Week 9 - Three Ways To Prepare for AI (Adapt)

In the Book Surfing The Tsunami An Introduction to Artificial Intelligence and Options for Responding by Todd Kelsey, he discusses three ways to integrate oneself into the changing world of AI in order to be ready for AI in the future.

The first option, Adapt, is the bear minimum one should do in order to have a leg up on someone else when it comes to AI. When Kelsey talks about adapting, he means to be aware of what the current state of AI is, and to keep tabs on any changes that are made in that industry. By doing this, it enables one to become more aware of the many possibilities that AI has for the future of not only business, but many other industries as well.

AI is becoming more and more useful in a multitude of other industries besides business. The medical industry is pushing the boundary with the accuracy of diagnoses in patients by using AI. Even in the gaming industry, AI is becoming more and more prevalent. Recently, Tesla's Owner, Elon Musk and his team created an AI capable of beating professional gamers. A skill that was acquired through many hours of hard work was beaten by a computer that was made just a few weeks prior. No matter the industry, it is plain to see that AI is increasing its presence and in order to keep ahead of the times, Kelsey urges everyone to at least Adapt and keep up to date with what is going on in the world of AI.

After reading Chapter 4 of Surfing The Tsunami by Todd Kelsey, I was informed of the three different levels of responding to AI. Adapting to AI is when one becomes aware of what AI is and where it is heading. Adopting AI is when one starts to utilize AI tools and programs. Finally, being Adept to AI is when one is actively included in the process of pushing the AI boundary and creating new tech that allows it to flourish. Recently, I have been taking a class on Digital Marketing, and at the beginning, I believe myself to have been in the Adapting category. I was aware of AI and what its capabilities were, however, I was not used to utilizing AI and its tools.
