NJ Chamber members on how they use artificial intelligence, and which AI apps work best: "If I'm stuck on a problem or need to rethink something, I open ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini. After providing some essential context and instructions, I have a back-and-forth with the program. Sometimes, I use ChatGPT Voice or Pi. This allows me to speak directly to the chatbot on my phone, without typing anything out. When brainstorming with AI, I focus less on the AI’s output and more on the ideas that emerge as I type or speak. The goal is to use AI as a catalyst for my own creativity." - Jason Gulya, PhD, professor, English and applied media, Berkeley College. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eB9gHjqR

Governor Phil Murphy yesterday signed legislation, A4619/S3479, enhancing the Historic Property Reinvestment Act and the Brownfields Redevelopment Incentive Program Act to support historic preservation and further incentivize the redevelopment of brownfields across New Jersey into new solar energy facilities. “The New Jersey Chamber of Commerce applauds that A-4619/S-3479 will turn underutilized and dormant sites into vibrant, productive properties that will have great economic development potential. Modifying the credits and application process of the Brownfields Redevelopment Incentive Program and the Historic Property Reinvestment Program will boost investment in these areas, enhance the local economy, provide potential tax rateables to communities and improve the environment. This legislation will also improve compliance and consistency with federal programs to encourage further investment in sites throughout the state,” said Michael Egenton, the Chamber's chief lobbyist.

We asked NJ Chamber members to share with us how they use artificial intelligence apps, such as ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot, at work. They said AI helps them with creativity, collaboration, and communications. It helps them draft emails and documents. And it helps them summarize long reports, meetings and articles. One user from a university said they use an AI program to help identify AI-generated content.
