Stop Asking “Where Can We Use AI?”

AI use cases are not one thing. AI can support individual cognition, help people build systems, perform bounded inference inside deterministic workflows, interpret complex information, or participate in governed multi-step processes. The key is to start with the business need and determine where AI actually adds value, where deterministic systems should remain authoritative, and where the real constraint may be data, integration, process, or infrastructure instead.
