Workshop 1 of 8
Ever wondered how Generative AI (GenAI) can turn the tide for complex business challenges but felt lost at where to begin? This workshop promises to not only illuminate the path to identifying your business challenge but also to meticulously assess whether GenAI holds the key to your innovative solutions. By the end of this guide, you’ll possess a crystal-clear strategy to leverage GenAI for enhancing your business operations, ensuring you stay ahead in the competitive landscape.
Step 1
Demystifying GenAI
If needed, kickstart with an enlightening session on GenAI, spotlighting its capabilities in areas like text summarization, classification, and more. Foster an interactive Q&A to dispel doubts and build a common ground of understanding.
Step 2
Spotlighting Business Challenges
Brainstorm and document prevailing business challenges. Select the challenges the team would like to collectively brainstorm and identify potential GenAI applications.
Example: Highlighting delayed customer service responses as a challenge and contemplating GenAI for automated responses.
Step 3
Assessing the AI Solution Fit
The group evaluates each selected identified challenge and if genuinely requires an AI-based solution or if alternative approaches could suffice, considering factors like complexity, data dependency, and potential impact. Engage in discussions with domain experts and utilize decision matrices to assess the suitability of AI solutions.
Step 4
Feasibility Check with GenAI (1 hour)
Proceed to analyze the feasibility of deploying GenAI for the chosen challenges, taking into account data availability, ethical concerns, and projected benefits. Experiment with AI models to simulate potential outcomes or insights. For instance, employing an AI to draft summaries of customer feedback.
AI Alternative: Leverage a tool like OpenAI's GPT for creating prompts. Example prompt:
Provide a summary of the main issues and suggestions from the latest customer feedback, focusing on themes and sentiment.
Step 5
Designing GenAI Solutions (1 hour)
Outline GenAI-powered solutions, detailing implementation strategies and necessary resources. Present solutions (if breaking out into groups) to the wider group for critique and refinement.
Step 6
Crafting an Action Plan (30 minutes)
Formulate a step-by-step action plan for the proposed GenAI application, highlighting milestones, deadlines, and assignees.
