The Human Touch & AI Aptitude 8’s Connor Jeffers was talking about this recently with ServiceBell’s Evan Dunn... exploring the question of "Where should teams deploy #AI in their processes?" But maybe we should really be asking,  "Where do we still need the human touch?" Let’s consider data management. While AI holds tremendous promise in automating tasks, without proper guidance, it can make existing errors worse, leading to an abundance of inaccuracies. This is where human insight becomes invaluable. Humans bring context, critical thinking, and a better understanding of organizational goals to the table. By providing oversight and course correction, they ensure that AI systems align with real-world needs and priorities. And that can make all the difference. This was just a part of their convo on the GTM with AI Podcast. You can check out the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/gmcRv7CW

Databricks,Thank you for sharing this insightful conversation, Databricks! I couldn't agree more with Ali Ghodsi's perspective on the importance of data in AI. As a copywriter and digital marketer, I've seen firsthand how crucial high-quality and well-curated data is for training and deploying generative AI models. In fact, data plays a pivotal role in shaping the success of any AI initiative. Without reliable and diverse data sources, it becomes exceedingly difficult to build accurate and robust models that can truly generate valuable insights. It's also worth noting that data quality and accessibility are paramount when it comes to implementing a winning GenAI strategy.

This is one of the deepest podcasts I've done to date. We cover: - AI Agents (and how real they are) - Social Media and the loss of identity - The history of LLMs If you're deep in the AI space or someone who wants to get a peek behind the curtain of the cutting-edge of AI, this is for you. https://lnkd.in/gMGu5ax3
