It’s important to mention a few new considerations for content creation, co-creation, and curation. As artificial intelligence technology advances, AI's role in generating new ideas and content is becoming more significant. Generative AI affects not only how content is produced but also how it is managed and refined. For knowledge workers and creators, understanding AI's impact on the creative process is crucial. I believe strongly that integrating AI tools enhances, rather than diminishes, human creativity. As long as we consider ethical issues concerning originality, the collaborative potential between human creators and AI systems is mind-blowing!
I am already captivated by the new relationship emerging between me, the creator (or "prompter"), and these new foundational intelligence models. I believe we are witnessing the Rise of the Prompt Worker. This emerging category of professionals will gradually, then suddenly, replace knowledge workers as we've known them. Identifying as a Prompt Worker, I rarely have to start with a blank page. There are occasions where deep, quiet contemplation is needed to find the right groove or tone to launch a project, but rarely is that without the help of AI as an ideation partner.
Much of my work is now faster and easier with the help of generative AI. This partnership with AI allows me to focus more on crafting and refining ideas instead of struggling with initial drafts. The work you find here is original. Yes, it was partly created with prompts, but the creative effort still remains. This material exists due to my generative act. This blend of human insight and intuition augmented by AI assistance speeds up the writing and creative process, enhancing the final output's quality. It’s a new way of thinking about labor or “what work is,” combining creativity with cutting-edge foundational intelligence models.
Below are the fruits of that labor—a labor of love, really. My work has never felt more purposeful, creative, and fulfilling. I hope you, dear reader, viewer, and listener, find my creations, perspectives, and synthesis useful in your own pursuits. The content I’m generating (video, music, art, spoken, and written word) is all prompted into existence. I fully expect that in the not-too-distant future, organizations themselves will be "prompted" into existence too.
