AI tools and platforms are a massive disruptor in our professional, creative and personal lives. For instance, AI art platforms like Midjourney and DALL-E 2 have garnered raving fans and bitter enemies. Many writers feel threatened by AI tools like ChatGPT, that can quickly and accurately produce content, while photographers, filmmakers and other creatives feel similarly threatened by AI tools that can quickly generate visuals and videos.

Getting ready for performance after summer recess

Have you achieved what you were aiming for during the first half of 2021? Whether you have or you haven’t, Summertime is a good moment to assess where you’re at right now, and how you’d like to proceed in the upcoming months after Summer recess. I like choosing a different moment than the New Year to set my goals and planned actions anyway.
