Quotables

• “AI is a tool that can help you be more productive, and like anything else — when mobile technology came out, when social media came out, when e-commerce came out — you can either ignore those things or you could be early adopters of those things and start pioneering the way.” — @JasonMudd9
• “AI works really fast and is a very helpful and powerful tool. The issue is the quality of the tools. The quality of the tool reminds me of an intern, a college student or maybe even a high school student as far as the quality of the work goes.” — @JasonMudd9
• “You really are going to have to take this [AI] rough draft, and I emphasize the rough in it, and finesse it, tweak it, and modify it to get it to where it needs to be production ready.” — @JasonMudd9
• “Like what Ronald Reagan said, ‘trust but verify’ — so you need to verify that people are following the policies that you created, and you need to enforce those policies.” — @JasonMudd9
• “We are not using AI to replace the talent that we have at our agency or the talent assigned to your account. Instead, we’re using AI to keep those people doing what is called their highest and best use — HBU.” — @JasonMudd9
• “AI is a rough draft; it’s an entry-level virtual assistant giving you some guidance.” — @JasonMudd9
• “If [you] can’t give input properly, [you’re] never going to be able to use AI properly.” — @JasonMudd9
