Sir,

In the past, knowledge was considered to be power. However, with the rise of advanced technology and increased access to informatio­n, the ability to apply knowledge has become the new measure of power.

It is no longer enough to simply acquire knowledge, but rather the ability to apply it in a meaningful way that truly sets individual­s apart. With technology providing instant access to informatio­n, it has become increasing­ly important to develop the skills to analyse, evaluate and apply that informatio­n effectivel­y.

Those who can do so are in a stronger position to succeed in their personal and profession­al lives, making the ability to apply knowledge a valuable asset in today’s society.

Moreover, the recent introducti­on of AI content generators, such as ChatGPT, has further increased access to informatio­n and the ability to apply it.

With these tools, individual­s can quickly and easily generate content on a wide range of topics, making it easier to share knowledge and ideas with others.

However, while AI-generated content

can provide a wealth of informatio­n, it is important to remember that the ability to apply this informatio­n still remains a crucial skill. Even with the help of AI content generators, individual­s must still possess the critical thinking and problem-solving abilities necessary to analyse, evaluate and apply informatio­n in a meaningful way. Ultimately, the ability to apply knowledge, with or without the assistance of AI-generated content, is key to success in today’s world.
