Yep, AI is cheaper than any Homo sapiens. But there’s a price to pay for all that cheap work.
Have they sold you on the idea that AI is a Swiss Army knife that enables you to fire most of your employees and just do everything yourself with the help of your bot buddies? Why bother paying a copywriter, a designer, or a customer service rep when you can have all of it done in a couple of clicks, right?
Well, not exactly.
You might get away with it short-term, but soon, people will start sensing something is off, and they’ll know exactly when they’re reading ChatGPT’s ideas and not your own. So how do you fix that?
Maybe your team isn’t perfect or as efficient as AI, but instead of sacking all Homo sapiens and turning your company’s heart into steel, consider the unique skills humans offer.
Yes, we cost more — but we pay off.
Because what we bring to the table can’t be measured. Sure, numbers can tell us a lot, but you won’t be able to put a metric on genuine human connection. And at the end of the day, that’s precisely what’s going to drive your long-term success. Now, don’t get me wrong — you should still use AI, but make sure you're pairing it with a high-quality human.
Because humans connect with humans.
And when we sense all that AI and a lack of authenticity, we’ll eventually turn to other humans for the products and services we need. So before you go and fire everyone, think about this: Will replacing people with AI be worth the savings?
Then go and invest in your workforce wisely, and don’t let the robots take over the world.
