1/n A few thoughts about the potential impact of some of the new AI tools on businesses with @get_carbon as an example but applicable to other startups, particularly those with limited capital or resources.
2/n On marketing, we use graphic designers for images but #dallle can produce some stunning images. I wanted to push something out highlighting annoyed customers queuing for an ATM. These three images in a digital art style were done in less than 3 minutes. 
3/n At the extreme, we may no longer need graphic designers; more likely this will help graphic designers in being more efficient right now and helping in generating ideas. But its a game changer and allows startups with nothing to start quickly - and these are free for now
4/n On customer research / branding. I asked #ChatGPT the question "what differentiates Carbon as a bank in Nigeria" and did the same for other competitors. Kuda, Fairmoney, Branch, Sparkle and for now it gave similar responses because of the limited training but ...
5/n ...singled out Carbon for its mobile-based credit card. The key point is that the extensive nature of the training data ultimately can help in research in learning about our brand positioning OR from a different perspective, provide insights as to what the market thinks
6/n Customer Service. The dirty truth about digital businesses is that there is significant manual/ analog compoenents with large teams. Imgaine training ChatGPT on your ideal answers for your most frequent customer problems. This is a chatbot on steroids
7/n programming in ChatGPT
You could provide the following prompt: "write python code to calculate factorials" or provide code and say "this code is not working like i expect — how do i fix it?"
In both cases you would likely get a viable solution even with with no experience

8/n Like in the marketing example this can help coders or replace coders in the future but this is just the beginning
Already @github claims that Copilot empowers coders to "complete tasks 55% faster by turning natural language prompts into coding suggestions"🤯🤯🤯🤯

9/n More exciting for me is in generating insights that are not obvious?
- Who are the most profitable customers?
- On what days to customers transact the most?
- Which state did we have the most losses in January and July?
Some of this natural language query already exists...

10/n... in different plaforms but the ability to query data independently, and at much lower cost will have a catalytic effect on productivity to a wide variety of compannies
11/11 I need to stress that the potential impact listed above are surface level and there will be 2nd/3rd order effects. The key is to keep an open mind and be creative.
Whilst these tools can replace humans, they are more likely to increase productivity.
Exciting times indeed
