And then the human has to come over the top to finish it, to make it better, to give it the values, judgment, and emotion that AI does not have.” - Aaron Kwittken*”Humans still need to come up with the idea. Creativity rests with us. It's really more so figuring out who else is gonna be interested in that idea or that concept.” - Aaron Kwittken*”The beauty of it to me is we might hire fewer people on the bottom, but they're going to have much better roles. They're going to stay longer. We're going to be able to upskill them. And instead of having less people, we're going to have people doing higher value things, potentially changing the compensation scheme as well. We agencies should not be paid for time and materials. We should be paid based on the value that we bring.” - Aaron Kwittken*”ChatGPT is a toy. PRophet is a tool. And I tell folks, ‘If you want to play around with ChatGPT on your own, great. Do not put anything corporate or any work related stuff in ChatGPT, because you don't own that. In the same way that if you use Google Sheets and you don't have an SLA in place, you're giving up all of your information.” - Aaron Kwittken*”AI is not biased. Humans are biased. And humans build algorithms that then power AI. AI isn’t really AI, it's really human intelligence. So AI is only going to be as biased as the humans who built it. So then you need to have countermeasures and algorithms that then search for and identify biases inside of each platform, which takes time and it takes investment.” - Aaron Kwittken*”You can't wait on the government. Put it this way: The government has had no control over social media platforms and that's caused all sorts of mayhem, despair, and death in the world. And we can go on and on about how reckless Facebook, Instagram, TikTok have been. The government has had no control over that. What makes us think that the government can control AI? There's no way. We have to do it ourselves.” - Aaron KwittkenTime Stamps[1:44] Introducing James Thomson, Senior Creative Director at Unbounce[6:00] AI in the news: Does Hillary Clinton endorse Ron DeSantis?
