"I don't trust it to be right." You shouldn't
"I don't trust it to be right."
You shouldn't. That's the correct instinct and it's the wrong conclusion.
The mistake is framing this as trust vs no trust. The real question is what the model is allowed to touch.
Two categories:
Reversible work. Draft the email, summarize the call, clean the spreadsheet, write the first version of the job posting. If it's wrong, you notice in ten seconds and you fix it. Zero review process required.
Irreversible work. Anything that sends, bills, files, publishes or commits you to a client. Human signs off. Every time. No exceptions, no "we've been getting good results lately."
You already run your business this way. A new hire drafts the proposal. You send it.
Most AI failures in small companies aren't accuracy failures. They're an owner who let a reversible tool make an irreversible decision because nobody drew the line.
Where's your line?
