I'm used to seeing articles about AI being used for either highly scientific uses or for generating semi-entertaining nonsense. For a personal business involving managing appointments, documenting meetings, tracking payments etc, can AI help with any of that? Other things include undertaking CPD training, occasional advertising as well as maintaining a website from time-to-time.

The people I know who don't think AI has any use for them belong in this category and work in the area of mental health, yoga teaching / training, nursing and massage therapy.

My company uses an LLM to summarize a report. Basically give it all the data and tell it what normal looks like so it can write stuff like "26,000 users this month, a minor decrease from last month. This is not an issue as it is within normal bounds."

I don't see the point, but management felt we had to put AI in SOMETHING so other companies don't have a marketing advantage.

We've been working on anomaly detection for a while with Machine Learning, which is really more impressive but much harder.
