        Will AI replace jobs

        The AI language model, has to be viewed as the internet in the 1990s and the mobile in the 2000s but I can tell you that AI has the potential to automate some of the work that is currently done by people. It's crucial to remember nevertheless that not all jobs are equally vulnerable to automation. Most jobs will have it as an assistant.

        There are some jobs that are less likely to be mechanised in the near future, such as those that demand creativity, critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and interpersonal skills.Yet, positions that require manual work, data processing, and repetitive operations are more likely to be mechanised.

        It's also crucial to remember that while AI can automate some tasks, it cannot take the place of human abilities and traits like empathy, adaptability, and decision-making that are crucial in many professions. Jobs in complex decision-making, problem-solving, and communication skills are required for these positions, which are challenging for computers to mimic and wont be able to be automated. For most the answer is NO, AI wont replace your job.

        2023 - 5 trends with financial institutions

         

        In 2023, if i had a crystal ball, I believe the following trends will become main themes within north american financial institutions:

        1. Increase mobile banking capabilities: Banks should continue to invest in technologies to improve the customer experience on mobile devices. This could include new payment systems, improved security measures and customised experiences for each customer.

        2. Develop AI-driven solutions: Banks can use artificial intelligence to automate mundane tasks and provide more personalised customer service. AI can also be used to detect fraud, improve customer experience, and even predict customer behaviour.

        3. Leverage blockchain technology: Blockchain technology can help banks reduce costs, increase efficiency, and improve security. Banks can use it to develop new services, such as digital asset management, and establish distributed networks to streamline processes.

        4. Introduce open banking: Open banking allows customers to securely share their financial data with third-party providers, such as financial advisors, lenders, and insurers. Banks should look to partner with these organisations to provide more personalised services to their customers.

        5. Utilise digital currencies: Digital currencies are becoming increasingly popular, and banks should look to leverage this technology to offer a more convenient way to send and receive payments. Banks should also look to develop their own digital currencies, and explore the potential of using them to facilitate international payments.

        This will be my last post of the year, Merry Christmas to all and wish everyone a 2023 filled with happiness, health and success.

  • 16 ways to add More Hours to the Day

16 ways to add More Hours to the Day

by Alex Antonatos
on 01 November 2020

A twenty five hour day isn’t coming any time soon with Covid19. Twenty four is all that we get. However, with a bit of skill you can squeeze out a couple more hours to add to your day from personal and work time. Here’s how to have more :

  1. Work in blocks.
  2. Learn how to say no.
  3. Cut down on TV/Netflix.
  4. Plan you week in advance.
  5. Limit your social media time.
  6. Don’t be busy just to be busy.
  7. Don’t do everything…delegate.
  8. Unsubscribe from useless e-mails. Do some Triage:

Take a 10-minute break after 1 hour of work.

Prioritize work and schedule online facetime with friends and family, due to covid lockdown. 

Only watch 1 hour of TV/Netflix at night to wind down once work is complete.

Make a list of what has to be done for the week and on what days. 

Don’t make excuses and find things to clean to procrastinate. 

 

09. Exercise - Plan workouts during your work breaks (10 min chunks) so you can get the most exercising done throughout the day.

10. Do most important tasks in AM.

11. Be good at planning and organizing. 

12. Disable notification for useless apps.

13. Find tasks to eliminate or automate.

14. One task at a time (no multitasking).

15. Always set reminders on your phone.

16.Write stuff down so you don’t forget.

Don’t waste time re-writing texts. 

AM is best for maximizing productivity.

Use accurate time frames for task – make sure to have extra time in case a task takes longer than expected. They are distracting. 

Use alarm app. 

Make use of agenda and post-its.

 

The final question isn’t just of doing things faster, but of doing the right things. Constantly measure and be aware of the actual value each of your personal and work activities brings. Those that don’t add much should be simplified or eliminated entirely to focus on those that work.
