There is not a day that goes by that we don’t hear something new about AI. A new business, a new datacenter built for AI, or why you should be using it.
I’ve been keeping involved with the software side of this product for some time. ChatGPT seems to be the big winner right now. The processes that it does well with are writing stories, reports, drawing images and even composing songs. This are nice uses, but that’s not going to revolutionize any industry. Finding out what causes a type of cancer or how to increase manufacturing productivity is what the tech industry is striving for.
So how can a small business get involved? Well, quite frankly, don’t even try to use it at a high level right now. The cost would be astronomical and there is no guarantee that an AI programmer or team can make it work correctly. You will notice if you use a lower-level program that upgrades are constantly happening. Everyone is racing to be the best and have all the answers.
My suggestion, and what NetCetra does at this point, is to look for software that we use with AI built in or offer it as an option. Let the big boys carry the expense load right now.
One of the simplest ways to get used to AI is through your browser. Be sure to install the AI option in any browser. This way when you do a search, it will give you options and an explanation. You may be using this feature and don’t even realize it.
Enjoy the ride and try to stay up to date by reading about it. It’s here to stay and will make your life and business better IF you understand it. It’s one way to stay ahead of your competition. Chances are they are not paying attention. |
