Beyond FOMO — Keeping Up-to-Date in AI
summary
Rapid AI change costs focus and well being, so prioritize concrete habits: run a team knowledge culture with no stupid questions and a two-step overview-then-deep dive policy, block one day a month for uninterrupted deep work, and use small side projects (a RAG system over personal docs, a weekly football-results summarizer) to test tools like AWS Glue + data warehouse pipelines, cloud LLMs and agents. Citeable stats: ~70% report imposter syndrome. Practical rule: use AI to learn AI and prefer incremental value over chasing every new model.
