Are you using AI?

Alanta Lee
Alanta Lee 6 days ago

Hi everyone,

This is the first time i've ventured out of my 'Research Opportunities' area so, hello Wave

I'm curious to hear how people in the element14 community are using AI tools in everyday life, whether that’s at work, at home, while learning, or just experimenting.

A few prompts to get things going:

  • What do you mainly use AI for?
  • Has AI changed how you work or solve problems?
  • What do you find most useful about AI?
  • What still feels frustrating, risky, or unclear?
  • Are there any AI tools or use cases you think are especially useful?

Feel free to answer one question or all of them!

Thanks!

    That’s a really fair point, I should have included an “I try to avoid AI” option in the poll. It’s useful to hear from people who are actively trying not to use it too. Apologies for that!

    Your example is exactly the kind of thing I’m interested in. It sounds like AI/search can be quite frustrating when it gives a confident answer based on incomplete product information, especially for older equipment or less common setups.

    When something like that happens, what do you usually do next?
