Today’s Thoughts ☠️

Hey there 👋,

How is it Thursday already? Time flies when you’re locked in a room staring at data to create the ultimate report for L&D pros. Well, it does for me, anyway.

This mid-week delivery focuses on:

It’s Data Time

As an L&D professional, I’ve been watching the AI arms race and the conversations around it with curiosity for the last year.

Some days I’m greeted with euphoric news of generative artificial intelligence saving me hours of precious time. Whilst on other days, I’m greeted with doomsday predictions that involve Arnie’s Terminator smashing down my office door and commanding me to ‘go with him if I want to live’.

It’s a strange paradox to live in.

As we navigate the journey together, I've been on the hunt for specific data on how L&D teams and pros (like you) feel about this new wave of technology in the workflow. But, I couldn't find anything. Not anything meaningful anyway.

So, I spoke with over 130 L&D professionals to gather their thoughts and feelings on AI.

Together, we'll unpack what we learnt, uncover useful insights and tactical next steps we can take as an industry.

Let's dive in, friend (hit ‘reply’ to share your thoughts with me on this).

1️⃣ 3 tools to avoid pointless meetings

The folks from Atlassian found that a massive $37 billion a year is the cost of unnecessary meetings in the USA alone. That means the average American wastes about 31 hours a month in unproductive meetings!

As a society, we’ve taken something useful (at one point) and turned it into an ego-driven event to make ourselves feel relevant.

2️⃣ The tech that’s shaping the future of learning

In Tuesday’s regular edition of the newsletter, we talked about cutting through the noise of the boundless sea of learning technology.

Given the times, you would think generative AI is the only piece of technology in town but for L&D teams, this isn’t true. Here’s a tour of the upcoming landscape of technology that will excite and no doubt take over our lives.
