What will benefit from GenAI and take off...
Everyone wants to build agents today. But does it make sense? How do you know that you really need GenAI to solve a problem? What will sustain? ..And what is just a fad?
✨ Three ways you can use Generative AI services today
- Chat web interface: CoPilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, etc, which are instantly available and you get started quickly. Use AI in your day to day tasks.
- Application programming Interfaces: Like OpenAI APIs, AWS Bedrock APIs; for developers and teams building products, gives you faster time to market; but keep check of cost and data sharing.
- Direct or open-source: Run AI on your own infra, within your own network. This is expensive! Training requires compute power, but 100% secure as you own everything!
✨ Two ways you can launch your Generative AI app
- For your organization internal use. Adopt existing products, use in every day tasks and implement specialised business solutions for internal products.
- For external use, identify customer problems and solve them.
✨ What are the business drivers?
But what are the business drivers?
- Automation: Automate manual and error prone tasks (Not robotic process automation)
- Augmentation: A helpful assistant, or co-worker, you get more done and level up your expertise
- Differentiation: Advisory, optimization, etc
Your GenAI product should either save time and money, or earn money, skills and expertise!
✨ What will (probably) not sustain in the long run
- Generic wrappers on large language models
- AI for just about anything without any unique value proposition
- Anything that can be easily done on ChatGPT or Gemini by writing a prompt
- Anything the big players may add as a feature
✨ What will (probably) sustain in the long run
- Boring workflows that will indeed save money (enterprises make most of their money from boring stuff)
- Domain specific workflows that are error-prone and best done with AI
- Anything that needs specialized AI use, what ChatGPT or Gemini can’t do or won’t do
✨ Ask yourself…
Can AI help solve this problem
Faster
Cheaper
Better
..and at scale
- Map the problem
- Identify pain points worth solving
- Find where AI can help
✨ How AI Agents can help?
- Tasks human can do, but never find time for
- Tasks humans aren’t good at
- Tasks which should be best left to machines
- Tasks which humans simply can’t do
