People matter

Marketing expert Robert Seeger, who on Wednesday
Digital Days opened with his lecture, taking a wooden Pinocchio puppet onto the stage. This is representative of the fact that many people today are guided by algorithms and artificial intelligence and do not trust enough in human abilities such as creative thinking and action.

There is no better way to illustrate it. Today we google everything and look for every answer on our cell phones. But in the end, despite all the digital advances, it is always the human factor that counts. And the individual decisions that you cannot and should not let AI make for you. Because only they produce the unpredictable – and not average.

Unnoticed helpful

There is no way around artificial intelligence (AI). This must also be recognized by those who immediately fall into apocalyptic patterns as soon as there is talk of machines imitating human behavior.

AI is not a new phenomenon. Industrial companies have been relying on predictive maintenance for years in order to use systems for longer and save costs. Manufacturers of navigation devices use AI to guide drivers from A to B. And modern cell phone speech recognition is based on it.

In short: AI is already making our everyday lives easier without us noticing. And we should always use common sense if something seems Spanish to us anyway. Even an AI cannot prohibit this.
