ChatGPT Integration with InsideSpin
As a validation of AI-augmented article writing, InsideSpin has integrated ChatGPT to help flesh out unfinished articles at the moment they are requested. If you have been a past InsideSpin user, you may have noticed not all articles are fully fleshed out. While every article has a summary, only about half are fleshed out. Decisions about what to finish has been based on user interest over the years. With this POC, ChatGPT will use the InsideSpin article summary as the basis of the prompt, and return an expanded article adding insight from its underlying model. The instances are being stored for later analysis to choose one that best represents the intent of InsideSpin which the author can work with to finalize. This is a trial of an AI-augmented approach.

What is the Urgency?
AI is evolving rapidly, much like other transformational technologies in their early years. For perspective, consider the introduction of spreadsheets in the late 70s. For finance analysts accustomed to calculators and ledgers, spreadsheets were revolutionary: they automated calculations, enabled live "what-if" scenarios, and transformed industries overnight. AI holds similar potential. Approaching it with this mindset can help you and your organization move forward confidently. Finance professionals who resisted spreadsheets were quickly left behind—AI is no different.
The Urgency of Embracing AI
If there’s an urgency, it’s to uncover how AI can make you a "better you." While this may sound metaphorical, the sooner you identify AI’s benefits, the sooner you can focus on higher-value activities in your role. When an entire team embraces AI, the benefits compound, elevating everyone. While AI may lead to the end of some roles, it often creates new opportunities and new roles. The key is to remember that there’s “always more to do.”
Revolutionizing Workflows
AI frees up time from routine tasks, allowing you to focus on those that often go overlooked. Imagine reversing the 80-20 rule—spending most of your time on the 80% of tasks that rarely receive the attention they deserve. Would this lead to higher-value contributions? To achieve this transformation effectively, the whole team must adopt AI together, ensuring alignment and shared progress.
