As someone who started in lighting design before computers existed, communicating via telex and fax, carrying blueprints and magazine-cut mood boards to meetings, I find myself amazed to be facing the AI revolution in my career's sunset. Having witnessed the evolution from incandescent lamps to smart lighting, I believe we must embrace this AI tsunami thoughtfully. While it can streamline our mundane tasks, we need to understand its applications and maintain our role as creators. The challenge isn't just about using AI, but preserving our intellectual integrity while adapting to this transformative technology.
