Chapter 5
Bring It Into the Work
Getting more comfortable with AI usually comes through using it, talking about what works, and having helpful resources nearby when you need them.
Here are a few ways that can continue beyond the course.
-
Manager Conversations
Talk about where AI may be useful.
Where could AI make part of our team’s work easier? Where might we want to be more thoughtful?
-
Peer Sharing
Share what you’re learning.
What worked well? What didn’t? What would you try differently next time?
-
Helpful Resources
Keep useful resources close by.
A simple prompt guide, review checklist, or example can make it easier to use AI when you’re in the middle of the work.
-
Practice
Try it in lower-risk situations first.
Use smaller, lower-stakes tasks to build familiarity before applying AI to more complex or higher-impact work.
Bring One Use Case Forward
Think about one task in your own work where you could try this approach.
- What are you trying to accomplish?
- Where is the friction?
- Where could AI support part of the work?
- What still needs your judgment?
Start with one real task. Use AI where it can help. Take a closer look when needed. Keep your judgment in the process.
You’ve completed AI at Work.
You’ve looked at where AI can help, when it’s worth taking a closer look, how to give it clearer direction, and where your own judgment still matters.
