. This means that call centers need to boost the knowledge and context intelligence to service you with excellence leveraging AI.

Organizational:

Most of us play roles inside of organizations as employees, management or not. Today we are as good as our skills and experience. Imagine if AI can act as an assist of sorts that handles basic administrative tasks for you like managing your calendar, sorting through your inbox and giving typical responses leveraging machine learning. Imagine if AI could act as a knowledge assistant that could give you expert knowledge, options and actions that consider a balance of dynamic and conflicting goals. AI can make you stronger than your base skills and knowledge which will, in turn add to your experience base. AI helps your role as you act on behalf of an organizations and interact with your peers, partners, prospects and patrons.

Relationships:

We all have a goodly number of relationships that we participate in on a daily basis. Imagine if you had a personal assistant that could guide you through relational and social situations with important knowledge to guide your behavior. Wouldn't we all benefit from becoming a better partner. In social situations, AI could give you options in your ear piece for potential etiquette and suggestions for good topics of discussion in the context you are in at the moment. Even the loner could be given advice on how to develop relationships where it is not a comfortable set of circumstances. This will put people on more equal footing in social situations.


Example:

We all want to be the best at what we view ourselves to be. You might want to be the kindest human on the planet with serving others as your big contribution of your time on this sphere. Service to others can be done on an experimental basis; learning as you go. You can now go to the web and find lots of opportunities to volunteer or even earn a living helping others. AI could help you sort through thousands of readings to net out potential outcome paths to give you alternative plans to reach your goal; done your way. You could have an AI guru and mentor at your side.

Net; Net: 

AI has the real opportunity to assist you in ways that are quite desirable and obtainable in the near future. Let's not fear AI; Let us embrace AI. This is said in the context of being aware and testing AI at all corners. Will AI ever violate it's base rule of doing no harm to humans?  In the wrong hands, it's possible. I believe that level heads will win the day for the near future.
