What you’ll be able to do by the end:
- 1Map a process and mark where you are the human glue.
- 2Judge which of three glue maps would help someone decide what to automate.
- 3Explain tool calls, connectors and agents, and why reliability compounds across steps.
- 4Recognise the lethal trifecta in a set-up, naming each of its three legs and the one you’d break.
- 5Choose the right control (read, draft, ask before acting, or never) for tasks at your own stakes.
The moment it clicks
“Know what it can reach and what it can do, then choose the controls.”
The rule you’ll keep
Know what it can reach, and what it can do.
General training, not advice. Follow your organisation’s policies, and get specialist advice before connecting AI to live systems or letting it act for you. What the course is, and isn’t.
