AI and Industries

AI good. AI is helpful but the rise of Artificial intelligence has the potential to disrupt various industries and businesses, leading to the decline or transformation of some traditional roles and practices. Some industries and businesses that may be significantly impacted include:

Customer Service
 AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants can handle many customer inquiries and support tasks, potentially reducing the need for human customer service representatives.

Transportation
 The development of autonomous vehicles could disrupt industries such as taxi services, trucking, and delivery services, as AI takes over driving tasks.

Retail 
 AI-powered e-commerce platforms and personalized shopping experiences could change the way people shop, potentially reducing the need for traditional brick-and-mortar stores and retail workers.

Manufacturing
AI and robotics are increasingly used in manufacturing, leading to more automation and potentially reducing the need for manual labor in some areas.

Finance
 AI is transforming the finance industry through automated trading, fraud detection, and customer service, potentially reducing the need for some financial analysts and customer service roles.

Healthcare
 AI is being used in healthcare for tasks such as diagnostics, personalized medicine, and administrative tasks, which could impact the roles of healthcare professionals and administrative staff.

Legal Services:
 AI-powered tools for legal research, contract analysis, and document review could change the way legal services are delivered, potentially reducing the need for some legal professionals.

Education
 AI-powered online learning platforms and personalized learning experiences could change the way education is delivered, potentially reducing the need for traditional classroom-based teaching in some areas.

While AI has the potential to disrupt these industries and businesses, it also presents opportunities for innovation and new ways of working. Many jobs are likely to evolve rather than disappear completely, as AI and humans work together in new ways to drive efficiency and productivity.

The world needs the Gifts and Skills that only you have

 TAP THE UNTAPPED. RELEASE THE RESERVOIR. Learn more at the Ransford Online School. Your life has the potential to fulfill your purpose. If, however, you imprison that potential, you rob your life of its purpose and fulfillment.  You and every other individual on this planet possess an awesome treasure. Too much of this treasure is buried every day, untapped and untouched, in the cemeteries of our world.  Much talent, skill and creativity have been lost to the world for want of a little courage. Many obscure men and women enter eternity pregnant with potential, with a still-born purpose. Living with ability brings responsibility. Dying with ability reveals irresponsibility. Everything in creation was designed to function on the simple principle of receiving and releasing.

Worldview Matters

Worldviews are rules, values, beliefs and biases that an individual customer brings to buying situation.  If Jude got completely screwed the last time he bought a car from a used-car salesman, the worldview he has when visiting a dealership four years later is a little different than that of someone who is buying her third car in four years from the same place. If Nkechi sees her job as purchasing agent for a big company as one where she should avoid risks, she’ll view that new salesperson in her office very differently than if her understanding of her job is that she should cut costs by innovating and trying new alternatives. Different people, different worldviews. People can see the same data and make a totally different decision. Worldview Affects What's bought ! People don’t buy what we sell. They buy or want to buy what it will do for them. They want the way it will make them feel. What we sell is a means to an end. They are roads to achieve...
