    Linked – 15 Times to use AI, and 5 Not to

    ByMike McBride January 2, 2025January 16, 2025 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I’ve seen many people in the L&D space talk about using AI for training, and I think there is a place for it. There is also a place for deep learning that isn’t assisted by an AI tool. For instance, I don’t use AI to write for me. As someone who puts out as much written content as I do, you may find that surprising, but I tried it and quickly realized it wasn’t for me. Why? Because the writing process is part of my learning process. Taking information I see or read and trying to share in a way that makes sense to the reader is an integral part of understanding it better. You could argue that this blog is mainly for me, not the readers because as I try to understand legal technology, I must write about it. I need to turn around and explain it.

    Linked – Attorney-Client Privilege Has a Problem: AI Isn’t a Lawyer

    ByMike McBride December 30, 2024December 27, 2024 Reading Time: 1 minute

    If I ask AI to do legal research or provide legal insights, should I assume that the data would be privileged? As the article points out, why would I believe that if no lawyers were involved?

    Linked – AI data readiness: C-suite fantasy, big IT problem

    ByMike McBride December 27, 2024December 27, 2024 Reading Time: 1 minute

    This might seem like a new problem, but it’s an old problem that shows up when trying to do something new. 

    There is a lack of a strategy for data security and data rot. Too many organizations have punted when deciding what data to keep versus delete and haven’t made the hard decisions about implementing data security internally. Now, they want to use AI, but the AI is accessing all that outdated data and exposing the places where security wasn’t correctly implemented. So, it becomes an IT problem to fix.

    Linked – Companies issuing RTO mandates “lose their best talent”

    ByMike McBride December 21, 2024December 21, 2024 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    If you don’t have a solid business reason for your policy, the rest of us will question your ability to make any decisions about the company going forward. Employees who have other options will take them when they don’t trust leadership. 

    Why give them a reason to distrust you?

    Linked – Are public speaking skills a cheat code for IT career success?

    ByMike McBride December 13, 2024December 13, 2024 Reading Time: 1 minute

    No matter how much technical skill you have, eventually, you will have to communicate your knowledge to someone who isn’t as skilled in the technology. If you can’t do that, your career will hit a ceiling. Even if you have no plans to get up in front of an audience, learning how to tell a story, influence others, educate others, etc., will serve you well when you have to explain a complex technical concept to someone. 

    You will have to explain what you know someday. Learn how to do it well.
