Five Things AI: Pivot, Training, Creative Brief, Poisoning, Weather
Everything's AI these days.
When will we hit the moment when everybody just assumes that AI is a normal part of a product? Right now, there are so many product releases that explain why the product will be even more breathtaking than before thanks to some newfangled AI component. It reminds me of the time when lots of founders dabbled with blockchain instead of just using a simple database. At the same time, I find lots of products with the new AI infusion simply underwhelming - we are peak AI hype right now.
Let’s see how long it will take to find the really useful products that use AI and make our daily lives better.

It will be interesting to see tools that can then analyze how much the creative work then correlates with the brief.
