Workday, Anthropic, and Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) Launch AI-Focused ...

The biggest AI mistake isn't picking the wrong tool.

It's buying a tool before knowing what problem you're actually solving.

You're not alone if you're sitting on a $200/month SaaS subscription that your team quietly stopped using three months ago. That's not a failure of intelligence. That's what happens when the sales pitch is louder than the implementation plan.

Here's what caught my attention: Workday, Anthropic, and LISC just launched an accelerator giving small business owners AI skills training alongside funding. Not tools first. Training first. That sequencing matters more than most people realize.

The companies building AI are finally admitting something the gurus won't: the tool is the easy part. Knowing where to point it is the hard part.

So before you evaluate another platform, do this instead. Write down the one task that eats three or more hours of your week and produces the most inconsistent results. That's your first AI use case. One problem, one solution, measurable before and after. That's how you get a real win in 30 days without touching anything that already works.

What's the one task in your business that you keep doing manually even though you know there has to be a better way?
