Why “human-AI symbiosis” is essential for business and society

Today’s AI Renaissance is taking us on two different learning curves at once. The first has to do with method and technique. We need to learn to use the tools because they are changing everything we do at work. The second is broader: We need to understand the new landscape opening up before us at breakneck speed.

Both learning curves go beyond a pure technology orientation. The first—learning to use the tools—has as much to do with human capabilities as it does with automated systems. AI technology adoption isn’t primarily a computational affair. Its transformative potential extends beyond coding algorithms. We must learn to decide what to code, what data to use, and how to use it on behalf of people. When we work with natural language processing and GenAI, we must relearn our own human languages. Our current communications skills may seem familiar, but they don’t work with automated systems as they do with people.
