Recommendation

Artificial intelligence (AI) is encroaching upon the jobs of knowledge workers and people in creative industries. However, as Miranda Katz explains in Wired magazine’s Backchannel blog, the marriage between AI and knowledge professionals has so far been mostly happy: AI performs the mundane tasks (without getting tired or asking for a raise), while knowledge workers get to focus on the more interesting aspects of their jobs. But will the honeymoon last? getAbstract recommends checking whether AI can help make your job more productive and rewarding.

Take-Aways

  • Artificial intelligence (AI) tools help knowledge workers focus on those parts of their jobs that require deep thinking, creativity and intuition.
  • Translators can process much more text by working with AI-generated first drafts of translations, which they then refine.
  • The AI-powered ROSS tool helps lawyers save several days of discovery work by searching legal databases for cases and providing summaries and analyses of its findings.
