Treat AI as a set of clearly defined roles—not a universal replacement for human judgment. Decide whether it is acting as a scribe, thought partner, data synthesizer, or counselor in each workflow, and set expectations accordingly.
Clear role boundaries help teams use AI consistently, evaluate its output appropriately, and retain human accountability where judgment is required.
Choose one recurring workflow and write down: What role should AI play, what inputs may it use, what output should it produce, and who remains accountable for the final decision?
