> That's what the AI's really are terrible at -- creativity
Good thought piece here "We Are Losing the Ability to Discover What We Didn’t Know to Ask[1]" By Anne-Laure Le Cunff
It keeps playing on my mind as I see people at work follow some predetermined AI workflow to get their jobs done, the art of being curious and exploring around the problem is so important to the really big innovations. Been thinking about how to address this through some of the harnesses we are developing in the knowledge working space.
I met a senior (as in, 4th year of college) recently and she asked me: what advice do you have for someone just graduating in the AI age? (as I had told her that I've been in ML for 20+ years, etc.)
My recommendation to her was: just _play_ with the AI! It's a brand new tool, and none of us knows its capabilities, limitations, boundaries etc. (which are fluid, of course). So just spend as much time as you can tinkering with it, playing with it, making it do things it was not expected to do, etc. and you'll develop an idea of how to make better use of it.
