Episode highlights
“When I started to dig into it and play with the tools myself, I went, “Oh, my God, this is extraordinary.” Because it doesn’t just touch marketing and sales and content, it touches every aspect of human existence. That is the reality of it. At which point, you’ve got to take a massive deep breath and go; “where do I even start with this?” – 8:54 – Gavin Williams
“There needs to be inquisitiveness from your team and your business. They need to do it, they need to go and say “I’m gonna go and play with that tool, I need to go and figure that out myself.” Go and find out yourself what these tools can do and understand the potential. That’s my approach to it, and I’ve not published any of it, I’m looking at it and going, “This is really cool. This is going to be really efficient for me.” and I think that’s enough for me at the moment.” – 19:58 – Gavin Williams
“Where do you start? It’s actually a very simple answer; ask ChatGPT! We booked out half a day and everybody asked chat GPT how they could do their job better, or certain things that they could improve. So throughout the breadth of my team, being able to do a prompt in a half day workshop, has allowed them to be a lot more productive off the back of it.” – 25:34 – Abdul Khaled
“We’re at the end of the beginning of AI. I think there’s two, there’s two critical things that will happen. First intellectual property owners are saying “You’re using our IP to train your model to then monetise, and we want a slide of that.” Second, if you look at the history of disruptive technology, the people who had the starters advantage, will lobby governments to ring fence the technology to their favour.” – 30:47 – Charlie Bell
“If we teach it to be bad, AI will take over and the world will become a very scary place. So we’ve got to be careful what we as users put in, not just from a business perspective, but from a personal perspective” – 35:06 – Katie Street
“With AI policies, companies are going to have to be quite progressive on that front and get ahead of the regulators, if they want to take advantage of it. Because they are ultimately the person who’s responsible for the content on the website, and you don’t want to end up in a situation where a company is sued, or found to be in breach of regulation, by not being proactive enough.” 36:46 – Charlie Bell
