By the numbers
- 78% of Americans are all in for AI literacy being taught in schools. (Gallup and Northeastern University, 2023)
- But 66% of workers are sweating it because they don’t have the chops to keep up with AI. (PwC, 2023)
- And yet, only a stingy 29% of organizations have a solid AI training program. (IBM Global AI Adoption Index, 2023)
What they're saying
"AI is too important not to be democratized," says Andrew Ng, the guy with credentials so long they’d make your head spin.
But really, he hits the nail on the head. AI can't just be for the technocrats; it's gotta be for everyone who can spell AI (that's everyone, by the way).
Yes, but
Yes, AI sounds like it belongs in a sci-fi movie with flying cars and robot butlers.
But really, it's like sneaking a peak in the magician's hat to reveal that the rabbit trick isn't that complex.
With the right tools and know-how, AI is there to lend a helping (non-corporeal) hand.
The bottom line
AI isn’t sorcery, and you won't need a wand or fancy degree to wield it.
All you need is curiosity and a willingness to learn.
Trust me, soon you'll be asking ChatGPT to order your favorite takeout while fine-tuning your biz strategy in a blink.
