Traci Fiatte Thomas’ Post

This is a fantastic topic Traci Fiatte Thomas and one I’ve been paying a lot of attention to within Glyde Talent and in general. The first thing I must say on this relates to my personal bug-bear and the thing that annoys me most right now which is the ubiquitous talk of using AI as a transactional tool accomplishing tasks more quickly. It’s like we learned nothing from the invention of the automobile or email. Doing a task faster using AI reminds me of the thinking that might result in seeing white-out (Tipp-Ex for UK) patches on a computer monitor! The second thing that I note is the use of AI to churn out mediocre documentation or content - especially for things like SOPs or other material intended for repeat use - do it right people if it’s going to be reused by your wider team over again! With those out of the way, we get to the juicy part - AI is a complete game changer in the way that email was to the fax machine. The advent of email had a bigger impact on business and recruiting like nothing before - it wasn’t the moving of newspaper job ads onto internet job boards that changed recruiting - it was email. Email changed how we communicate and share, instantly across the globe. AI is the most significant step since email for staffing. It creates the first real opportunity to remove wasted effort from the entire industry- bearing in mind that for every placement made 100’s of hours of effort went to waste and created zero value - in most cases it’s lower than 1% of human input that generates any value in the staffing industry (candidate effort included). No other business model on the planet tolerates this level of waste - not even the most bureaucratic sections of government! We have the data in Glyde Talent that demonstrates this with real candidates and customers - only fear now will hold your organisation back unlesss you plan on dusting off your old fax machine in the hopes of a purple squirrel!

Worried about AI taking over jobs? Think again! Here’s how you can harness the power of AI to excel in your role and stay ahead of the curve: 1️⃣ Automate Routine Tasks: Free up your time by letting AI handle repetitive tasks, allowing you to focus on strategic and creative work. 2️⃣ Data-Driven Insights: Use AI to analyze data and uncover actionable insights that can guide your decision-making and boost your performance. 3️⃣ Customer Insights: AI can help you understand your audience better by analyzing patterns and behaviors, enabling you to provide more personalized and effective service. Instead of fearing AI, let's use it to our advantage and transform the way we work! 🌟💼 #FutureOfWork #AIPowered #CareerGrowth #WorkSmart #Innovation #AIInWorkplace #JobProMax

The Value of AI: Moving from Talk to Action Thinking about AI without taking real action is not going to create anything. Reading newsletters about AI. Talking about AI. Watching videos about how others are using the latest and greatest new AI app is good for information and being in the know. But, we all know, the only way to learn how AI can work in your life and business is to actually use the tools to create something of value to you. Take the time to save time. We have all heard this: What is the most valuable commodity on the planet? Not just any time... your time. AI, when deployed correctly, saves you the one thing that you cannot replace: time. Years ago, I was told to hire out anything that was below my hourly billable rate so that I would have time to focus on "more important" tasks. I was hiring out to people at that time. Now, I don't have to hire a person. I can truly outsource to my computer. Too many times, we believe that reading about, talking about, or making plans about something is actually progress. If you don't take the time to learn these tools and actually have the tools work for you, then this AI revolution is going to pass you by. Start With Easy Stuff: - Use AI to automate some personal tasks today. - Have AI fetch information for you. - Instruct AI to summarize a long article. - Create a graph from an Excel file using AI. - Create the image for an ad using AI. All of these actions save time. And time, in the end, is all we have. Sometimes, we all we need is a reminder.

"We're not where we need to be with AI, and it's a concern." These were the words of a former colleague during a recent catch-up. They're not alone. Many agencies are struggling to fully integrate AI into their workflows. Imagine the difference it would make if we could leverage AI more effectively. It's not just about automating tasks. It's about transforming how we do business. Going from: ✅ Counting hours → Quantifying value. ✅ Focusing on tasks → Generating impact. ✅ Measuring PR output → Measuring PR results. If done correctly, we can create more time for the creative and strategic work AI doesn't do well, but humans excel at. Imagine a model where: 💡 There's time to refine strategy. 💡 Human insights guide us. 💡 Creativity flourishes. If you're grappling with AI integration, you're hardly alone. The best time to start integrating AI was a year ago. The next best time? Right now. What's your AI journey? Is your agency or company prepared?

How much time do you spend on small tasks while working? The concept of strategic laziness seeks to automate these tasks, which is becoming increasingly easy due to AI. The "laziness" I'm talking about is not about filling your moments with pointless distractions. It's about letting your brain remain idle. Think about the last time you had a creative insight. Was it when you were focused on another task? Probably not. Research on creativity shows that individuals are most creative when their minds are idle. For example, some have their best insights when they're taking a walk or when they're in the shower. The advancement of AI allows us to allocate smaller tasks to AI tools, allowing us more time to let our minds wander and be creative. Here are a few ways to be strategically lazy with AI: - Use AI to automate repetitive tasks. This could include things like data entry, scheduling appointments, or generating reports. - Use AI to find patterns and insights in data. This could help you make better decisions, identify opportunities, or solve problems. So next time you're feeling overwhelmed by all the little tasks on your to-do list, don't be afraid to be strategically lazy. Use AI to automate the tasks that you can, and let your brain do what it does best: create. Ashok Krish gave a fascinating talk on how you can strategically use AI at the IC3 Movement!
