AI work is worth doing early when the difficulty is structural, such as organizing business knowledge for AI access.
So you know you should be doing more with AI.

Or maybe to just give up after a week because it was too hard. I'm gonna talk about the framework I used to determine when it's the right time to hand something over to AI.
In short, my philosophy is: wait until it's easy, then go hard. Whatever you're trying to do with AI, if it's worth doing, it's a pretty safe bet that it's going to be easy to do pretty soon.
One of the most common mistakes people make, and I've made it myself, is you see something that you could do if you just strung these three tools together and you bolted a few features on. AI could totally do this task.
Well, before you start building that custom solution, just ask yourself, is this something that would be valuable to other people?...
e or in the heads of your team members. Getting all of that information into structured documentation that AI can access is just gonna take some time.
If AI is not coming to save you and it's always gonna be hard, just eat the frog, do the hard work. But otherwise, wait until it's easy.
Things are moving too fast right now for you to be wasting your time on something that's going to be easy soon. But as soon as it is easy, you need to go hard.
As soon as one of the major AI platforms releases a new capability or feature that makes some task easy, there's a limited window of opportunity. Depending on your industry, you may have six months or a year from that point before it's just standard practice.
All your competitors are gonna start turning that task over to AI, or at least your serious competitors that aren't destined to be disrupted by AI in a few years. So as soon as it's clear how to turn a task over to AI, go hard.
Start testing, start putting together SOPs, start iterating on the process. Become the best business in your industry at using AI for that task...
