Summary

When evaluating AI, do not just count how many tasks the machine has run. Ask whether the results help someone make a decision or remove a manual step. Good technology must have a place in everyday work.

A common situation

Illustrative scenario: A team leader receives more AI-generated summaries. At the meeting, nobody still knows which item needs attention first. He needs to spend less time searching, not receive more pages.

Three steps you can try

  1. Choose one decision that needs support.
  2. Identify the minimum information needed for that decision.
  3. Remove report sections that do not lead to action.

What to remember

When evaluating AI, do not just count how many tasks the machine has run. Ask whether the results help someone make a decision or remove a manual step. Good technology must have a place in everyday work.

This is a hypothetical illustration, not an ACC customer testimonial or project result.
