🤖💡 AI Insight of The Week

"As we go through this transformation together, be curious about AI, educate yourself, attend workshops and take trainings, use and experiment with AI whenever you can, participate in your team’s brainstorms to figure out how to invent for our customers more quickly and expansively, and how to get more done with scrappier teams." Andy Jassy, CEO, Amazon

Here’s the big shift that's already happening:

AI isn't coming for your job - it's coming for your tasks

- If you don’t adopt it, someone else will.

- If your company doesn’t, someone else’s will.
