AI isn’t just a tool—it’s a force reshaping the way we work, connect, and live. The question isn’t if AI will transform society, but how we will respond. At GCM, we believe engaging with AI isn’t just a professional choice—it’s a civic duty. If small- and medium-sized businesses and organizations don’t take an active role in adopting and shaping AI, the future of this transformative technology will be left to a select few. This mission drives everything we do. We’ve presented to and trained thousands of professionals to use off-the-shelf #AI to amplify their strengths, align with their goals, and ensure they have a seat at the table as AI transforms our world. ?? Since the release of Zach’s recent TEDxHiltonHead talk, we’ve heard diverse perspectives: ? Some are diving into the wave and riding it. ? Others are waiting, watching, and assessing. ? Many are navigating somewhere in between. Where do you stand? Are you riding the wave, waiting on the shore, or finding your balance in the current? Let’s shape the future of AI together. ?? A huge congratulations to our co-founder Zach Giglio for delivering such an insightful and powerful TEDx talk! We’re proud to have a leader so passionate about making AI accessible for all. https://lnkd.in/eZ_bjNg5 #TEDx #TEDxHiltonHead #ArtificialIntelligence

A study released this week by Harvard Business Review highlights how generative AI is already reshaping the job market, with significant short-term effects on automation-prone roles (e.g., writing; software, app, and web development; engineering). This research underscores the urgency of adapting to AI’s transformative effects. AI isn’t just a tool for big corporations—it’s a force that’s reshaping how work gets done. Jobs in fields like writing and coding are already evolving, and businesses need to evolve with them. This means embracing AI to improve productivity, reduce costs, and reimagine workflows, while simultaneously upskilling teams to collaborate effectively with these tools. At GCM, we firmly believe that ignoring AI won’t stop its progress. Instead, it’s time to lean in, learn, and lead. Equip your business, empower your team, and position yourself to thrive in the AI-driven future. The shifts are already happening—don’t get left behind.

This past weekend, Zach Giglio took the TEDxHiltonHead stage to share a powerful analogy: the AI wave is coming, and we each have a choice in how we respond. Do we get out of the water, dive through it, or ride it? Zach’s message to the audience was clear: this wave presents us with an opportunity to find our unique spot on it, shaping the future of AI in ways that align with our values and goals. He captivated the crowd, urging everyone to engage with AI intentionally—not just for personal convenience but as a civic duty to shape its role in our lives. Join us in celebrating Zach’s TEDx debut and embracing this wave together! We’re so proud of you Zach. Congratulations! #TEDxHiltonHead #AI #AIinBusiness
