Most non-technical teams are only scratching the surface of AI usage. Engineering teams are moving quickly, but operations, sales, and product are often lagging behind. Here’s how to change that:
1. A Unit of Work
Do a unit of work for them e.g. some kind of spreadsheet manipulation. Once they see the quality that you can output with your lack of domain knowledge it usually clicks that they need to do this themselves.
2. Automate a Process
If there's a regular monthly or weekly task, you can distill into 10 bullet points or less, then you can help them build that as an app. For example, an app might send an email reminder requesting financial details at the end of the month, then when it receives the reply, it processes the data and comes up with talking points for a particular meeting.
3. Build a Small App
Something like a chrome extension or maybe a PDF creation app or an improvement for an existing internal application. That might just create the spark for broader app building.
Best of luck out there.
