How to automate this
Low priority to automate, but here is the gist if you want to try.
Judgment, review & checks
Automate the checks, keep the decision with a person.
- 1Write down the rules and checklists you follow to specify inputs accessed by the system and plan the distribution and use of the results, then encode them so routine cases are flagged automatically.
- 2Add validation rules to catch errors before they reach you.
- 3Let AI pre-screen and surface the exceptions, you decide the hard ones.
