Coffee with Kim

If you’re like me you know ChatGPT is game changing but actually figuring out HOW to use it is something else entirely! To help other 101 beginners, I brought LinkedIn Learning Instructor and AI expert, Dave Birss on to discuss how to use this new technology properly, what mistakes we might be making, and how we can improve our prompts so we get the results we’re looking for. He shared some insider info on where AI is getting information and we discussed everything from creative ways to use it to the ethics that so many are concerned about right now. It was an extremely insightful conversation into the new technology that is changing the way we all work and live! Notes:06:30 AI and creativity11:28 Seeing ChatGPT as a collaborator15:15 Where is ChatGPT getting its information21:00 Skills ChatGPT doesn’t have that humans have25:15 How to write a prompt using Dave’s acronym - C.R.E.A.T.E.34:53 Speed Round ResourcesIf you loved this episode you should check out this episode Entrepreneurial Thinking With Jess EkstromIf you enjoyed today’s episode, please:1.)

As a leader the balance between being liked and being respected is blurred? Do I get down in the trenches with my team (so they will like me) or do I forge a path for us solo (potentially alienating others).
