Start with a useful task
Before choosing an AI architecture, define a specific task and the people it should help. Map the information required, the decisions involved, and the point at which a person must take over.
Evaluate the workflow, not just the model.
Make boundaries explicit
Set limits on which tools the system may use and which actions need approval. Keep a record of its actions so your team can understand mistakes and improve the process.
Evaluate before expanding
Test representative examples, including incomplete requests and ambiguous instructions. Review accuracy, usability, privacy, and operational risk before extending the pilot.
