Our world is rushing head first into an A.I. future and we want to encourage our listeners to remain vigilant in these exciting times, as there is some legitimate cause for concern with the changes brought by A.I. Technology.Joining us as our guest is Dan Vance from Shop Dog Marketing.Craig has known Dan for a few years now and it was at ASTA in 2023 that he first heard Dan Speak Up on the topic of AI to a group of shop-owners on the promise and peril of AI…and he saw Dan deliver a presentation on the topic again at the MARS marketing conference with the Institute for Business Excellence in (beautiful) Ogde, UT earlier this year.In this episode Dan acknowledges many of Craig's concerns regarding AI, while they both align on the actual benefits.  Craig states regularly that the last skill machines should ever be able to take from us is our ability to communicate interpersonally and … but in some areas - A.I. is far more capable of outperforming certain tasks.  While that is happening - there remains a disconnect between AI’s ability to generate data and present the data in a way that can produce more effective interactions with real people.  Our listeners who may share in Craig’s concerns will no doubt appreciate Dan’s calm and reassuring thoughts on the topic.  Watch the YouTube VideoTopics include:  Early AI and Machine learningThe concept of Human Capital.Authenticity as a new focusCommunication tendency becoming less synchronousEfficiency vs. Authenticity and what we loseAI Strengths and practical usesSocial Proof - and a word on Reviews and AIGoogle quality rater guidelines - EAT - Experience Authority and TrustJoin Our Virtual Toastmasters: https://remarkableresults.biz/toastmastersThank You To Our Partners:The Institute at WeAreTheInstitute.com.  "Stop stressing over your business, you deserve a good night's sleep.
