For better and for worse... AI is here,

and I think it's only going to become more powerful and influential in our lives.

We are literally living through the transition from "Pre-AI" to "Post-AI". It's going to show up everywhere!

You have the choice to embrace this new technology and learn and adapt.

Or you can wait and see.

Either way, AI is going to continue to develop at a rapid pace.

So we all need to ask ourselves an important question,

"Do I want and need AI now or should I wait?"

Here's the honest truth. Are you ready?

You can probably wait a bit things to develop...

And it might be prudent. I'll be honest that the deeper into AI that I get, the more nervous I feel.

This technology is brand new and it's a bit of the Wild West. People going deep now are literally paving the way and figuring it out as it is being built.

I talk to people every day about this, and most people have never used it or have only barely tried it, and that totally normal and ok. (Don't listen to the LinkedIn FOMO techbros)

It is going to take a while so you can probably take your time for a bit and be fine. (Maybe try dabbling with Microsoft Copilot a bit though)

But I think the technology is here to stay and as ChatGPT says... this is a real "Game Changer"

You can probably ignore AI for a few more months or even years. Although, It is going to start showing up in a bunch of stuff everywhere. And I think the internet is going to get weird and filled with AI slop.

Or maybe you're thinking, 'Can I just learn to use AI myself through experimentation and free resources?'

You sure can. Using AI is surprisingly easy. You just talk to it like a super smart assistant. (Try the microphone feature...seriously, #1 tip)

But do you have the time and motivation to invest in figuring it all out yourself? Do you have time to waste on going down the wrong path a few times?

Or do you want to start getting the benefits of AI right away?

I want to help you do that.

This is about speeding up your adoption and helping you immediately get all the benefits that AI can provide. So you can...

〰️Free up time from tedious admin tasks

〰️Increase your funding

〰️Amplify the positive impact you are making in the world

So you have two choices:

1: You wait and see...

You keep doing things the way you've been doing them and you keep focused on providing the support you offer to the people you serve.

Keep an eye on things and wait for AI in your existing platforms, like Microsoft and Google. Microsoft Copilot is a great easy option and there is a ton of good training. Maybe I've piqued your interest about the benefits and keep watching and learning on your own.

I've been thinking for a while that every person and every organization might have to go on some sort of AI journey, as this technology is built into everything else.

You are welcome to get my Free AI Quick-Start Guide or really low cost community group for nonprofit leaders.

You will honestly be fine and on the same track most people will follow.

Keep up the good work and keep helping!

OR...

2: You choose ...

You listen to your (healthy) skepticism, face your uncertainty head-on, and still say YES.

And take the plunge into the unknown, and you invest in yourself and fast-track your AI adoption right now.

Because you know what?

The people you support deserve to have you at your very best. With all the tools and resources you need to keep going for the long haul. Because the world needs you and the people you serve need you, and you can't do that if you live on the edge of burnout.

There will be new ethical questions and a lot of unknowns to consider. You will literally be paving the way for future organizations.

So... are you ready to start your AI journey and work together to figure this out?

Because I can't WAIT to meet you and hear how you're helping!
