Summary
This is part 3 of a 3-part series on prioritization, led by Harry Max, author of Managing Priorities: How to Create Better Plans and Make Smarter Decisions. Part 1 | Part 2 As the hype of Generative AI starts to give way and unprecedented new capabilities go mainstream; prioritization will become both easier and harder. It will become significantly easier because you can converse with a chat agent who can wrangle questions about potential priorities in insanely powerful ways and respond seemingly authoritatively. With access to a vast selection of sorting techniques, frameworks, marketplace simulations, hybrid methods, and other relevant information, AI-enabled solutions will augment our ability to prioritize. But this will put pressure on us as humans to provide the guiding values, ethics, situational awareness, and other information to guide the AI conversation to a productive and sustainable end. The conversation with Former Engineering SVP Mark Interrante will explore the immense power of GenAI to fuel a revolution in prioritization and our ability to create better plans and make smarter decisions.
