“A #system designed to predict the most likely next word in a sentence can also write good #ComputerCode, offer strategic advice and respond with remarkable empathy to human problems. We don’t fully understand why. And yet the dominant instinct across the #corporate world is to treat #ArtificialIntelligence as if it were just another piece of enterprise software: slot it into existing processes, assign it Key Performance Indicators ( #KPI ) and hand it to the it department for management.
This is a profound strategic mistake. Companies are racing to *de-weird AI*, and in doing so they are squandering what makes it transformative, turning it into just the latest wave of office automation. To be clear, making #AI easy to use is important, and building it into familiar tools and #workflows is just smart #engineering. The mistake is letting those smooth interfaces flatten your understanding of the #technology’s possibilities.”
