Description:

In this episode, I am speaking with Polly Allen. Polly is an expert in artificial intelligence, and I will be speaking with her about ChatGPT. This is a topic you need to learn more about. I think you will have a better understanding of what ChatGPT can do and how you can take advantage of it in your career.

Polly Allen has over 20 years of experience developing software, building and leading software teams, and most recently leading data science and engineering teams as a Principal Product Manager for Alexa AI at Amazon. At Alexa, she led generative artificial intelligence projects (using technology similar to ChatGPT). As a leader in the application of Machine Learning, she is passionate about DEI in the space and empowering more people to understand, leverage and participate in the field. She founded AI Career Boost, an AI education company, in November 2022, aiming to increase diversity in the AI industry. Polly is an experienced angel investor, a board member at the Center for Workforce Inclusion Labs, and a futurist keynote speaker. She holds an M.Sc. in Software Engineering from MIT and the University of Victoria, and an MBA from the University of British Columbia.

I have been working with ChatGPT for about a month and the more I learn how to use the tool, the more I am blown away by what is possible. My buddy Ryan Rhoten said on a recent LinkedIn live that “you may not lose your job to ChatGPT but you could lose it to someone who knows how to use it”.

This episode is well worth your time.
