"No doubt you've noticed it-along with millions of others who now rely on AI for everything from planning product launches and rewriting emails to turning their beloved pets into cartoons. The adoption speed has been remarkable. In just a few years, AI has gone from a buzzword to a daily fixture in countless workplaces. And for many, it's already hard to remember what work looked like without it."
"It can summarize meetings, analyze data, write copy, solve coding problems, create images, and so much more. That amounts to real progress, unlocking hours that can be focused on more creative and strategic work. But as AI becomes increasingly embedded in our lives, and its "work" becomes better and better, it also becomes easier to overestimate what it can do. Part of that stems from fear. If we believe it can replace us, we start to believe it can think like us."
Millions of people now rely on AI for tasks from planning product launches to rewriting emails and creating images. Rapid adoption has made AI a daily fixture in many workplaces and freed hours for strategic work. The speed and fluency of AI leads to overestimation of its capabilities because it can produce convincing outputs. AI does not actually think; it predicts likely next words and mirrors existing ideas and content. When warnings about errors are ignored, users stop questioning outputs. Business leaders must deliberately integrate AI into operations and ensure human judgment directs critical decisions.
