New possibilities for working life

The world of work is changing, and AI offers new ways to approach familiar tasks. It can help organise information, create drafts and think through processes. I am especially interested in how we can use these possibilities while keeping a clear view of our own work.

Here I want to share practical examples for people at work, as well as sole traders and small businesses that handle many responsibilities themselves. My experience of building my own business is part of that picture.

Start with a specific task

A useful starting point is something that actually occurs in your work: structuring an enquiry, bringing information together from several documents or writing a clear explanation. The situation and the desired result can usually be described quite precisely.

I want to show what information an AI needs, how an initial draft can be improved and how to check the result against the original task.

Self-employment and small businesses

When you work on your own or in a small business, many tasks come together. You look after customers, organise the work and develop what you offer. AI can support individual steps and help bring some order to a task.

Sometimes a good template is enough. Sometimes a small software tool makes sense, taking care of recurring steps or connecting existing tools. The best way to find out is to try it on a clearly defined task.

Consider the full effort

How much preparation was needed? What had to be corrected? Can the approach be reused? These questions help show where AI may be useful for a particular way of working.

Our experience and judgement remain part of the process. It is worth checking information and making important decisions deliberately.

Sharing experiences

Developing my apps, building this website and organising projects all raise questions that may be useful to others too. I want to turn these experiences into clear examples and welcome your own ideas and feedback.

Which part of your work would you like to simplify? Tell me about your starting point and the result you want. That can be the basis for a useful first experiment.
