    Unpacking AI Use Cases

    AI is a tool. It's a strategy. And it's an accelerator. But, like any powerful tool, to leverage it effectively, you need to understand how you can effectively use it. That's where your AI use cases comes in.

  • What is an AI use case?

    An AI use case is a specific example of how AI can be used to achieve a business objective. A great use case details both ‘how’ and ‘why’ you’ll be using AI giving you a solid foundation for implementation.

     

    An effective AI use case touches on four crucial elements:

     

    📑Process: The current process that you want to enhance using AI.

    Problem: The issues you're facing with the existing process.

    🔁Task or Interaction: The specific tasks that humans and AI will perform in the new process.

    🎯Goal or Measures: The desired outcome or improvement you're aiming for with AI.

     

    By defining these four elements, you create a clear picture of how AI will transform a specific business operation.

  • Let's consider an example.

    You're an L&D consultant specializing in instructional design.

     

    The process you're looking to enhance is your development of interactive, scenario-based learning modules. The challenge is the time and resources it takes to create realistic scenarios that directly relate to performance goals. Your goal is to create more engaging, contextually-rich, and relevant learning experiences.

     

    Your AI use case for this could involve utilizing generative AI like ChatGPT to create diverse and realistic learning scenarios.

     

    The task for the AI tool would be to generate various contextually relevant scenarios based on the parameters you set, like the learners' roles, industries, or specific challenges they face. Meanwhile, your role as an instructional designer would be to curate these scenarios, validate, integrate them into your learning design, and ensure they align with learning objectives.

     

    This use case not only streamlines the process to create learning scenarios. It also allows you to focus on the strategic aspect of instructional design — enhancing learning outcomes. With AI in your toolkit, you're set to deliver immersive and personalized learning experiences that resonate with your audience and drive their professional growth.
