Managers choosing practical AI literacy · About 30 minutes

Choose an AI pilot your team can evaluate

Compare three proposed team tasks using measurable outcomes, data access and the cost of a wrong answer.

Use the sample below. No paid model, signup or course purchase is needed for this exercise.

Your starting material

Invented team proposals:
A. Turn public product release notes into an internal checklist.
B. Automatically approve customer refunds using private account records.
C. Draft an employee's final performance rating from private manager notes.
Assume the team has no new data permissions and no approved production integrations.

Make your first attempt

For each proposal, list the decision owner, available data, required permissions, observable result and consequence of a wrong answer.
Select one task that can be tried with current access. Write a manual baseline and three acceptance checks before selecting a tool.
Write a stop condition and who must review the output. Keep the exercise separate from a production deployment decision.

Check your result

Try the task before opening these checks. Tick each one after comparing it with your own output.

Proposal A can be evaluated using public material and a human reviewer.
Proposals B and C need permissions and consequential decisions that the brief does not grant.
The chosen task has an explicit source-based accuracy check.
Time saved includes reviewing and correcting output.
The pilot can be stopped without affecting customers or employees.

Checks stay on this page only. Your answers and work are not uploaded.
