Juan, thank you for sharing this so openly and practically. I deeply appreciate your clear step-by-step approach, you're directly addressing the real concerns and hesitations many business leaders feel when considering AI.
While I resonate strongly with the idea of starting small, testing carefully, and using AI to reduce friction, I believe there's another layer worth emphasizing explicitly: the human role in guiding, reflecting on, and adapting AI solutions thoughtfully. In my experience, what truly unlocks the full power of AI isn't just efficiency or automation. It's human clarity, intentional reflection, and thoughtful decision-making, exactly the skills AI itself can’t replace.
The approach you've outlined here, focusing on real problems, careful testing, and clear evaluation, perfectly aligns with the idea of what I call "The Cognitive Canvas," where we intentionally create space for clarity, reflection, and judgment in our use of AI tools.
I particularly appreciate how you highlight the importance of not just deploying AI, but continuously learning and staying flexible. To me, that's key. It's not about making a one-time decision to adopt a tool, but rather developing an ongoing, reflective process to integrate and adapt AI thoughtfully within our businesses.
Thanks again for bringing practical clarity to a complex topic. You've provided a strong foundation for thoughtful adoption, something all of us should be reflecting on, clearly and explicitly, as we move forward.
Thank you for your thoughtful remarks. If you have an article about the canvas, I will take a look. Seems like an interesting layer to keep into account.
Thank you Ezra. Reflection, Engineering and Leadership. I think you should build a formula that is easy to remember. Perhaps play with an acronym. It makes a lot of sense what you write here and will be useful for people who want some sort of cheat sheet to write…to think through before just give a prompt. I typically start with a pain point that my audience has and look for ways to solve it, easy to remember and different than what they normally see. I am still learning. This was a good food for thought. Thank you
Juan, this is one of the best pieces I have read so far. You suggested very clear, actionable steps. When is the webinar and training session? I look forward to learning more about the next steps and discussing collaborative ideas.
Thank you Yusuf! I'll let you know when...working on it. Cheers!
