It's real. It's here. It's already a growing part of our lives. Many of us already interact with AI through services like chatbots, when we buy things online from our favorite brands, or virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa.” —Megan Harris “People want to know how [AI is] going to affect their lives and if there's going to be checks and balances. That tells me that everyone is on board in some respect; they just need to be educated. And that's doable.” —Megan Harris “Any company or any brand that has consumers and has a footprint in society should have a code of ethics and should regulate how they use technology and AI.” —Megan Harris “Women are a little bit more fearful than men around AI... And more women are reporting that they feel concerned and a little bit skeptical while more men than women report that they're feeling excited and optimistic.” —Megan Harris “No longer is it just cut and dry with your personal and professional life. It's not about work-life balance anymore. It's more about kind of taking a holistic view on your life and things fitting in so you can live your best life.” —Megan Harris Resources SYZYGY Connect with Megan on LinkedIn and Facebook
