7 Ways Using AI for Work Can Get Complicated

AI is going to change how we work. It can make some tasks easier. But it can also cause problems. Let’s look at some ways AI can make work tricky.

What is AI and how does it affect work?

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. The computer systems are actually able to do the things that normal and regular human intelligence can do. It can support so many jobs. It can write, analyze data, and can even create art. 

But it is not perfect-it also can go wrong. 

Where can AI go wrong?

Incorrect Information

AI sometimes provides wrong information. It may mix up facts or use data that is too old. This can cause huge problems in the workplace.

Weird outputs

AI can also make strange mistakes. It may write utter nonsense or create odd images. This can be a waste of time and cause confusion.

Can AI be biased?

Yes, AI can be biased. It learns from data given to it by humans. If that data has bias in it, then the AI will too. This can lead to unfair decisions in the workplace.

How does AI affect jobs?

Job loss

Some people fear that AI will steal their jobs. It can perform certain tasks more quickly and for less money than humans. This could result in fewer jobs in some industries.

New skills needed

AI also needs workers to acquire new skills. Workers need to learn to work with AI, which can be challenging for some workers.

Is AI always reliable?

No, AI is not always reliable. It can malfunction or break down. This causes a big problem if the workers are dependent on it and it fails.

How does AI affect teamwork?

AI can alter how teams work. Certain tasks become solo work with AI. This may decrease teamwork and creativity.

What about privacy and AI?

AI requires a lot of data to function properly, which can raise several privacy concerns. Workers may be concerned that AI will view their personal information or work habits.

Yes, AI can create legal issues. There are questions about who owns work created by AI. There are also concerns about AI making biased decisions.

How can we use AI safely at work?

To use AI safely at work:

  • Check AI outputs carefully
  • Keep humans in charge of big decisions
  • Train workers to use AI well
  • Have clear rules for AI use
  • Stay up-to-date on AI laws

Katana has been able to continuously improve our network

What has been your experience with Katana managing your IT?

Over a 5 year period our business grew from one site located in Campbelltown, to eight sites that stretched from Kiama and Wollongong, through to Rockdale and into Sydney. Wade had full management of it and was a trusted advisor on what was required for both upkeep and improvements.

What’s a project or area Katana has been able to improve your IT processes or infrastructure?

As can be appreciated we run an extremely complex environment both geographically and also the architecture of the network. Katana has been able to continuously improve our network, and at all times ensure that we are operational. We have just on 100 users whom are working off any number of devices and stations running diverse programmes from POS to Predictive Diallers.

Whats your general thoughts on Katana IT staff?

I can strongly recommend Wade’s performance based on his professionalism, knowledge and willingness to solve. However the most important element is his commitment to customer service.

They are responsive, agile and capable

What has been your experience with Katana managing your IT?

Katana IT have been involved with managing the IT requirements for Corless Logistics for a number of years now and we have found them to be responsive and knowledgeable in their field. They have become part of our business through their open communication and friendliness with our staff. They are not a supplier that holds you at arms length. To us it is a personal connection they display that makes the difference.

What’s a project or area Katana has been able to improve your IT processes or infrastructure?

During the time that Katana IT have managed the IT requirements for Corless Logistics, we have had many project related activities that Katana IT have guided us through. New hardware roll outs to software upgrades along with advice and assistance on progressing a major IT platform change for our core business function.

Whats your general thoughts on Katana IT staff?

Katana IT have assisted in times of “dire need” from an IT perspective. These instances could be as simple as not being able to log on remotely when out of the office, internet drop outs, PC/software issues, to hardware problems….things that will stop a business functioning if assistance is not as quick as the “000 Emergency Services” type of response time. In all seriousness, if Katana IT didn’t respond as they do now and help solve the day to day issues – that we don’t know how/can’t find the solution to – simply and quickly, we would be in a pickle – without question. They are responsive, agile and capable.
