Thank you Dan Collins for your time shared with me in a pleasant conversation about several topics, about AI but also about your life and professional experience.
Dan Collins has a rich personal and professional history, having lived in many countries like Ireland, Canada, France, the United States, and China. He has worked in various fields, especially in telecom, and brings a broad perspective to his insights. With extensive experience in consulting, Dan has helped many companies worldwide, often stepping in when projects were in trouble.
AI: first thoughts
He emphasised the importance of asking “why” to understand the reasons behind actions and improve processes, joking that asking “why” “can sometimes break AI or make you want to rip your hair out.”
Dan believes that most AI in business is overhyped and not very useful. He says 90% of AI is talk and doesn’t do much except in some areas like medical diagnostics. He thinks AI has significant limits because it can’t understand human feelings and jokes or create new ideas.
Key Insights
AI Hype vs. Reality: AI is hyped as a groundbreaking technology, but its practical relativity to business use is supposedly quite limited. Good evidence for effective use is seen in a field such as medical diagnostics, offering a chance for AI to bring tangible benefits.

Human Nuances Matter: ?AI still misses those nuances of human behaviour, such as body language and sarcasm, which are so crucial for good communication and imperative for sound business decisions.
Originality: A major drawback of AI is that it does not possess originality. For it to graduate into being a good business tool in the future, it must rise from just being able to report back information to the employer to produce innovative and creative solutions.
Future of AI in Business: For AI to do anything in the future for businesses, it needs to have some base of understanding and creativity that a human would have. If these two qualities are taken out, artificial intelligence will just become a mediocre task tool rather than the stimulus for major stepping stones.
Consulting Industry’s Flaws: This is one of the failures of the consultancy industry—for many, it shuns down new ideas because consultancy relies too much on repetitive methods and AI for routine tasks, producing mediocre results and not innovative solutions.
Thank you, Dan Collins , for the talk and reflections about your field, AI, and share your meaningful thoughts

5 个月Yup, seems like Dan, yourself (and I) are all threading the same approach through the eyes of many AI needles of myths and practicalities. The first step? Learn what sewing is, how to sew, and why, what and how you intend to sew.

5 个月There is a long way for AI to go, if we actually want it to get there? I'm sure the pace will quicken. Maybe we should be aiming AI to be different to us, it seems strange we are always trying to make robots/AI in our evolution not something totally different
