It depends on the field and also the expertise of the user. For example, I used to be an engineer but no longer code. So my skills are rusty. Having something like co-pilot is amazing for me, where I don't need to search stackoverflow for every step at the same time, I have decent knowlege enough that I'm not blindly copy pasting and hoping something magical would happen. I personally think that is the sweet spot for whom the productivity gains would be massive - for someone who is neither advanced nor novice

@priyankc I like that you define AI as co-pilot!

Occasionally it catalyzes productivity and creativity, occasionally it inhibits. While A.I is capable of analyzing large amounts of data and identifying patterns, it cannot come up with completely new ideas on its own. However, it has assisted me in generating new ideas by providing insights and identifying patterns that I would have otherwise missed. However, there are certain skills and activities that are crucial for idea development, such as attending conferences, learning new skills, and taking time to reflect which A.I cannot replicate. These activities involve real-life experiences and personal interactions that AI cannot mimic, and therefore, cannot fully replace the human element in idea generation.

@dsarkar We need to find a balance between AI and human input to get the best productivity and creativity.

AI is definitely improving my productivity for me. As for creativity, not so much yet. Though it can give you some ideas that you can iterate on.
Gizem Nur Keskin
@bjarnbronsveld Will take a look! Thank you, Bjarn :)
Gizem Nur Keskin
@bjarnbronsveld Creativity still needs some human guidance. And I think it is great to see the human touch because it adds unique perspective and personality to the output.
Bjarn Bronsveld
@gizemnurkeskin Exactly :) I think a great example of this was Casey Neistat's recent video (youtube.com/watch?v=Ygj9vBF_WUk) He created a video using AI and in the end reflects on it.

When you first start using it, you think it really saved your life, but after a while, you realize how valuable productivity and creativity are. If you get used to AI tools, it is inevitable to lose a great deal of your productivity and creativity, but you should learn to use AI tools as a good assistant. You cannot expect them to do everything for you. The most important thing that sets you apart and makes you different is your creativity. Especially if you are doing a marketing business, you should not forget this :)

It will definitely give a boost to our productivity and creativity as it can give us a starting point, suggest new ideas and ways when we are stuck, or give a finishing touch in the final stages of our product or ideas.

AI has the potential to impact productivity and creativity positively and significantly. By automating routine tasks, AI can free up time and mental energy for more complex and creative work. AI can also assist in generating ideas and solutions.
Gizem Nur Keskin
@lokeshjoshi31 That's a great point! AI can definitely help us think outside the box and come up with more creative solutions.

Bitting on it changing the game completely, I can see it enabling one person teams to execute at a much higher rate. A little product we've launched today, would love your thought and feedback: https://www.producthunt.com/post...

The impact of AI on productivity and creativity is complex and depends on a variety of factors, such as the nature of the work being done and how AI is being used. While AI has the potential to boost productivity and enhance creativity, it's important to carefully consider the implications of its use and ensure that it's being used in a way that benefits workers and society as a whole.

@sakshi_gahlawat To achieve the highest levels of productivity and creativity, we must strike a balance between AI and human input!

I have become better at asking questions.Gives a direction to my creative activites
Gizem Nur Keskin
@shubhangi_sharma5 It really helps in that sense!
Deniz SutaÅŸ
By responding almost instantly with high accuracy, it helps me think faster and quickly execute tasks. In that sense it not only increases my productivity, but also supports my creativity since it allows me to move on to and think about the next thing significantly faster.
Lydia Cohen
They increase productivity and inspire creative thinking. However, we need to be suspicious of their responses, including their accuracy and repeatability.
Gizem Nur Keskin
@lydia_cohen I agree! It's crucial to evaluate the accuracy of AI-generated results before depending on them entirely.

Too much Chatgpt answers lol
AI can increase productivity. And it can democratize design where a lot of people can do a lot of things that they are not skilled at. But having knowledge on the principles of the specific domain will help them be more efficient.
Gizem Nur Keskin
@nithincp I agree. While AI can automate some jobs and streamline some processes, domain-specific expertise is still required to fully utilize its capabilities and deliver high-quality content.
Kulsoom Awan
It increases productivity but definitely kills creativity. People are more relied on AI than their own minds/creativity.
Gizem Nur Keskin
@kulsoom_awan For some people, it definitely kills productivity. But if we were to use it as a tool that helps people be more creative, not as an alternative for it, we would master this art.
Kaizen Order
It increases productivity for sure. Being able to get an output in a matter of seconds rather than hours will definitely help get tasks done quicker. For creativity, it's a mixed bag. One, you could use it as inspiration but on the other side, your originality is impacted because you are building on what AI has created.
Nuno Reis
Both in a positive manner. It is now easier to find inspiration, even when you don't know where to look for it you can ask an AI for place to get it from. This in general helps my creative side. As for productivity, everything that is text based can now be made easier, faster and in a better manner if you know how to use GPT to aid you.
Nuno Reis
@gizemnurkeskin Agreed, but I think that is true for every tool :) And that's what GPT is in the end, just a tool that can really help you if you use it properly :D
Gizem Nur Keskin
@nuno_ms_reis One has to know how to use it!

We have a platform that analyzes speech and emotions, examines your progress, and provides coaching and feedback on it. I suggest you take a look at https://spiky.ai/ :)

For me personally, AI has helped me with being more productive and creative, especially when I am suffering from process overload, where do I start, and creative blocks. It has assisted me with getting my thoughts together, figure out better ways to create and flow through the processes that I have in order to create. As time goes on, it may become more of a crutch than a benefit, however, I will work through that when I get to it. For now, I am whizzing through projects and I don't mind it.
Matthias Strafinger
It will definitely increase productivity. Creativity will be a weird thing. On the one hand, I strongly believe it will lead to a kind of democratization of creativity (normal folks will be able to create high-end content more easily). On the other hand, we will see mediocre and standard content flooding the internet (what I call the Canva effect).
Gizem Nur Keskin
@matthias_strafinger AI definitely needs some careful consideration while being used because I am starting to get sick of seeing generic and unoriginal content 😅
Axel Villamil
@matthias_strafinger great response! I completely agree with the democratization of creativity and Canva effect. I think this is where the creatives need to now use AI as a baseline and use it as an opportunity. On the other hand, it's also beautiful to see how AI will unlock the capabilities of people's creativity that are limited by their technical abilities. It's more "how limitless can you think?" exciting time.
