Artificial intelligence is rarely considered at the level of entire processes or projects, as there is a common belief that it is too complex and requires expert knowledge. In reality, many applications only require analytical and communication skills. It is worth changing the narrative: AI is not an elite solution, but an accessible tool that can increase efficiency and bring structure to a team’s work. The key is not so much familiarity with specific tools, but the ability to map internal processes and organizational needs in order to understand where artificial intelligence can truly add value.
