How to use AI in your company: some practical use cases
Here are 5 ways you can use AI day to day to get stuff done:
1. Outsourcing tasks to agent assistants
We’re still in the very early days of AI assistants and when product teams announce new AI features, one of the most common approaches is to build an AI assistant inside their products.
Companies like Zoom and Otter have built meeting assistants that will take notes and create summaries but agent assistants currently in development take this idea to the next level. Companies like @AdeptAILabs, for example, are building bots that are specifically designed to perform tasks you’d like to outsource. And in this sense, AI agents could eventually become like additional team members, responsible for administrative tasks.
Some of the use cases the company is working on include:
• Creating a P&L spreadsheet in Google Sheets
• Sending a reminder email to a prospective sales client
• Searching for properties within a set criteria
• Adding new contacts in Salesforce
• Adept says it is building an AI that can automate any software process. This could transform the workday, allowing us to truly focus on the things we’re good at - or would rather be focused on - and outsourcing the rest.
2. Brainstorming ideas
Products like @strut_ai help teams level up their brainstorming processes by combining LLMs and prompts with the document creation process.
Napkin (https://t.co/xfG5JCAW4H) will take words and transform them into visuals that can be used for generating new ideas or consolidating / managing the ones you already have.
If you’re working on PRDs or design outlines or just general documentation, these tools can give you a massive boost.
3. Collecting and synthesising knowledge
AI can also help with the process of collecting and synthesising knowledge. Companies like @RewindAI , for example, are designed to record everything that happens during your work day and then create a searchable index of things like Slack chats, Zoom calls, Google Docs and more.
Rewind is also in the process of developing a hardware device that will record everything you say to create an even richer index of knowledge to search. Personally, I’d rather not record everything I do or say but it’ll be interesting to see what adoption rates of these types of products looks like as more users become comfortable with the idea (assuming they do).
4. Workflow automation
Workflow automation tools like @respellai are the latest iteration of no code tools that are designed to help product teams with use cases like finding insights in customer research or summarize ideas into Jira / Linear tickets.
5. Analysing data
And finally, data analysis is also rapidly transforming thanks to new AI features. This means that reports which previously took a lot of complex formulas and multiple iterations can often be done in a few minutes with natural language input.
Microsoft’s Copilot is gradually being integrated into Excel and spreadsheet / data analysis startups like @heyequals and @RowsHQ also have their own conversational interfaces which can be used to generate reports and create charts to match.
What do our delegates have to say about #OEB22? 📢
Meet @NorbertMorawetz, recently-awarded National Teaching Fellow - here's a live update from Norbert at the conference here in Berlin:
@georgefreemanMP speaking at #reSHAPE this morning;
STEM and SHAPE are equal wings of the innovation butterfly. To tackle the big challenges, to unlock the superpower of the UK innovation nation, we need to support research commercialisation and academic entrepreneurship in both
@DPDgroup_news You 'lost' my parcel for 3 months, failed to deliver them, then returned them in destroyed conditioin. 6 months on I still haven't received any compensation and my fee back, despite 'insuring' the value with you. Worst customer service ever!!!! DPD5828015 | ID:1839665
This is a story about how I lost $10,000,000 by doing something stupid.
Ten. Million. Dollars.
Literally up in smoke. Money bonfire.
That’s enough to retire with $250,000+ in annual income.
Here’s what happened…

@wizzair Hi guys... processing this claim will take the same amount of time as answering to these tweets. Maybe invest the time, and we all save a lot of time here.
