Where Tips Can Improve Your Life

Honey or Artificial Sweetener?

DOES IT MATTER?

Honey and Artificial Sweeteners are both sweeteners, right? They both do the job, don’t they? You probably prefer one over the other if your taste palette goes to sweetness at all, don’t you? And why do you choose one over the other?

That’s lots of questions, some you may not consciously notice when making your choices. You might also bring nuances into your consideration, researching each selection, feeling well-informed and confident you’re making the best decision for yourself at this time based on what you know.

YEAH, AND SO?

To shine a bright light on where this is going, it’s an analogy for something currently drawing a lot of attention, interest, and concern in recent months. Artificial Intelligence/Chat GPT was launched by the technology company OpenAI in November 2022. It’s the “talk of the town” among many people.

Some people are diving head-first into the benefits and distinct advantages of saving time, expanding their own knowledge, and becoming the helpers. Original writing and Artificial Intelligence both get the job done, right, like honey and Artificial Sweetener? Yet there are or can be substantial differences in outcomes.   

WHAT REALLY DOES MATTER

The most profound thing for YOU to remember is you are a Subject Matter Expert and/or a Thought Leader. That’s more than a fancy title. It defines who you are in relation to what you know. There are other people who know some of what you know, yet they, like you, express it through a unique perception of the “best” way to digest the information.

For instance, when organizing your paper or electronic files, ten different productivity and organizing specialists give you ten different “best” ways to easily retrieve something you’ve filed. It may be the file titling, the sub-files hierarchy, the title tabs arrangement for paper files, color coding the tabs, or whether the most recent goes first or last. Each approach has merit, and only one will be the best primary one for YOU. It might even be elements from multiple styles.

GOOD, BAD, OR OTHERWISE?

Reflecting on the honey vs. Artificial Sweetener analogy, many people believe Artificial Sweetener can be harmful to their health, cost more, and isn’t as sweet a product as they want. Yet others think Artificial Sweetener is an ideal way to manage their calorie intake, convenient to carry with them or access when eating out, not at all harmful to them, and they continuously use that product to enhance anything they want to taste sweeter!

Other people would never in a million years put  any Artificial Sweetener into their body, no matter how inconvenient or inconsistently available honey was. They might even forgo the food or drink completely or consume it with less sweetness than they prefer. While there is not necessarily an obvious right/wrong factual issue here, there are definite consumer beliefs that define the product selection and desired experience.

YOUR EXPERTISE IS THE DIFFERENCE 

One of the clearest ways to assert your expertise is by identifying something you read, hear, or experience as completely incorrect, inaccurate, wrong, inappropriate, and any other adjectives you know to announce something as being false and untrue. 

POTENTIAL PIVOTS FOR YOU 

You can offer one or more new services in your business based on your depth of expertise. This is possible now at this early stage of mass awareness of Artificial Intelligence or even as it becomes more universally accepted. In fact, here are possible pivots for new and related services you can offer that come from this. 

1. Editing the output from a tool like ChatGPT for your clients on a topic clearly within your expertise. Your client might have written the original content and modified it using an AI tool, or the entire document could have come solely from such a tool. 

2. Create a manuscript from scratch for a client on a topic completely within your expertise. You can save time by using an AI tool, knowing what to include as truth and what to exclude. You can also expand the document you create by including concepts your client may not have even known.

3. Offer groups/membership clubs to teach what you have learned about AI tools so your students benefit by your guidance rather than stay overwhelmed and overloaded with something they find harder to learn on their own.
