Frameworks

How I think

The methods I use to get AI into production: what to do first, where it fits in the work, and how far to trust it.

The philosophy

Make AI Boring

AI earns its keep in the boring part: in production, measured, and trusted exactly as far as it’s reliable.

The methods

Make AI boring is the philosophy. Three methods put it to work at three altitudes: the portfolio, the workflow, and the single decision.

  1. What should we do first?

    Risk-Tiered AI Adoption

    Sequence AI by risk, not by one ROI gate: start inside, build the muscle, then go customer-facing.

  2. Where does AI fit in the work?

    Fix First, AI Last

    Map the work before you buy the tool: most stuck points need a process fix or a simple rule, not AI.

  3. How far should we trust it?

    Calibrated Trust

    Fluency isn’t truth. Use AI where checking is cheaper than doing, and trust it exactly as far as it has earned.
