The lesson

An expert AI user can define the task, choose the model, protect data, provide context, control format, evaluate output, test results, and record the final workflow.

The capstone habit is to ask: What is the risk? What evidence is needed? What would prove this answer wrong? What should be saved for next time?

This course will evolve as AI changes, but the core discipline remains: clear specification, local control, human judgment, and repeatable improvement.

A theatre nurse reviews her AI workflow end to end, confirming the task, the patient details she withholds, the format of the handover sheet and what she will reuse next shift.

A veterinarian runs the capstone habit before using an AI draft for a treatment note, asking what the risk is and what evidence would show the answer wrong.

A paralegal checks each step of an AI-assisted document summary, confirming the model choice, the confidential material removed and the review her supervising lawyer must complete.

A municipal records officer reviews an AI workflow for meeting minutes, testing the output against the source agenda and recording the prompt that worked for next time.

A laboratory scientist evaluates an AI-drafted method summary by tracing every claim back to the written procedure before she files it, then saves the prompt.

A security analyst reviews an AI threat-model workflow, confirming which internal details stay out of the text and which findings a human must verify before any action.

A news desk sub-editor tests an AI-assisted fact check against the original source documents, records the prompt that held up and discards the one that did not.

A property manager reviews an AI workflow for inspection reports, defining the task, controlling the format and recording what should be reused on the next property.

An electrician reviews his AI quoting workflow, confirming the site details he supplies, the safety notes he keeps in the draft and the checks he makes before a customer sees it.

A community program officer reviews an AI workflow for service reports, asking what evidence is needed and what would prove a drafted figure wrong before it reaches funders.
