A couple of situations this week reminded me of the importance of differentiating between \u2018content\u2019 and \u2018context\u2019.<\/p>\n
On the one hand I was listening to a fascinating podcast where Lex Fridman interviewed Yann Lecun, Chief AI Scientist at Meta about the abilities and limitations of AI.<\/p>\n
On the other, I was reviewing communication to provide suggestions to participants from one of my corporate board paper writing programs.<\/p>\n
What fascinated me here was that much of the communication I was reviewing was ‘content' that lacked ‘context'.<\/p>\n
This bothered me because placing content in the right context is not only central to our uniqueness as humans, but essential if we want to engage senior decision makers.<\/p>\n
And yet, I see teams frequently skipping this foundational step in the rush to finish their paper.<\/p>\n
I get that thinking feels slow and that ‘writing' feels like ‘doing', but it reminds me of a comment made by an old boss of mine. “activity does not guarantee impact”.<\/p>\n
With the right inputs, AI can deliver lots of content.<\/p>\n
So far (!) we humans are the only ones that can take ‘content' and add ‘context' to have impact.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s be human.<\/p>\n
I hope that helps.<\/p>\n
More soon.
