How Social Workers Can Survive the AI Revolution - ChatGPT As A Threat Or An Opportunity?

As the world moves towards more advanced technologies, many industries are feeling the pressure of automation and AI. The field of social work is no exception. In this video, I talk about how social workers will survive the AI revolution and navigate the changes brought about by this technology. I also take a closer look at ChatGPT, a large language model that is trained to answer a wide range of questions. Some social workers may view ChatGPT as a threat, as it has the potential to automate certain aspects of our jobs. However, I also discuss some ways in which ChatGPT can be an opportunity for social workers to streamline their work and enhance their services. I talk about the challenges and opportunities presented by the AI revolution in social work, and offer practical tips and strategies for social workers to adapt and thrive in this new landscape. Don't miss this thought-provoking look at the future of social work and the role of AI. Whether you view ChatGPT as a threat or an opportunity, this video will provide valuable insights and perspectives to help you navigate the changing landscape of social work.

The SHOCKING Reality For Burned Out Social Workers 🤯 The MYTH We Perpetuate

Social Workers often claim that they don't have enough time to do their work. There can be a lot of truth to this because the profession is often characterized by unmanageable caseloads and high-stress situations which can lead to emotional overload and burnout. However, for those who use tools and strategies that objectively prioritize work tasks and responsibilities, successful work-life balance can be a reality.

How Social Workers Can Get The Ultimate Gift Of Time In Under 120 Seconds (Goodbye Burnout)

70% Price Slash on The Gift Of Time For Social Workers Training ➡️ https://bit.ly/swholidaysale Free All Access To Social Work Prioritization Tool ➡️ https://socialworkmentor.com/priority Social Worker Merch and Gifts ➡️ https://socialworkmentor.com/shop More Free Social Work Resources ➡️ https://socialworkmentor.com/links I recently conducted a national survey on a topic that I am very passionate about - Social Worker Burnout. The results, although not surprising, were somewhat shocking for me to see in black and white. A large percentage of the Social Workers who responded to the survey stated that they were overwhelmed and/or may leave the profession if something doesn't change! This is no surprise to me because: 1) I've been there and felt this exact same way, and 2) I speak to or hear from Social Workers on a daily basis who express their pain, frustration, and hopelessness to me. Respondents also indicated that it can take up to 5 years to develop a system to adequately help them organize and prioritize their workload. I know that when I was suffering, I couldn't wait that long. I've used my experience with burnout to develop a training for Social Workers to finally get that WORK-LIFE BALANCE that we all want! As we head into the end of 2021 and begin to look forward to 2022, I'm reducing the price for the Gift Of Time For Social Workers (GOTSW) training by almost 70%! I want you to get started on this easily accessible training so that you can start the New Year with a system that will finally help you effectively manage your time as a Social Worker! 3 Things That Are Specifically Included In The Training Are: Organization Strategies Prioritization Tools and Methods A Specific, Detailed Calendaring System that aligns with the free included Prioritization Tool I am hopeful that you take advantage of this opportunity before we start 2022 and the 70% deal goes away. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
