Don’t Hate AI, It’s not the Devil!
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been the subject of much debate and speculation in recent years. Some fear it as a harbinger of job loss and societal upheaval, while others see it as a tool of unparalleled potential. However, amidst these polarizing views, one thing is clear: AI is not the devil it's often made out to be. In fact, it's proving to be a boon for small businesses, helping them streamline operations, enhance efficiency, and drive growth.
Small Business AI Usage Example
Take, for instance, the case of Grover Web Design and their client, My Patent Prints. The latter had a daunting task at hand - extracting patent numbers from over 10,000 images of patent documents. These were not just any documents; they were old, scanned, and difficult for a computer to read. But this is where AI came into play. Grover Web Design employed an image AI to scrutinize each file and determine the patent number.
AI Confidence Score
The AI didn't just spit out results; it also provided a confidence score, indicating how sure it was of each result. Out of the 10,000+ images, only a handful were flagged by the AI as being less than 100% certain. For these few images, manual checks were conducted to ensure accuracy. Thus, AI did the heavy lifting, leaving only a minuscule fraction of the work for humans. This is a prime example of how AI can augment human effort, rather than replace it.
Top ten ways small businesses can leverage AI:
AI IS A TOOL FOR SMALL BUSINESSES!
In conclusion, AI is not a threat but a tool that small businesses can harness to their advantage. It's about time we stop fearing AI and start embracing its potential.
