🌍 AI Isn’t Happening to Us—It’s Up to Us! 💡


AI isn’t just “happening” to us. It’s something we’re creating.

That’s the key message from Dr. Fei-Fei Li, a leading visionary in AI and author of The Worlds I See: Curiosity, Exploration, and Discovery at the Dawn of AI.

Dr. Li is clear: if we want AI to advance humanity, we need to build AI with intention, responsibility, and a commitment to making the world better.

Treating AI like "just another tech revolution" would be an "intolerable mistake"!

Taking advantage of AI’s power is not just riding a new technological wave, it's an opportunity to amplify creativity and fuel human progress.

As a creative person, here’s how embracing AI can expand what’s possible in your creative work—and make a real impact:

  • Amplify Your Creative Process: AI offers ways to expand your creative potential, from ideating faster to experimenting with new forms of expression. It’s not about replacing your creativity. It’s about exploring empowering new ways to bring your visions to life.
    ​
  • Create with Purpose: Keeping humanity’s highest good in mind, you can use AI tools to craft projects that matter, connect, and inspire.
    ​
  • Be Active and Responsible: Follow Fei-Fei Li’s example by participating in government, education, or enterprise efforts to ensure AI is regulated and developed safely.
    ​
  • Build a Better Future: By engaging with AI thoughtfully, you position yourself as a force for positive change. This is creativity in service of a brighter, more connected world.
    ​

If you’re ready to explore how AI can unlock new dimensions of your creativity while making a positive impact, start playing with it. Let’s not just witness AI’s rise—let’s use it to help shape a better future.

I look forward to seeing what you create,
​Don’t die with your creative spark still stuck inside.

For further inspiration, I also HIGHLY recommend Dr. Fei-Fei Li's book. It's a remarkable memoir. Her story is a unique combination of the making of a visionary woman scientist and entrepreneur, an immigrant success story, at the leading edge of human-centered artificial intelligence, and filled with all kinds of illuminating insights. I can't remember being more engaged by a memoir.
