Interesting question posed to me yesterday
Since MS's Nonprofit Global Leaders Summit, I have been talking to many people in our organisation about the benefits of Gen AI and trying to allay fears that it is going to take their jobs. However,...

MicrosoftI appreciate your question and I want to share that I create training content and enjoy the artistic aspect of that work. I like to brainstorm and design my own concepts for what I want to achieve and use copilot to assist me with the structure. I also use it to collect and summarize research. AI enables me to devote more time to crafting engaging activities (my favorite part) since I have a head start on some of the more mundane parts of content development.
Hi mrb999,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and asking a thought-provoking question.
I also receive joy from my work and self-satisfaction. People are still at the center of jobs. AI is there to assist you, not to take over. You, as a person, is still 'the boss' of what is created, how it is created, and why it is created. When prompting an AI, the way you craft a prompt and how many refinements you ask, will impact the generated response. Once it is generated, you don't need to nor should you take that at face value. You should review, edit, and refine to generate your vision. The goal is to make your job easier, faster, and leave more room to spend on what gives you joy and self-fulfillment in work.
I personally find (sometimes) getting started on a project is the hardest part. For me, I appreciate using AI to make me stop procrastinating. I completely scratch, review, refine, and edit what was created for me. This allows me to better understand what I actually want and got me started on that creative process.

- Building on some of Andrea's points, I think there is so much of the creative process in the work of using the AI. It's a mindset shift to see AI as a tool to enhance creativity vs a replacement for any of our own human ingenuity. We have the prompt AI tools to assist our creative thinking and the outputs are part of the creative process and development of the end results.
