Revisiting alignment for human–AI integration: A proposal for centered evaluation

The AI tool didn't fail because of the technology. It failed because nobody figured out where you ended and it began.

That "$200/month nobody uses" situation? It's more common than any vendor will admit. And it's almost never your fault. The tool was sold as a solution before anyone understood the actual problem.

Here's what a recent research paper on human-AI integration got right: effective AI isn't about the tool doing more. It's about understanding exactly where human judgment stops and AI assistance starts. When that boundary is clear, adoption follows naturally.

Most implementations skip this step entirely. They drop software into your workflow and call it done. Then wonder why the team reverts to old habits within a week.

The fix is simpler than you think.

Before evaluating any AI tool, write down one specific task that costs your team 3+ hours per week. Just one. Then ask only: can this tool handle that task without changing anything else? If yes, that's your starting point.

One problem. One tool. Thirty days to prove it works.

That's how you get your first real AI win — without touching what already works.

What's the one task in your business that keeps stealing time every single week?
