Humans come with a built-in software bug: we’re scared of anything we don’t understand. (Yes, AI. And yes… taxes 🙂)
Our teammate Raluca Stoica put it perfectly:

A productivity cheat code. A “where has this been my whole career?” moment.
So this Fun Fact Friday, try this:
Be curious. Poke at the unknown. Learn one tiny thing about AI - just enough for your brain to go, “I am, in fact, a tech genius.”
