!['AS BIG AS THE INTERNET, IF NOT BIGGER'](https://cdn.magzter.com/1445969417/1707304184/articles/0n3ggv9EQ1707310757911/AS-BIG-AS-THE-INTERNET-IF-NOT-BIGGER.jpg)
When the internet first became mainstream, the word on everyone’s lips was that it was the future of everything. To be successful, the feeling was, brands and businesses absolutely had to have a website to promote or something internet-related to talk about or they’d slip into irrelevancy. The hype was everywhere, and it was deafening.
“What’s funny is, they were all right, but they weren’t right on the timeline,” Gavin Purcell, co-host of the AI for Humans podcast, told BOSS.
History seems to be repeating itself with the explosion of AI. Seemingly everyone is rushing to jump on the AI bandwagon, whether they really know what to do with it yet or not. Purcell, an Emmy winner who has served as showrunner for “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” and has an extensive new media background, and co-host Kevin Pereira, a multimedia creative and former mainstay on G4 TV, are tech enthusiasts and lovers.
That doesn’t mean, though, that they’re above pointing out some of the silliness that comes along with any new wave of tech. There is a lot of hype around AI, to be sure. Pereira joked that at this year’s CES in Las Vegas, “If you had a product in 2023, you just brought it back out again in 2024, but you made sure AI was on the box.”
We might not really need AI-enabled lawn mowers or washing machines, for example, but what’s with AI coming really is “as big as the internet, if not bigger,” Purcell said.
USEFUL RIGHT AWAY
What differentiates AI is that even in its infancy, there are already many helpful use cases.
“This stuff is useful today. You’re not in search of a use case for it.” Pereira said. “If you are a coder, you will write code faster. Maybe not cleaner, but you will certainly write code faster if you’re coding with an AI assistant.”

Heal to Lead - Kelly L. Campbell on why leaders need to let go of their trauma, and how to go about it
Kelly L. Campbell on why leaders need to let go of their trauma, and how to go about it. Whether it’s “Big T” trauma (categories like abuse, growing up in a war-torn area, having parents divorce, or losing a caregiver) or “small t” trauma (feelings of humiliation, abandonment, rejection, or betrayal), they can show up in unexpected ways in our adult lives. One is not more impactful than the other, Campbell told BOSS, and integrating both is important to leading a healthy, sustainable life and career.

Virtual Reality, Tangible Results. Pain Management with VR- By distracting the mind from what was happening to their bodies, the burn patients reported a significant reduction in pain.
By distracting the mind from what was happening to their bodies, the burn patients reported a significant reduction in pain. In granting the RelieVRx a Breakthrough Device distinction, the FDA acknowledged the importance of a chronic pain treatment that does not involve opioid medications. Reducing pain with VR therapy can lead to a reduced need for pain medication, which in turn lowers the risk of opioid addiction.
