7 steps
- 1. List 5 tasks that repeat every week: emails, reports, client replies, translations.
- 2. Pick one — the most boring and clear-cut.
- 3. Try the free version of ChatGPT or Claude on an anonymised example.
- 4. Save a prompt that works as a template everyone can use.
- 5. Agree the rules: which data must not go to AI, and who checks the answers.
- 6. For confidential data, use a local model (Ollama, LM Studio) on your own computer.
- 7. After a month, count the hours saved and pick the next task.
Common mistakes
- Trusting answers without checking — AI can be confidently wrong about facts and figures.
- Uploading personal data to public services.
- Trying to automate everything at once — one task used daily is better.
- Not training staff — then AI stays a toy.
What it costs
You can start for free: ChatGPT, Claude and other services have free versions. Paid plans make sense once AI becomes a working tool. A local model needs no subscription — just suitable hardware.
FAQ
Questions and answers
How long does it take to learn?
The basics take one or two sessions. After that the skill grows by itself if you use it daily.
Do we need to know English?
No: ChatGPT and Claude understand Russian and Georgian well.
