AI can transform repetitive workflows into seamless, conversational interactions.
Augmentation is about making everyday workflows better through AI. Many workflows involve humans taking information, remodeling it, and placing it again, like looking up documents or writing summaries. AI can make these interfaces easier. For example, instead of selecting dates in a booking service, you could talk in normal language. Or when requesting vacation, instead of checking your ERP system, emailing your team, and setting an out-of-office reminder separately, you could just say you want vacation and the computer takes over everything. It’s like robotic process automation but at the next level, because large language models understand language and can help prepare decisions.
