# Human Introduction

Well.. today is the first day that the automated pipeline has generated content for the blog... still a bit of work to do including

1. establishing a permanent vectordb solution (chromadb? pg_vector?)
|
|

2. Notification to Matrix that something has happened

3. Updating Trilium so that the note is marked as blog_written=true

AI is good at *finding connections* and *handling ambiguity*, but it’s *not good at precision*. When you need to ensure that a calculation is accurate, or that a mapping is flawless, AI is not the best choice. And that’s where humans shine. We’re good at *seeing* the connection between two things, even if it’s not obvious. We’re good at *precision* and *accuracy*.

> *“I was given a list of work types that could be grouped into 1 of 2 categories exclusively.”*
|
||||||
|---|---|---|
|
> *“The problem was… the ‘work types’ and work requests were at best tangentially related.”*
|
||||||
| Ambiguous data | ❌ | AI struggles with context |
|
|
||||||
| Repetitive tasks | ✅ | AI handles math and logic |
|
|
||||||
| Creative decisions | ❌ | AI lacks the ability to think creatively |
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So I had to manually read each work type and map it to a work request. It was a *shudder-inducing* task.

## The Final Thought
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So, in summary:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* **AI is not the best choice** when you need precision, accuracy, or a human touch.
|
|
||||||
* **AI is the best choice** when you need to handle ambiguity, find connections, or automate repetitive tasks.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
And that’s why I’m a journalist, a developer, and a DevOps expert. I know when to trust the machine and when to rely on my brain.
