Frame the work

Choose one boring, repeatable task before choosing an AI tool

Find a narrow workflow with visible inputs and a reversible output before testing automation.

TARGET STRUCTURE

What this guide should leave behind

A one-sentence workflow boundary names the trigger, input, draft output, reviewer, and final action.

SEQUENCE / 04

Work the boundary in this order

  1. 01

    List tasks repeated weekly that consume attention but do not require hidden judgment at every step.

  2. 02

    Choose one task with a known input, a reviewable draft, and a human who already owns the final decision.

  3. 03

    Shrink the trial to one document type, one audience, and one ordinary scenario.

  4. 04

    Name what stays manual and the condition that ends the trial.

VISIBLE CHECKS

Foundations worth seeing

  • The task exists today.
  • The output can be checked before use.
  • A person owns the final action.
  • Failure can be contained and reversed.
