Why this topic matters

Automation and AI have stopped being buzzwords, they're now core to how productive teams work. Done well, they free people from remembering repetitive tasks, so there's more capacity for complex problems, and more presence for customers and colleagues. They're also not the same thing: you can automate without AI, and use AI without automation. This lesson gives you a framework to tell them apart.
