AI now thinks before it speaks!! So what are you thinking?
We’re absolutely on a roll in our AI journey! Over the past few months, you’ve picked up some incredible new tools - Perplexity AI, Scribe, Gamma.app and of course ChatGPT
You should be really proud of yourself for embracing this learning process, staying curious, and constantly expanding your skillset. It’s not always easy to keep pushing forward, but your drive to learn and adapt is what sets you apart. Keep that curiosity alive—there’s so much more to discover!
This week’s newsletter is dedicated to one of the coolest advancements in AI that we’ve seen in a while—ChatGPT's latest version, o1-Preview. It's smarter, it's more thoughtful, and it's actually changing how AI interacts with us on a very human level.
If you're curious about how this new version is different from its predecessor (GPT-4) and how it can be used in real-world scenarios like HR, you’re in the right place!
So, what’s the big deal with o1-Preview?
ChatGPT-4 is great at pulling in information and delivering answers at lightning speed, which is super helpful when you're looking for a quick solution. But have you ever noticed that sometimes it feels like GPT-4 just jumps into answering right away? Like, it doesn’t always think before it speaks?
Well, that's where o1-Preview comes in.
This new model is designed to THINK before it SPEAKS, much like how a human would pause and process a question before responding.
About o1-Preview:
Deliberative Thinking: Unlike GPT-4, which often starts responding immediately, o1-Preview takes a moment to "think" about the question, resulting in more thoughtful, contextually relevant responses.
Improved Reasoning: It doesn't just provide answers; it considers multiple facets of a question, making the responses more complex and nuanced.
More Human-like Conversations: Conversations feel more natural because the AI processes and pauses, just like humans do in a real conversation.
In essence, o1-Preview is evolving the AI-human interaction by reducing the mechanical feel and making the exchange feel more organic. This has far-reaching applications, especially in fields where deep context and thoughtful answers are critical, such as HR, education, and healthcare.
Why Does This Matter?
It’s bringing us closer to having an AI that doesn’t feel like you’re talking to a MACHINE.
It understands, pauses, and responds like a human—leading to better, richer conversations. And when you apply that to areas like HR, customer service, or even content creation, you get a tool that adds real value by thinking before speaking.
Ultimately, ChatGPT o1-Preview isn’t just about providing answers—it’s about offering insight. It doesn’t rush to give you the first response that pops into its database. Instead, it evaluates the question, processes it thoughtfully, and then gives you something that feels less robotic and more like having a conversation with a colleague who really gets it.
Real Life Example
Let’s say you’ve introduced a new Referral Bonus policy where employees earn a 2X bonus for referring diverse candidates. Now, you need to write this policy and ensure that it aligns with your existing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies. Instead of manually revising everything, you can let ChatGPT o1-Preview do the heavy lifting.
You start by providing ChatGPT with both the new Referral Bonus policy and your current DEI policy document. Then, you ask it to revise the DEI policy to incorporate the new referral incentive.
With o1-Preview’s ability to think critically, it will carefully analyze both documents, identify any gaps or inconsistencies, and seamlessly update the DEI policy to ensure alignment with your new referral bonus structure.
It’s that simple! ChatGPT will make sure both policies are in sync, ensuring your HR policies remain cohesive, thoughtful, and aligned with your DEI goals—all without manual back-and-forth.
To wrap things up, it's clear that we’re in the midst of an exciting AI journey. There’s always something new to learn, and you’re well on your way to mastering this ever-evolving landscape.
Until next time, keep pushing those boundaries and enjoy the journey!
