My greatest reluctance to use it is that I don't want to outsource the practice of finding the right words and concepts to share my human thoughts and experiences. I need that muscle to be strong. It's an important capacity to protect as a public speaker, because you can't rely on AI when you're face to face.

Love the topic and your approach to it.

I had similar issues with my co-founder. He’s a coder and was reluctant to use AI tool (the most popular rn is GitHub Co-Pilot) because it “can’t do anything serious/complex”. Thought he’d never actually tried it.

I had 2 arguments:

1/ Saving time. I said developers with less experience do the same tasks (even if only simple ones) much faster than he does. So he’s at a competitive disadvantage. Plus, maybe it can’t do anything complex fully but it sure can make it easier.

2/ The tool is evolving and by the time it CAN do “serious” things, he won’t be ready because he won’t have any experience with it. I added a bit of FOMO basically.

Still not sure it worked, but I think it’s the right path.
