Lead sorting, support routing, summary generation, and report preparation are good places to start because the output can still be reviewed by a human.
These are usually lower-risk wins than trying to automate business-critical decisions too early.
Use It To Assist, Not Pretend
The most useful AI systems often sit inside a workflow as an assistant rather than replacing the workflow itself.
That makes quality easier to audit and keeps teams from assuming more confidence than the model actually deserves.

A powerful model inside a weak operational wrapper still produces a bad business result.
Logging, approval steps, fallback behavior, and clean interfaces usually create more value than model novelty alone.
