Wise Woman AI
Most people pick their first AI job by which one sounds most impressive. That is why it stalls. Score the work instead. Write down every job you do that you would rather not, give each one four scores out of five, add them up, and build the top three first.
Number one
How many times does this job come round? The boring, repeating work pays back fastest.
Number two
How long does one go take you, start to finish, including the working up to it?
Number three
Could you describe the steps to a new starter today, without stopping to think?
Number four
If it comes out wrong, who finds out? Score the safest work highest, not the riskiest.
| The job you would rather not do | How often | How long | How clear | How safe | Total |

Highest total wins. Build the top three, in order, and nothing else until they run on their own. Your first AI system should not be the most impressive job in the business. It should be the safest, most repetitive one you can clearly describe.
A low score on how clear is usually not laziness. It means the job runs on judgement, and judgement is the part worth protecting. Some work should stay human on purpose: the conversation where someone decides whether to trust you, the call that needs your read of the room, the thing your name is on. Leave those off the list and score the rest honestly.
