The hot new AI job every grad should get into, according to an AI chief product officer

You bought the AI tool. Nobody touched it. $200/month gone.

You're not alone — and you're not tech-stupid. The AI industry made this confusing on purpose.

Here's what's actually interesting: major companies are now creating a brand new role called "AI Ops." Not engineers. Not data scientists. People who understand business workflows and figure out where AI fits inside them.

That tells you something important. The biggest AI wins aren't coming from technology decisions. They're coming from workflow decisions. Someone who knows the business deeply — that's you — identifying one specific, repetitive task and asking "could AI handle this?"

That's the entire job. That's the unlock.

You don't need a consultant. You don't need to learn code. You need to pick one workflow your team repeats every single week and ask whether a simple AI tool could do it faster or cheaper. Start there. One workflow. Thirty days. Measure it.

That first win changes everything — your confidence, your team's buy-in, and your competitive position.

What's one task your team does manually every week that you've always thought "there has to be a better way"?
