7 Ways Using AI for Work Can Get Complicated

Zachary Kitchen

AI is going to change how we work. It can make some tasks easier. But it can also cause problems. Let’s look at some ways AI can make work tricky.

What is AI and how does it affect work?

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. The computer systems are actually able to do the things that normal and regular human intelligence can do. It can support so many jobs. It can write, analyze data, and can even create art. 

But it is not perfect-it also can go wrong. 

Where can AI go wrong?

Incorrect Information

AI sometimes provides wrong information. It may mix up facts or use data that is too old. This can cause huge problems in the workplace.

Weird outputs

AI can also make strange mistakes. It may write utter nonsense or create odd images. This can be a waste of time and cause confusion.

Can AI be biased?

Yes, AI can be biased. It learns from data given to it by humans. If that data has bias in it, then the AI will too. This can lead to unfair decisions in the workplace.

How does AI affect jobs?

Job loss

Some people fear that AI will steal their jobs. It can perform certain tasks more quickly and for less money than humans. This could result in fewer jobs in some industries.

New skills needed

AI also needs workers to acquire new skills. Workers need to learn to work with AI, which can be challenging for some workers.

Is AI always reliable?

No, AI is not always reliable. It can malfunction or break down. This causes a big problem if the workers are dependent on it and it fails.

How does AI affect teamwork?

AI can alter how teams work. Certain tasks become solo work with AI. This may decrease teamwork and creativity.

What about privacy and AI?

AI requires a lot of data to function properly, which can raise several privacy concerns. Workers may be concerned that AI will view their personal information or work habits.

Yes, AI can create legal issues. There are questions about who owns work created by AI. There are also concerns about AI making biased decisions.

How can we use AI safely at work?

To use AI safely at work:

  • Check AI outputs carefully
  • Keep humans in charge of big decisions
  • Train workers to use AI well
  • Have clear rules for AI use
  • Stay up-to-date on AI laws

When Our Server Crashed, I Expected Downtime For Days, They Had Us Back in Hours

As a small law firm, we needed reliable IT support that wouldn’t break the budget—but still delivered at the highest level. Digital Crisis gave us exactly that.
 
They helped us modernize our systems, move to the cloud, and streamline how we work. Now our team can securely access everything we need from anywhere—and we’ve never been more efficient.
 
When our server went down unexpectedly, they had us fully operational again within three hours. No panic. No delays. Just fast, professional support when we needed it most.
 
With Digital Crisis, we feel like we have a world-class IT department—without the overhead.

We Knew Something Had to Change

As a managing partner of our firm, I needed a technology partner who understood urgency—and our old IT company just didn’t get it. Every time we had an issue, we were forced to submit a ticket just to speak with someone. No one ever answered the phone. Everything felt like a battle, and we were stuck in a long-term contract with no flexibility.

 

When I called Digital Crisis, they picked up immediately. No ticket. No runaround. Just answers. Within minutes, they had already started helping us.

 

Looking back, I wish we had made the switch sooner. I didn’t need to be a tech expert—I just needed to make one good decision for my team. Now our systems are secure, we actually get support when we need it, and I don’t have to worry about IT holding us back.

 

If you’re tired of being ignored by your IT guy, do what I did. Take back control. Call Digital Crisis.

I Couldn’t Afford IT Headaches When Starting My Firm

As the Managing Partner of a newly established law firm, I can confidently say that the seamlessness of our start-up is due in large part to the exceptional IT support provided by Zach and the team at Digital Crisis. From day one, they have been more than just a service provider—they've been true partners in our success.

Zach and his team have an incredible ability to anticipate our needs before we even voice them. Their proactive approach, deep expertise, and commitment to keeping our systems secure and efficient have given us the confidence to focus fully on building our practice.

Having reliable IT support is critical in the legal field, where security and uptime are non-negotiable. Thanks to Digital Crisis, we’ve had both—plus the peace of mind that comes from knowing we’re in capable hands. We couldn’t ask for a better tech partner.

They’re a Valuable Member of Our Team

Zach is great at explaining to us about our IT in plain-speak, rather than “geek-speak.” I genuinely feel like hiring Digital Crisis was the best decision I’ve made for my firm. If you want an IT expert who charges reasonable rates and is not just an IT guy, but a valuable member of your team, call Zach.

My Firm Runs Like a Well-Oiled Machine

I’ve worked with Zach for over 15 years. Digital Crisis takes their time to understand my practice and doesn’t try to shove a cookie-cutter system down our throat. When Digital Crisis first came in, they took the time to understand our firm and helped streamline and modernize our processes.

My Firm’s Efficiency DOUBLED Overnight

I thought my firm was doing just fine with my previous IT setup- boy, was I wrong! Digital Crisis came in Updated Equipment and Technology. I wish I had used them ten years earlier when I first met Zach. You will be sold immediately by their knowledge, patience, and willingness to help.

Digital Crisis Saves Us Thousands Every Year

We used to enter data quarterly that would easily take an average of two weeks each quarter to enter. Then, when Digital Crisis came in, they fully automated our process, taking minutes instead of weeks to process the same data, not only faster but more accurately, removing room for human error. The new system gets things done faster and saves us thousands every year in labor alone!

We Make Money FASTER Because of Digital Crisis

In 2010, my business had an old DOS-based server from 1995 that ran our proprietary software, which crashed. If it weren’t for Zach, we’d have to start completely over! Not only was Digital Crisis able to restore all our data, but they were also able to migrate us to a modern system which allowed us to get paid faster and work remotely.

They Rescued My Practice

On a Friday, my practice had to be moved immediately without any notice. Digital Crisis not only managed to come out and get our IT up and running, but they had our phones and internet up and running by Monday morning, and we didn’t lose a single day of business!  I can’t recommend Zach and his team enough.

I Never Lost a Day of Work During the Pandemic

Zach truly understands my firm’s needs and always provides valuable tips and tools to make my firm run more efficiently. For example, when the COVID pandemic hit in 2020, I didn’t lose a single day of work since Digital Crisis had me set up on their cloud system, and I could remote in from anywhere.
