Why AI đ¤ Should Mess With Your Head
Bold Decisions Create Extraordinary Businesses.
I hope it helps you create yours.
Most people are using AI wrong.
They ask it questions.
They ask it to write stuff.
They ask it to give them answers.
I use AI differently.
I use AI as my Collision Vehicleâ˘.
I throw my ideas at it.
It pushes something back.
I challenge it. Reject it. Change it. Ask âWhat if?â Throw another idea into the mix.
And sometimes two ideas collide and something completely new emerges.
đĽ Donât Let AI Do Your Thinking
This is the danger with AI.
Ask it to do all your thinking and youâll eventually sound like everyone else using the same technology.
AI shouldnât replace your thinking. It should give your thinking something to challenge.
I bring my experience.
My judgment.
My ideas.
My intellectual property.
My point of view.
AI helps me pressure-test and improve them.
Thatâs a completely different relationship.
đ AI Multiplies What YOU Bring to the Collision
This is the key.
AI multiplies what YOU bring to the collision.
Bring experience, original ideas, a strong point of view and something uniquely yoursâand AI can help you make it better.
Bring nothing original?
Donât expect AI to magically make you different.
I use AI as a Thinking Partner.
An Editor.
A Research Assistant.
A Content Multiplier.
A Presentation Partner.
A Memory Bank.
And an Execution Accelerator.
One idea can collide with AI and become a sharper concept, an article, a presentation, a podcast, a social postâor something I hadnât even considered.
But the original thinking is still mine.
The better the thinking you bring to AI, the more valuable the collision can become.
đĽ BE Imperfect FAST⢠With AI
I donât obsess over writing the perfect prompt.
I start.
AI responds.
I react.
I revise.
We go again.
Execute. Learn. Adjust.
Thatâs BE Imperfect FASTâ˘.
And itâs exactly how Iâve learned to get more value from AI.
The more we collide, the better the outcome becomes.
đ§ AI Becomes Part of Your Strategic Learning System
This is where AI gets really interesting.
Used properly, AI accelerates the cycle between thinking, doing, learning and improving.
It doesnât just help you produce things faster.
It can help you think better while youâre producing them.
Thatâs why I see AI as part of my Strategic Learning Systemâ˘.
Not the thinker.
Not the strategist.
Not the boss.
The Collision Vehicleâ˘.
đ Whatâs Your Next Audacious Moveâ˘?
Stop asking AI to think for you.
Bring it something worth having AI challenge.
Your experience.
Your ideas.
Your point of view.
Then collide.
Challenge.
Learn.
Adjust.
And create something neither you nor AI would have created alone.
Donât use AI to replace your brain.
Use it as your personal âtest of reasonablenessâ to make your brain more valuable.
Donât ask AI to make you different. Bring something different to AI.
