How should we be thinking about our optimism for AI while cause for concern grows by the day?
In the past few days, Kellan and I have had a handful of peer-to-peer conversations with people that are using AI very heavily to their own personal benefit. There is an undisputed tension that comes up in these conversations. While the value we may be personally receiving is very good (or even quite remarkable), our perspective on the current overall picture is full of concerns.
Kellan recently started explaining how we (Tiny Bottle AI) are both Pro-AI and Anti-AI in most conversations we’re having with prospects and clients. I decided we’d use that frame for our latest podcast recording without telling him in advance. Ironically, he also hadn’t asked me what I thought about it before he started saying so.
We started TBAi to help companies who were struggling to figure out how to approach AI. Having an open dialogue on the issues is an increasingly important part of that.
Below are some resources I’ve read recently that you might find useful on these topics.

I think leaders really have an important task right now. Read a lot. Think a lot. Have opinions. Talk about them. Find people that don’t agree with you. Be ready to change your mind.
