How Do You Use AI? Most people use it as a search engine. Some people use it write blog posts or customer emails. Some for analysis. But some assign it a role to do the analysis, like "evaluate this as an executive of XYZ company" or a hiring manager. My son-in-law, Eric Niday, uses AI for all of the above. Talking with him about his experiences with it was interesting, so I decided to have him on and share it with you. How far is too far? In addition to using AI at work to evaluate candidates and write SQL, Eric uses ChatGPT to research and debate theology. He made a chat bot theologian, instructed it with which theologians that he liked, so he could ask it questions. He even made it so it would "counsel" him. The chat bot even offered to "pray" for him (!). Um, that may be going too far.
