Choose a bounded task
Start with repetitive internal work such as summarizing an approved report, preparing a non-sensitive checklist or categorizing anonymized enquiries. Avoid exposing personal information, commercial secrets or regulated data to tools without proper authorization.
Define success and safeguards
Specify who approves outputs, what data may be used, the error rate, turnaround time and a method of escalation. A human must remain accountable for high-stakes decisions such as safety actions, employment or formal compliance reports.
Pilot before scaling
Test a representative sample, document incorrect answers, train users and compare results against the original process. Introduce version control and periodic checks so a successful demonstration does not become an unsafe unattended production process.
Put this into practice
- Identify one repetitive task with low data sensitivity.
- Create acceptance criteria and a human-review checkpoint.
- Measure error and time savings in a small trial.
