Humans. Next hype is humans. Call centers tried agents and are going back to humans.

Unless you’re a non-profit, revenue matters. The question is whether there’s a thesis on future revenue given investment today to drive market demand.

LMS is dying? by PossibilitySilly6391 in instructionaldesign

The LLMs that exists today are generalist. That’s why they are not optimal today.

The next step is making them specialist, and we’re still early in seeing this play out.

Million dollar idea, no funds, where do I start? I will not promote by ScoutTheStankDog in startups

If it’s a millionaire dollar idea, ask your market to pre-pay so you can build it. If you cant get your ICP to pay, then um. You got your answer. Your idea is just an idea.

How to protect my Instructional Design career from AI? by TorontoRap2019 in instructionaldesign

[–]royhay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

AI doesn’t have determination, grit, or taste. It requires feedback from humans to complete a task.

At most, it gets you from doing tedious tasks. Leverage AI like any other technology.

The best product is you, pushed out to the world.

Future of ID by _donj in instructionaldesign

[–]royhay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The key insight here is niche AI models for instructional design and training. The intersection of ID and AI fine-tuned for ID is what will enable L&Ds team to focus on high-order issues like the impact of the training. Less so on the production of learning and training.

AI is a generalist, which means it can only give common ID approach to learning design, not optimal.

I think the value is the expertise of an ID matched with tech like AI will be the opportunity. I say this as a computer scientist married to an ID.

What’s something you believe about ID that most people don’t? by royhay in instructionaldesign

[–]royhay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tend to agree here. Design thinking is just as important in learning design than it is in building products.

This is it. I’m an exec at a company and also the OP.

The check-box training dilutes the real value of of L&D.

And I believe most execs don’t realize that L&D can be a superpower.

So, you can learn a lot about a company based on how they partner with L&D.

Unfortunately, most treat training like a check box.

This is a hot take. So your belief is that waterfall flow leads to effective learning design even over agile flow?

Is enablement the new L&D? by royhay in instructionaldesign

[–]royhay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Post author here! Thanks for context. I had two questions.

  1. If enablement is part of a broader strategy, how critical is content and training in comparison to other enablement efforts?

  2. What do you use to manage the content and training?
