Thank you Ricardo for this.. my question to you now is what courses should I go for to stay relevant with AI taking over?

[@rvvargas]

I believe you should study potential applications of AI and learn more what AI can do and the trends. We are planning to do a master class exactly to help people improve their understanding of AI. It will happen this June. Stay tuned.

I've asked IA to write a short summary and top learning points for this video, inserting the transcript. BOOM! got everything I wanted in 2minutes. Thanks for the idea, Ricardo!

[@rvvargas]

Things are evolving at lightning speed :)

[@dow2002]

I started using A.I in my project, as an experiment and I agree with using A.I to drive project success.

[@BrianJ-r7s]

Hi, how did you start / incorporate AI into your projects?

[@BrianJ-r7s]

Thanks!

[@rashaabdin134]

I come form AI and project management backgrounds, and I really value all what you are referring to in each point. The trick now is to get all of these points in a comprehensive platform, and adding other predictive, descriptive and big data analytics. It would be my pleasure if we can arrange a meeting. to be honest you are a Master Project Management Mind

[@jorgetneto]

Grande Mestre Ricardo Vargas! Manaus sente falta de seus ensinamentos! O PIM o aguarda!

[@rvvargas]

Gratidão

[@marynamarchuk5119]

Thank you very much for sharing the opportunities for growth for a PM and contribution to the value of any project that AI can bring. I really liked your concept of 'unlimited' templates and VA who is available 24/7 without any bias. When a PM is free of reporting work, he or she can really bring the project to a new level - when success is not only for 35% of the projects and where team is motivated for a disruptive change.

[@Shawnsegzy]

I love your energy. I was laughing all through because its so enlightening.

[@actinternationalconsulting5973]

Thanks a lot for sharing this. My postgraduate course with Harvard Extension School this Fall is about "The Geopolitics of Technology" and your videos on AI are so much in alignment to what we are learning from this course.

[@rvvargas]

Thanks super for your feedback 😊

[@marcoa.mongalojr.4038]

Very good high level analysis Ricardo

[@melinavdw342]

Thank you for keeping us updated! 🙏

[@rvvargas]

Thanks!! 😊

[@anaarenales1817]

@rvvargas I would like to express my deep gratitude for helping us become project managers who go beyond data analysis, task automation, and other activities that AI performs. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and inspiration with us and motivating us to be ever better as "connectors of ideas to reality."

[@rvvargas]

Thanks a lot for your feedback. It means a lot!! 🙏

[@cesartonoli19]

Thank you very much for the content!!

[@manojchoudhary2830]

You are a management guru!

[@jorgetneto]

Obrigado Ricardo! Sempre inspirador!

[@ajaybhonge6794]

Nice Thank you

[@martinbusiness]

Hi Ricardo can you please share the source of statement you mentioned at the beginning of the video?

[@ronpdf2084]

nao tem em portugues? eu queria ver esses videos sobre IA em portugues

[@farhad1958]

Congratulations 👏 for your excellent video-cast, Ricardo. However, there are some nuances that has to be considered. ChatGPT produces reports (or any other text) based on a request it receives through the prompt. Therefore, SISO ou GIGO (garbage in garbage out) principle applies. Presently, it may be a valuable assistant at best or a disaster at worst depending on the dexterity of the human actor who interacts with it. Do you agree? 🤔

[@rvvargas]

You are perfect right Farhad. The quality of the prompt is directly related to the quality of the results.

[@adrianomorettisilva5274]

Awesome

[@sedenta]

actually AI will be a new stakeholder in PM ecosystem, providing team support (even advise) on risk management, baseline deviation, quality control, etc

[@rvvargas]

Good point. We need just to see what will be the frontier of AI on projects. If it will advice or maybe even lead initiatives in the future. We will have to be prepared for the unknown

[@PrasannaSTV]

No doubt on AI could do. The question is how organization able to feed the data to inhouse GPT. Still way to go

[@rvvargas]

Today there are several developments in this area. From tools that reads pdfs and other documents to internal OpenAI servers like Microsoft Azure Machine OpenAI Servers.

[@PrasannaSTV]

@@rvvargas Sorry to ask further more clarifications, Especially when we as PM managing Vendor as a strategic partners they owns many data than company. In this case we have limited visibility about the releases and velocities of the deliverables. In this case, all we have is PM tools like jira so AI tools decisions or outcome will not be more realistic decisions. But I completely agree with you we are going to work towards or in parallel with AI . Thanks again for the more and more insights

[@peterlim8841]

all control using AI program, PM,PMO, Scheduler, Cost Controller.... all project member will be not required, even operator using AI roberts. So created good projects, completed . who using the result of project ? who is the customer? human or AI or roberts

[@rvvargas]

Hi Peter. it is disruptive. Several current roles may not exist in the future. But it will not AI working for AI. People need to be aware of what benefits we humans want to achieve with our projects.

[@adanbanuelos1266]

👍

[@bafa000]

end users with these tools.... My concern is if they will need us PMs at all? I see what you are saying, but maybe we are being a little too optimistic. Is this a good time for people to get into this field - Administrative work goes away... If you are not at an advanced place in your career, starting off, right now, may not be the best idea (?). I come from a different industry and have b een working in PM for 3 years - about to take my PMP, and AI just exploded.

[@rvvargas]

Hello!! AI tools can enhance PM roles by handling administrative tasks, allowing PMs to focus on strategic aspects, making it still a valuable career. 😊
