It's a matter of time before those are mainstream, If you're a woman in business, whether you're self employed or W2 with a company, artificial intelligence is no longer something that you can think is "way out in the future." The future is NOW and if you want to be ahead of the game, you need your head in the game, not hidden; ignoring all of the technology that's being created to replace human labor.Some of it is good and some of it is kind of creepy...but all of it is coming, whether we like it or not.Take 18 minutes to listen to this episode and decide for yourself whether or not your job is secure or if AI can replace any part of it.Support the show
