AI and other types of machine learning have been here for decades but with limited adoption outside of academic, scientific, and mathematical spheres. That’s no longer the case, with advancement accelerating exponentially. Large language models like ChatGPT already have over 100 million active users, and 98 percent of global executives say AI will be important to their company in the next three to five years. Experts predict annual global growth of up to 4.4 trillion dollars (USD) for the global economy. And generative AI may automate tasks that now take up to 70 percent of employees’ time. It’s clear AI is changing work as we know it. How will you rise to the challenge?
Learning and development leaders can’t risk sitting on the sidelines. As one economist noted, AI isn't coming for your job, but, rather, "It’s somebody using AI that will take your job." It’s imperative that our field understands what the technology can and can’t do. We must lead the charge into the future of learning and take advantage of the incredible opportunities to innovate learning practices.
Once upon a time, media giant Netflix had to decide: Keep investing in physical DVDs or try
this streaming thing? They made the right call. Blockbuster didn’t.
Learning leaders face a similar challenge: Keep using old methods, or embrace change and
lead a new way? The market has already decided AI is irrevocably here to stay. So, how will you use it? It’s time to deeply evaluate and test the technology and build the case for what
AI can do—and what only you can do. Lean into the human skills that empower your success because they are irreplaceable. And then, let your new robot assistant take you even further.
