The Ground Reality: No One Is Doomed

Two facts in one day that tell me people are [replace with term of choice] about AI.

First, I read about a global firm laying off people in finance in one location, with no mention of AI...
Of course, people are resharing the news without knowing about potential relocation (quietly trendy) or simple cost-reduction efforts due to the current economic landscape.
FUN FACT: I had a meeting with that company a few weeks ago and they are behind in AI and still have plenty of potential for improvement through simple automation.

Then, a bit lower in my feed... An expert in AI-powered outreach automation posting about a visit to a new city and reaching out to humans there who might be interesting to meet.
Nothing is more human than this global outreach... 😅

Disclaimers:
I am not against the technology. We deploy what I see as one of the most mature approaches to AI on the market.
At Capto, all our posts and outreach are human, as we think this is where it makes a difference... The human-to-human connection.

But I am seriously tired of seeing people scare others with technology, talking about doomsday scenarios and how its already too late...
I am on the ground, meeting people. No one is doomed. Start today, its never too late!

Cheers from Marseille to all the human believers out there 🍻
