Frontier Professionals Leverage AI to Improve Skills and Judgment

This title was summarized by AI from the post below.

✨ "𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴." From Microsoft's 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗲𝘅, published today. (WTI is Microsoft's annual research on how AI is changing work. This year drew on 31,000 workers across 31 countries plus a privacy-preserving look at how people actually use Copilot.) The report defines Frontier Professionals as the people getting the most out of AI at work. What's interesting is how they do it. They're more likely than other AI users to do some work 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 AI to keep their own skills sharp (𝟰𝟯% 𝘃𝘀. 𝟯𝟬%). And they're more likely to 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 before starting work, to decide what should be done by AI versus by a human (𝟱𝟯% 𝘃𝘀. 𝟯𝟯%). 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘱𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦. Not the prompt. Not the agent. The 30 seconds of judgment about whether a thing should be done by a tool at all. Most of the AI-at-work conversation right now is about generation. The thing I'm taking from this report: 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 is becoming more valuable, not less. 🔗 Full report: https://lnkd.in/gk5NiYUc #WorkTrendIndex #FrontierProfessional #FutureOfWork
