An entrepreneur reveals the No.1 skill for the AI age. Coding Isn’t It. Millionaire Scott Galloway believes that communicating effectively in today’s technology-driven world is essential.
A prominent entrepreneur and marketing professor at New York University recently emphasized the importance of storytelling as a critical ability for young people starting their careers. Millionaire Scott Galloway, who sold his company for almost $130 million, thinks that in a world where technology is used more and more, good communication is essential. Although platforms could change, the capacity to communicate concepts through data and images never goes out of style. Despite technology breakthroughs, he also highlights the value of expertise, saying that building a reputation for yourself in your industry is a surefire way to succeed.
Mr Galloway told the media outlet how a brand’s storytelling can directly contribute to, or hurt, its success.
The importance of storytelling is particularly why young people shouldn’t rely solely on generative artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT – not now, not ever, said Galloway.
“We don’t know if in five years some neural network is going to replace ChatGPT. We don’t know if coding is going to be outdated,” he said.
“The general gets crowded out by the specific,” Mr. Galloway continued. “Identify a niche and attempt to carve it out, no matter how little. Aspiring to be among the world’s most learned individuals in a particular field… If you’re not enjoying something, you’ll never be an expert in it.
