Applying AI at Work - lesson 1

Find the work AI should be doing

Before you automate anything, find out where your hours actually go.

What you will take away:

  • Most people automate the wrong task first, because they pick the annoying one rather than the frequent one.
  • Score candidate tasks on frequency, time cost, tolerance for error and how much context the task needs.
  • High frequency, low stakes, self contained tasks are where the return is.
  • Anything requiring relationship, negotiation or accountability stays with you.
