Opinions expressed by entrepreneurs’ colleagues are their very own.
AI’s weekly meetings are an vital part of our company’s activities. During these meetings, team members share their latest discoveries in the use of artificial intelligence for the development of the game. I see these events as the culmination of our deliberate strategy to grow to be an “entertainment company powered by AI”. However, only a 12 months ago it was unimaginable.
Everything modified for us in October 2024. Then I saw how AI can be personalized to unravel specific problems – people who are unique to each person. It helped me understand that we didn’t look at one other technological trend that might be forgotten in a 12 months or two. We witnessed a fundamental change in the activities of corporations.
Strategic skepticism
Like many business leaders, my journey with AI began with healthy skepticism. Initially, our company AI was assumed that this was one other fashionable password and we didn’t see apply it significantly to our company.
This modified dramatically when I personally began experimenting with AI tools at the end of 2024. I spotted that folks do not act with full performance, not because they are lazy, but because they often make the same mistakes that others have previously made.
Meanwhile, AI gives us access to collective knowledge about successful and unsuccessful methods, allowing us to make recent mistakes as a substitute of repeating the old ones. This implementation led to strategic turnover for our game company. This allowed me to start out perceiving AI as a basic component that may transform any aspect of our activity.
Personalization revolution
Providing experiences adapted to the needs and preferences of each person is at the heart of my AI strategy. AI allows us to realize much smaller personalization than simply focusing on cohorts. We can provide content that seems really personal, which drives retention.
This approach also goes beyond customer applications for internal processes. I implemented AI tools that help our employees work more efficiently, adapting to their individual work styles and preferences.
For example, I noticed that sometimes I prefer to interact with information through the voice, and at other times through the text. AI is a tool that may adapt this interaction to what seems to me proper and transform information into any form I want.
Overcoming resistance to changes
The implementation of artificial intelligence in the organization does not come without challenges, and human inertia is the essential obstacle. People can be extremely immune to changes and are reluctant to even try recent things. They stem in routine tasks and often surrender after the first unsuccessful attempt.
To fight resistance, my company has implemented several strategies:
- Conducting an example. I at all times start with myself. I show what is possible with AI tools and show the results.
- Creating early users’ communities. We have created telegram and loose groups in which AI enthusiasts divide the use and stories of success.
- Mentor programs. The combination of AI-expanding employees with employees who are still learning, helps to supply personalized suggestions.
- Regular challenges and workshops. Organized activities keep employees to commit and motivate to proceed to find the AI application.
- Celebrating small victories. Recognition and sharing success, regardless of how small, helps to maintain the momentum.
CEO as a master AI
Leadership plays a key role in the successful AI integration. As a CEO, my task is to encourage and lead people to simply accept an effective approach to this technology.
It goes beyond the usual promotion of the use of artificial intelligence. It also means helping employees understand apply artificial intelligence for their specific roles. Many people think that artificial intelligence can do nothing for their work.
To solve this, I personally work with employees to discover AI applications in my each day tasks. Sometimes I have to spend five days in a row, asking someone if he tried to make use of artificial intelligence for a specific task before they finally do the results.
Balancing performance and creativity
Although artificial intelligence can significantly increase performance, I still think that human creativity stays essential. For something to create, someone must need to create it. AI is a tool in the creator’s hands. It can make this process faster or slower, but does not initiate creature.
This perspective shapes our approach to AI integration as a partnership between human creativity and machine performance. This is an amazing symbiosis: people manage artificial intelligence, and Ai does what he does best.
The future is powered by AI
For corporations that need to make AI the basic part of their strategy, my advice is to start out a small, quick iteration and focus on personalization.
Our team is only at the starting of this journey. But if we move at sufficient speed, we are going to stay forward. All we have to do is move faster than others. We don’t have to maneuver exactly in the right way. We have to maneuver quickly. I predict that over the following 12 months we are going to have 30% of our content creation and coding processes to significantly transform AI.
Making AI the basic part of a business strategy is more of a fundamental considering of how your organization works than simply adapting the recent technology. My experience shows that it requires a combination of visionary leadership, systematic implementation and readiness for iteration and learning.
The world has modified. Those who accept AI not only gain a competitive advantage, but also participate in the transformation of the company’s future.
