The AI summary
I asked Notion AI to summarize our podcast transcript in 10 key lessons:
* Use AI at the beginning and end of the strategy process, not in the middle.
* AI can be used to gather research and prompt ideas at the beginning of a project.
* Use AI for word craft at the end of a project to improve language and make it more succinct or creative.
* AI can help identify consumer problems and generate insights, but always cross-validate the results.
* AI is not a replacement for human nuance in strategy.
* Use AI to jailbreak prompts and get to unconventional insights.
* Use analogies and metaphors to make strategy more memorable and visual.
* Don't use AI for research validation.
* AI can't replace human truth-sayers or cultural context.
* AI language models like GPT are probabilistic and require human input and context to generate useful insights.
