Warning by CTO of Meta

"No One Should Be Using AI Just for the Sake of Using It."

That was the recent warning from Meta's Chief Technology Officer.

And he is right.

Today, many people proudly say they are using AI.

They use AI agents to run errands for them.
They use AI agents to creating marketing campaigns
They use it to generate reports.

But if we are honest, many are simply using AI because everyone else is using AI.

Using AI alone does not create value.

Just as owning a gym membership does not create fitness.
Just as buying a piano does not create music.

The real question is:

What are you using AI for?  Whatever AI can do, it 

  • cannot determine what truly matters to you.
  • cannot decide what is right when values conflict.
  • cannot build genuine trust between people.

This is where Love Intelligence (LQ) becomes essential.

LQ is the human capability to create trust, exercise judgment, and build meaningful connections.

When AI is combined with LQ:

  • AI provides speed.  LQ provides wisdom.

  • AI provides information. LQ provides meaning.

  • AI provides options. LQ provides judgment.

  • AI provides output. LQ creates outcomes.

The future does not belong to people who merely use AI.

It belongs to people who know how to combine AI with human qualities that machines cannot replicate.

In an age where content is abundant, trust becomes scarce.

And those who can create trust will create value.

That is why I believe the next competitive advantage is not Artificial Intelligence alone.

It is Artificial Intelligence powered by Love Intelligence.

If you would like to discover how LQ can help you create wealth, success, trust, and meaningful results in the AI era, explore my books:

Love Intelligence (LQ) and 爱的智慧

LQ Books by Andy Ng

Because the future belongs not to those who simply use AI,
but to those who know how to lead it.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
