Why Learning to Use AI Is Now as Essential as Learning the Internet Once Was

When Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, spoke recently on a podcast, he said something that perfectly captures the moment we are living through:

“My generation was the first to ask, ‘How can I use computers to become a better scientist, or accountant, or lawyer?’”

The generations before didn’t have to ask that. Computers simply didn’t exist.

Then, it happened again with the internet.
Then with social media.

Now? It’s happening again — with AI.

And this time, the pace of change is even faster.

Every Generation Faces New Tools — The Question Is: Will You Adapt?

Think back:

👉 There was a time when many professionals didn’t know how to use a computer.
👉 Then came the internet — entire industries shifted online. Those who adapted thrived.
👉 Then came social media — it redefined marketing, sales, and customer relationships.

Now, the new wave is AI.
And this shift is not optional.

Why AI Is Different — And Why It’s Moving Faster

What makes this AI wave different?

 It’s not just one industry being affected — it’s ALL industries
 It’s not just for “techies” — it’s for everyone: lawyers, doctors, marketers, accountants, business owners
 It’s not just about replacing jobs — it’s about augmenting them, enhancing them, and in some cases, reinventing them

The professionals who learn to work with AI will massively outperform those who don’t.

The Key Question: How Will You Use AI to Do Your Job Better?

Just like Jensen Huang’s generation asked:

👉 “How do I use computers to become a better scientist / accountant / lawyer?”

Today the question is:

👉 “How do I use AI to become a better version of what I do?”

Because here’s the truth:

If you don’t ask that question — your competitors will.

And they’ll get ahead.

AI Is the New Baseline — But Human Distinctiveness Still Wins

Of course, AI won’t replace human connection, insight, or trust.

But AI will become the new baseline:

In other words:
Those who integrate AI will move faster, create more, and operate smarter.

Why You Need to Start Now

We’re at the start of an S-curve of adoption.

Those who build AI fluency now will:

 Stay relevant
 Outperform their peers
 Attract more opportunities
 Futureproof their businesses and careers

Those who wait? Risk becoming obsolete.
