My World View on AI

My World View on AI

Every generation believes it is living through extraordinary times, but rarely does a generation truly recognize the magnitude of its moment until history has already recorded it. Today, however, we do not have to wait for hindsight to tell us what we already know in our bones: we are standing at the beginning of a transformation so profound that it will reshape every part of human life. And the heart of this transformation is artificial intelligence.

For many of us, the dominant emotion around AI is fear — fear of losing jobs, fear of irrelevance, fear of being overwhelmed by technology that feels too fast, too powerful, too unfamiliar. I understand that fear. I’ve met thousands of people across industries, different ages, and backgrounds who carry this weight quietly, almost reluctantly. They worry AI is arriving to replace them, to erase the value of all they’ve worked for, to make their hard-earned skills obsolete.

Yet that’s not how I see the future.

My worldview is shaped by a lifetime of watching AI technology evolve, watching it liberate rather than limit, empower rather than erase. To me, AI represents one of the greatest opportunities humanity has ever been handed — the opportunity to reclaim dreams we thought we lost, to rediscover talents we buried beneath responsibility, to unlock abilities that lived only in our visions.

For so many of us, life evolved into a series of constraints. Maybe you wanted to be a musician but didn’t have the time to train. Maybe you dreamed of being an engineer, a doctor, an artist, a business owner, but life pushed you toward obligations that paid the bills rather than nourished the soul. Over time, those dreams felt distant, childish even. You told yourself you missed your chance, that you are now too old, too busy, too underqualified.

That’s before AI arrived — and with it, the rules have changed.

Why? How?

Well, for the first time in human history, you can possess expert-level capabilities without spending years becoming the expert. You can create art without spending years mastering techniques. You can structure a business without a business degree. You can build systems without knowing how to code. You can write, design, plan, organize, analyze, strategize — all with a partner that fills every skill gap instantly.

To me…

AI does not reduce human value.
Instead, AI accelerates human potential.

The limitation is no longer your training, your age, your schedule, or your background. The only limitation now is your imagination — the courage to believe that the dream you once had when you were younger, might still be possible.

That, to me, is the real story of AI.
A story of redemption, not replacement.
A story of expansion, not extinction.
A story of humans becoming more human, not less.

Every strong technology in history democratized something: the printing press democratized knowledge, the camera democratized memory, the internet democratized communication.

AI democratizes skill.

And in doing so, it democratizes opportunity…

That is the foundation of my worldview — a belief that AI is the ultimate tool for reclaiming lost dreams, accelerating success, elevating creativity, and transforming ordinary lives into extraordinary ones.

This short excerpt from the book “Transformation” is just the beginning. Proof is in the how and I intend to prove everything I just claimed in my world view of AI throughout the work.

To me, the future belongs not to those who fear AI, but to those who embrace it as a partner, helping them succeed in one of the greatest projects they will ever work on: their transformation.

Stay tuned for more excerpts from the book “Transformation”.

What is the S.O.L.V.E. Method?

The S.O.L.V.E. Method is a proprietary five-step process designed to accelerate the transition from identifying problems to implementing solutions within a company, often at a cost comparable to that of traditional proposals. This method has been proven through numerous successful implementations, leading to significant improvements and substantial return on investment. Below is a summary of each step along with their impact:

Step 1: SOURCE the Challenge

Identifying the true source of a persistent company challenge is crucial. Often, these sources are not obvious and may relate to deeply ingrained, "invisible" issues that cause repeated failures of attempted solutions. This step involves using specialized tools and certified solution agents to deeply understand and unmask the root causes of problems.

Step 2: OBSERVE Company Experts and Working Style

Traditional methods like surveys or interviews can miss context crucial for fully understanding challenges. By directly observing how experts work within their environments, this method uncovers additional challenges, significantly increasing the effectiveness of the solutions proposed.

Step 3: LEVERAGE Existing and Past Company Solutions

Often, the necessary solutions have already been identified by company experts but failed during implementation due to various oversights. This step revisits these solutions, aiming for a win-win outcome by ensuring all key stakeholders see the benefit, supported by a cross-functional team of Solution Agents.

Step 4: VALIDATE the Solution with a Minimal Viable Pilot

Before full-scale implementation, a minimal viable pilot is conducted to test the solution in a smaller segment of the company. This approach helps to de-risk the solution, adjust as necessary, and demonstrate early benefits to gain wider organizational support.

Step 5: EMPOWER Teams to Champion the Solution for Sustainability

The final step involves scaling the solution and training teams to manage the new processes. The goal is to make the solution sustainable without ongoing external support, allowing continuous improvement from within the organization.

Impact and AI Integration

Implementing the S.O.L.V.E. Method has led to over 355% ROI across various projects, amounting to significant cost avoidance and enhanced operational efficiency. By coupling this method with AI, companies can further sustain and enhance the gains achieved. AI tools can ensure standardized application of new processes and continuous improvement, maintaining the benefits long-term.

In summary, for businesses considering strategic changes, the S.O.L.V.E. Method offers a structured approach to tackling longstanding issues with innovative solutions that are both effective and sustainable. Stakeholders are encouraged to consider this method not only to solve current problems but to transform challenges into opportunities for growth and improvement. The integration of AI can further leverage this method by ensuring consistency and fostering an environment of continual enhancement and adaptation.

How to make AI secure for any sized enterprise.

AI can be very powerful yet without the right controls in place, it can detract staff away from their jobs rather than enhance their performance. The key is to ensure information from the AI is securely provided to the correct associate that has the necessary permissions to review the answers from the AI.

This article will address some of these security concerns and how AI can be implemented to add value in a secure and compliant manner.

As a special bonus, a white paper on the detailed steps of how to apply AI security can be accessed through this newsletter!

What are Sources of the risks in using AI

In contact with inner management circles, there is a growing anxiety with AI as more leaders are getting worried that this technology, which is estimated by the Bank of America to $15.7 trillion by 2030 (BofA Reference Article), is passing them by. Yet, many still remain on the sidelines, as they grapple with the potential risks associated with letting AI disseminate information to their organization with little or no control.

In fact, Mckinsey recently conducted a flash survey of more than 100 organizations and found that “63 percent of respondents characterize the implementation of gen AI as a “high” or “very high” priority. Yet 91 percent of these respondents don’t feel “very prepared” to do so in a responsible manner” (McKinsey Reference Article). This is indicative of many companies that we regularly converse with. The executives are wary of unleashing AI without controls and for good reason.

These are just some of the risks involved with implementing AI:

AI will divulge sensitive corporate information.

It’s a real concern. If not properly controlled with limited access to applications, data lakes and databases, unvetted data can eventually make it to the AI and be distributed without anyone knowing it. This poses a great risk, especially around trade secrets.

Unauthorized personnel will get access to data.

Even if the data is controlled, it is still possible for associates to be given access to information that was not intended simply because the AI had access to it. This can happen without the associate or those in charge realizing that this information is being disseminated.

Associates can be misled by uncontrolled AI responses.

If AI is let loose without any controls, the chance that “false narratives” can enter company discourse is high. A recent paper published in AI and Ethics stated that there may be “significant cyber security threats generative AI models pose, including potential ‘backdoors’ in AI models that could compromise user data or the risk of ‘poisoned’ AI models producing false results” (AI and Ethics Reference Article). That’s why it’s so important to ensure there are controls AND security in place when implementing AI. The ways that can be accomplished will be discussed later in this article.

AI will require new IT security infrastructure-structure and drain many resources.

There is a common perception that these complex AI systems require critical security infra-structure to be built, specific expertise hired and modifications to existing systems required in order for AI to be benefit. This belief cements the thinking that AI drains resources, time and money that could be used to just get the job done in the traditional manner.

AI learnings and data can leak outside the private corporate network.

Above all, many associates and even their leaders are “quietly” concerned that even the perception of AI implemented in their department could result in layoffs as executives work to trim costs to increase company profitability. This stark outcome hangs on the heads of many leaders I speak with as they try to balance their team’s workload while not being left behind by the advancing AI technology.

There are many more security concerns that need to be addressed with AI. The list above is by no means inclusive of all of them. What’s even more profound than the risks are the way there are perceived in the business community. The next section will address that.

Observations on the Security of AI

In consultation with many large and mid-sized companies, it is clear that security is on their minds when they think of AI. There is always the worry that AI will go wild and uncontrolled interaction with their staff will result in chaos in the workplace. Some professionals I spoke to stated, and I paraphrase:

“What if the AI responds in an inappropriate way?”

“How can we control the narrative of the AI to ensure it defines company terms the way we want it to?”

“What if the use of our private and restricted AI encourage associates to use the unrestricted public once’s to get more functionality?”

“How can we limit the AI about mis-informing our associates on regulations that then puts the company at a compliance risk?”

“AI records question-answer conversations that pose a security risk depending on who has access to them.”

The trouble is that the concerns above are valid and without a secure, controlled AI, a company could be facing one or more of the risks mentioned. The next section and white paper attached goes into some steps that can be used to make AI implementation safer for an enterprise.

Leveraging High Performing AI in a Secure Manner

The common misconception that we often hear, that a company controlled, restricted AI is less performing than the open public ones is not always the case. In fact, if designed and implemented properly, the AI can unleash incredible productivity as outlined in our previous newsletter (Higgins Newsletter Article 1).

Fortunately there are lots of non-technical AI security material like the one produced by the NCSC that provides guidance on how to safely proceed with AI (NCSC Reference Article).

We will highlight what we believe to be some of the key points to address to balance AI security with performance. Some are obvious while others are less intuitive than our clients expect:

• Review AI Security Risks Reduction Strategies

• Implement Machine Learning Security Measures

• Secure Model Training Practices

• Audit and Monitor Machine Learning Models

• Design and Implement Cybersecurity Strategy for AI Systems

• Ensure Privacy Protection in AI

• Utilize Privacy-Preserving Technologies for AI Applications

• Install AI-Powered Malware Detection

• Conduct Ethical Hacking in AI Systems

• Use Proven Ethical Hacking Techniques for AI Security

• Ensure Responsible Disclosure of AI Security

• Design and Review AI Security Checklist for Enterprises

A detailed Higgins AI Directive White Paper can be downloaded and will address many of these topics in the list.

Artificial Intelligence security is critical for success and must accompany any sized enterprise AI strategy.

The next section and this weekly Newsletter will provide practical, implementable use case examples of how high performing AI can be applied using these security points to validate its use in everyday work life.

Can AI replace your job ?

There is a growing concern that AI will start taking jobs - in some cases, individuals and businesses are shunning it for the sake of waiting until the benefits can be better established and most risks minimized.

This episode will address some of these concerns and begin unraveling the potentially positive impact of AI on jobs.

What’s the Source of the Fear of AI

AI is slowly taking over many manual tasks like writing summaries, researching topics amongst many other high-energy long winded tasks. Some capabilities are more advanced, yet in the majority of cases, the AI is removing hours and even days of tedious work, making our work more efficient. At least that’s the promise.

Yet even though many can grasp some aspect of what AI can do, it usually evokes a sense of uncertainty and even fear in some. After some discussions with companies, executives and different subject matter experts. there are several reasons for this. The most probable sources for the sometimes tepid response to AI can be segmented into:

Lack of clarity of how AI can be specifically beneficial.

While there are many examples of how AI can help, many don’t know how it can specifically help them at work or at home. Apart from being a glorified search engine, note summarizer, information gatherer, the actual specific use case for how to use AI is not always obvious.

Too many risks for unproven rewards.

Many executives have informed me that the risks of data leaks, erroneous or misleading answers and overall distractions from doing the day to day work required for their teams to meet the deliverables are huge roadblocks for why AI needs to be put on hold until it’s more mature.

Time and cost of implementation.

There is a common perception that these complex AI systems require critical infra-structure rot be built, specific expertise hired and modifications to existing systems required in order for AI to be benefit. This drains resources, time and money that could be used to just get the job done in the traditional manner.

Loss of staff and jobs due to AI implementation.

Above all, many associates and even their leaders are “quietly” concerned that even the perception of AI implemented in their department could result in layoffs as executives work to trim costs to increase company profitability. This stark outcome hangs on the heads of many leaders I speak with as they try to balance their team’s workload while not being left behind by the advancing AI technology.

Observations on the Impact of AI

Many I speak to fear that AI can impact almost any job and so it’s difficult to know whether it’s impact is positive or negative.

While many of the concerns above are evident in professionals, the major, overarching concern is loss of staff and control. Since AI works at such a rapid rate and advances without any seeming limits, letting AI enter the workflow could make the team dependent, lose control of outcomes and expendable at some point.

Some professionals I spoke to stated, and I paraphrase:

“There is way to control the information being inputted and released using the AI.”

“Love the tech. Just can’t see a reasonable use case that makes sense given the early stage of this technology.”

“The technology is too young and wild for enterprise-level regulated operations.”

“I need my team to think for themselves and not be mislead by an AI that doesn’t really think, just regurgitate.”

“We’re just going to wait until the AI fads settle and the technology gets serious.”

Another business owner just used one word to respond to the suggestion that AI could help their business.

The e-mail that was promptly returned just said,” No! ”

There is still so much more that has been communicated, yet these are the most common thoughts collected thus far on why AI is avoided in some organizations.

Leveraging AI in Positive Ways

There are many ways to leverage AI in constructive ways. Chances are, you haven’t heard about most of them. The key distinction between many applications is whether they enhance the way you work or whether they remove a critical aspect of your daily tasks that should be done by you.

How can we leverage AI in a positive way? The answer depends on the job. A breakdown of the major job activities are outlined as follows:

So according to the Harvard Business Review, their 3-year study revealed that knowledge workers (like scientists, engineers etc.) spent “ 41 percent of their workday on <discretionary activities> that require little of their specialized expertise” (HBR Reference).

Imagine if AI could reduce 20% of that work ?  Just 20% could give you back almost one day of the week - a full day to innovate further, to apply the true expertise you were hired for, to do the work you are passionate about.

That’s the power of AI. Big picture, that’s what it can do for you - to give you the space and time to do the work you were meant to do.

So can AI take your job ?  Not really. Only you can create and innovate in your profession. Yet it can take away the <discretionary activities> we call “Low Value-Added Tasks” that require little or no specialized expertise that the Harvard Business Review was studying for over three years (HBR Reference).

The next section and this weekly Newsletter will provide practical, implementable use case examples of how AI can tackle these more menial tasks to validate it’s use in everyday work.
