Someone explains why they avoid AI due to environmental costs and concerns it kills human creativity. They're open to using it as a secondary tool for interviews or resource-strapped teams, but not as a replacement for human collaboration.
And do you use AI? Uh, I do not personally use AI. I don't think we use any for the business. I run most of the marketing stuff and I do all the menu stuff and I actively try to avoid it. Oh, okay. Why? Um, because I don't like what it does for the environment. People rely too much on, uh, using it for creativity and that just makes you not be able to do those things that you wanna do quite as successfully as before. People should be able to think for themselves and write things for themselves and be creative. By themselves.
Have you ever thought of it as a creative tool, as a partner instead of something doing it for you, to prompt you to think about things you haven't thought of before?
Yes. Such as an interview tool. Yeah, absolutely. I think it can be used like that for sure, um, especially when you don't necessarily have a, a good like team around you. Yeah. Um, but I think it's important to use it as a secondary choice as opposed to using it over the peers that you have around you. That Thank you so much.
You're so welcome.
