There’s a widening gap happening with A.I. - and I’m seeing it get bigger and bigger every day.

Most people are still using A.I. like it’s 2022.
Most people are using one platform. Maybe two. 
But none of them are connected. None of them are feeding each other or automating anything.
And I get it, because none of the platforms are ever going to tell you to do this. They all want to keep you on THEIR platform.

It's only when you zoom out and start thinking in workflows, where one platform does the research, another drafts the document, another critiques it, another turns it into a presentation or a video... that you start to see what's actually possible.I'm going to be creating a lot of content to show off and demonstrate what I've been doing recently using ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity & other GenerativeAI Tools & Apps. But this is ONLY THE BEGINNING! 

Tell me what you think below... and let's discuss this.

As a test & to use as an example, I've uploaded a screenshot from Facebook to demonstrate how images can be uploaded into ACTIVITY STREAM.

THIS IS BASED ON THE QUESTIONS FROM ARTICLE:  incubator.org/applications/blogs/who-has-this-problem

I’ll go first again to give a simple example. 

1. People who struggle:
People who are new to using digital platforms and don’t know where to start.

2. Their biggest difficulty:
Understanding how different tools connect or what to do first. 

3. A common mistake:
Trying to learn everything at once or not asking questions

4. What would help them:
A clear starting point with simple steps

Even writing this out helps clarify things.

I'm curious to see what others come up with, and a reminder that simple answers are useful here.

THIS IS BASED ON THE QUESTIONS FROM ARTICLE:  incubator.org/applications/blogs/what-do-you-already-know

I’ll go first here to give an example — no pressure to be perfect with this.

1. Work / experience: I’ve spent a lot of time working on digital platforms, websites, and community systems — figuring out how to connect tools, content, and people in a way that actually works.
2. What people ask me for help with: Usually troubleshooting, setting things up, or explaining how different systems fit together. A lot of “why isn’t this working?” and “how do I start?”
3. Tools I use: Joomla, WordPress, Google Workspace, AI tools (including ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini), forms, CRMs, and different workflow setups — a mix of technical and practical tools.
4. Problems I’ve solved: Taking something that feels messy or unclear and turning it into something structured and usable — especially at the beginning stages.

What stands out to me is that a lot of this feels normal or obvious from my side — but that’s probably where the value is.

Curious to see what others come up with — even simple answers are useful here.

We're living in the strangest time in human history.
We have tools that can do 95% of human tasks better than humans.

But that last 5%?

That's where...We're living in the strangest time in human history.
We have tools that can do 95% of human tasks better than humans.

But that last 5%?

That's where ALL the leverage is.

And that 5% is:

Taste
Judgment
Decision-making
In other words, the ability to say "THIS, not THAT."

Which leads us to an exciting prospect:

The more powerful AI gets, the MORE important your decision-making becomes. Show more

Austrian researchers discovered that all 3.5B WhatsApp users can be enumerated at a rate of 100M users per hour. The researchers used the WhatsApp Web interface to bulk add users and phone numbers and were able to extract phone numbers for all users, profile photos for 57% of users, and profile text for 27%. Meta implemented rate limiting to address this issue, but also stated that the data exposed was basic publicly available information.

How do you feel about your personal information being exposed because you continue to use WhatsApp?

I've just found out that this feature is not yet available in ChatGPT Plus. The rollout of the Group chat feature, is still just barely getting started. So, if ANYONE is interested... with the assistance of ChatGPT Agents, I was able to create a workaround for this that I'm going to be using for a few of the teams that I work with. If interested in the details, LMK so that I can share some of the steps that I took to get results.

I’m really curious about this experiment.What jumps out at me from the article isn’t just “group chat with an AI,” it’s shared context plus shared memory of the convo for a small group of humans who are trying to get something done together.A few things I’m noticing:

• Group chats sit in their own section of the sidebar, and they’re separate from your 1:1 chats. Your personal memory doesn’t leak into the group, and the group doesn’t write to your memory either, at least in this first version.
• You can spin up a group from any existing conversation and invite 1–20 people with a link, so it’s very low-friction to “pull others into” a thread you’ve already started.
• It runs on GPT-5.1 Auto, and ChatGPT decides when to chime in vs when to stay quiet, which feels closer to having an actual “participant” in the room versus just a bot you ping.

Why it matters: Researchers have found that using AI can reverse the  Dunning-Kruger effect , leading to a universal tendency to overestimate abilities regardless of actual skill. A study involving logical reasoning tasks with and without AI assistance revealed that AI users engage in "cognitive offloading," reducing critical thinking and metacognitive monitoring.

Check yourself: Researchers warn that as AI becomes more integrated into daily tasks, people's diminished self-awareness may contribute to more frequent errors and poor decision-making. By accepting AI responses without rigorous evaluation or further questioning, users reduce their own critical engagement with tasks. The study suggests that AI developers design systems that prompt users to reflect on their answers.

Speaking of AI...
