Episode notes
Design Human-First, Sustainable Automations
- Build AI solutions to augment humans, not replace them, and ensure each automation saves time or increases quality.
- Scope automations incrementally and design for sustainability so they don’t drift or create new bottlenecks.
Think Of Agents As Products
- Treat AI agents as software products with user-centered design, versioning, and maintenance processes.
- Small, single-purpose agents are easier to update and sustain than monolithic multifunction agents.
Use Copilot Inside Your Microsoft Boundary
- Use Microsoft 365 Copilot agents inside your organization to keep data within the corporate firewall and simplify security concerns.
- Check licensing: users need the Copilot agent license to create or use shared agents, so involve IT early.
