Briefly

I developed AI at IBM. Here's how to not become intellectually dependent on tools.
"In the last 15 years, I have built and scaled AI capabilities, and I have over 200 deployments under my belt. I went from being an individual practitioner to running IBM's enterprise data management practice. I was the chief data officer at Sony Music, the chief analytics officer at Estée Lauder, and the head of technology for AWS's startup division in North America. All my experiences from 2011 on have led me to realize there's a real chance people will develop a codependency on AI."
"Intellectual atrophy is when you lose your cognitive ability to think critically because you're outsourcing that thinking to tech. Just like our muscles atrophy if we don't use them, so does our brain. The big thing that you'vegot to be careful of is making sure that generative AI doesn't make your thinking become generic, because everyone else is also using ChatGPT. You maintain your edge by using cognitive power."
Experience includes 15 years building and scaling AI capabilities and more than 200 deployments. Roles have included running enterprise data management at IBM, serving as chief data officer at Sony Music, chief analytics officer at Estée Lauder, and heading technology for AWS's startup division in North America. Current work focuses on preparing enterprises to use AI and automation to amplify the workforce rather than replace it. Emphasis is placed on avoiding intellectual atrophy by outsourcing tasks, not critical thinking. Daily use of six to eight AI tools supports acceleration, with advice against copy-pasting AI responses.
