1. Start here

The fastest way to waste time with AI is asking it random questions all day. The fastest way to create risk is handing it entire areas of your business before you know what it's good at. The middle path is delegation: deciding what AI should do, what it should only draft, what it should help you think through, what it should never touch, and what needs human approval before it becomes real.

2. The delegation system

Choose the right mode for each task (do, draft, or advise), watch for the biases that creep in when AI sounds confident, and score tasks on repeatability, risk, and verifiability instead of delegating by gut. High-score tasks get handed off; low-score tasks stay human-owned.

3. Gates, verification, and earned automation

Approval gates sit in front of anything that becomes real — sent, published, charged. Outputs get verified until trust is earned, and only proven, repeatable delegations graduate to automation. This is the capstone skill the agent, automation, and security days build toward.
