Maybe some devs here can help me, I was recently promoted to "head of AI" at my work despite being very outwardly ambivalent towards it. So I'm struggling to figure out what would actually create value instead of just being an expensive waste of time but still satisfy the higher ups AI lust.

My first idea that I thought would actually be useful was just setting up the architecture for an actual analytics database for us and then let them explore it with metabase (then letting them use Claude for their wow factor of exploring it with AI or whatever).

But now I'm somewhat at a loss, so any insight you all have would be really helpful!

I’m in like 3 AI design forums for some reason but whenever I want to start measuring productivity gains I’m ignored so try that for the least amount of effort required.

Lol alright, I'll definitely keep that in mind.
