"I've been told AI can do everything for my business. Is that true?"
I get this question quite often. My answer is always the same: Start small.
After 30 years in IT, R&D, and engineering, I've learned that AI delivers the greatest value when it's used as a builder, not as a worker for repetitive tasks.
For example, instead of asking AI to process 1,000 pages of bank statements every month, ask AI to build a deterministic system that can process those statements automatically. Once the system is built, it can run millions of times without repeatedly relying on AI.
Using this approach, our AI consumption dropped from 32 billion tokens in the first month to around 3 billion tokens the following month.
Don't use AI to repeatedly do the work. Use AI to build the system that does the work.
Start small. Build once. Scale forever.
