It takes a lot of effort to put these
00:00:02
tools into the workflow. It's a lot of
00:00:05
organization change stuff. It requires a
00:00:08
lot of help from your employees. You
00:00:10
know, even in white-collar jobs, the
00:00:12
idea that you're just going to pop an AI
00:00:14
agent into it, or you can sprinkle it
00:00:16
like pixie dust throughout the
00:00:18
organization, you know, you got to
00:00:19
figure out where to do it. Uh you've got
00:00:22
to get those employees to help you train
00:00:24
even a
00:00:25
chat GPT-like instrument so that it's
00:00:28
giving you the answers that really are
00:00:30
useful. You got to check it to make sure
00:00:32
it's not giving you stuff that's dumb.
00:00:34
Every time you change the question a
00:00:36
little bit, you got to be checking that
00:00:38
stuff. So, you do need employees' help
00:00:40
on this.
00:00:42
And if you're not getting it, it's not
00:00:43
going to work very well.
