AI is an awesome tool. But a reminder you cant blindly follow what it spits out! After spending time working with AI today on a problem it was this book that answered the question that AI couldn't...I grabbed the book becasue experience told me AI was wrong. Rely on your experience! #Intune #MDM #AI
A picture of a book, showing just the cover. The book is called Ultimate Microsoft Intune for Administrators by Paul Winstanley and David Brook.
