How I used Gen AI to build my confidence

Have you ever felt intimidated by AI, thinking it's too complex?

I work in tech consulting but never saw myself as tech-savvy. I resisted exploring AI, fearing its complexity and potential job impact.

But more recently, I gathered the courage to learn about and apply Gen AI in my daily work, and I'm pleasantly surprised by the results.

Here are some of my favorite tools and use cases:

Drafting Content with ChatGPT

It helps me create engaging Slack emails meant for mass sending (emojis anyone?🤣) and LinkedIn posts that are engaging.

Initially, I feared that AI would replace my creativity and ability to write, but I found it to be a powerful tool that enhances it.

My tip: find a specific ChatGPT tool tailored to your needs. There are many writing-focused ChatGPT tools available, and you can even create and train your own for specific uses.

This approach helps me overcome the initial hurdle of idea generation, allowing me to jot down ideas in bullet points and then pull them together in a structured and impactful way.

Researching with Perplexity.ai 

For research, I use Perplexity.ai, which provides cited sources.

One of my biggest fears is misleading others with incorrect information. Knowing the vast amount of data available, I find it daunting to sift through it all.

Perplexity.ai allows me to scan through resources quickly and validate or invalidate the information I want to share. This gives me confidence that what I'm sharing is accurate and trustworthy.

Enhancing Coaching Sessions with AI Note-Taking

AI note-taking tools have become invaluable in my coaching sessions.

I've always struggled with the fear of missing important information. These tools ensure that I don’t lose any key details, realizations, or aha moments.

By using AI for note-taking, I can focus entirely on my coachees without the distraction of taking notes manually, making me more present and impactful. They allow my coachees to relive and recall the decisions they’ve made and follow up on actions.
