AI Integration
What you get out of AI depends on how clearly you can say what you mean.
AI in a company is usually treated as a technology question: which tool, which licence, which process. What decides whether it works is human. People use it as a better search engine, or avoid it because they are afraid, and neither gets said out loud.
Prompting is communication. It fails where communication always fails: we describe our interpretation and think we described what is there. Show people a man in a hooded robe holding a cross and they say monk. They saw a robe and a cross. I train that difference on paintings, because it shows up in seconds, and it transfers straight into what you write into a prompt and what you say to a colleague.
Teams that learn this stop treating AI as an oracle. They check what comes back, because they know what they asked for. Administration gets automated, attention returns to the work that needs a human, and the fear loses its grip because it has been named.
Whoever knows too little trusts blindly. And the people who understand least are the least likely to say so in front of their own management. Someone from outside makes that sentence sayable, and an AI rollout that nobody dares question is the most expensive kind.
A first conversation takes thirty minutes, and there is nothing to prepare.
