I remember growing up watching Astro Boy in the morning before going to school. Astro Boy was a robot boy who was created to help his creator deal with the grief of losing his son. Astro Boy, struggled with ideals of human emotions and how to connect with others. I loved the cartoon, and it was the first time that I ever thought about artificial intelligence (AI).
Thirty years later, we are now living in a world where AI is a part of our personal or professional lives. How many of you have had an encounter with AI at work?
Have you ever submitted work, that you’ve spent time on, only to have your supervisor review or rewrite it using AI? Be honest, did it feel like a punch in the gut? You wouldn’t be alone, but let’s be clear that was not AI’s fault. However, that situation does touch on the point of using all of the benefits of AI without diminishing the creativity and feelings of people at the same time.
My first professional experience with this technology was not positive, yet I recognize that it isn’t going anywhere, and I now leverage it to assist in my work. I make sure my humanity comes through and that the voice of my clients shines. It can be challenging, but even though AI is everywhere, we still crave authenticity and creativity in our communications.

I disagree with using AI as a shortcut to be creative. Not only is it dangerous from a plagarism perspective, but it is also important to understand the cost and value of intellectual real estate. Not everyone thinks the same or can grasp emotions in writing the same and that is what makes us all special.
