BEST MOMENTS
“I think like kind of the way to look at it is most people just look at it as a productivity enhancer. You know, it helps me write emails. It helps me do this, which I think is a massive misappropriation.”
Give me 3 or 5 examples of companies that have successfully implemented this strategy and break down tactically exactly what they did. So then you have real-world examples to pull from. And then you could also say, ask it to cite its sources as well.
“Let’s say you’ve got this challenge at work and maybe you don’t have other folks on the team, right? Or you don’t have other people to talk to about this challenge. You could literally just like tell it what the challenge is and then say, can you help me figure out how to solve this? What are three approaches you would take?”
“If I don’t need it, I’m not going to use the tool. Whereas some people are like, Oh my gosh, this is a new flashy, shiny object. I must use it.”
