  "summary": "AI is not poised to replace employees, but rather to transform the nature of work by becoming integrated into the workflow itself. Rather than focusing solely on individual tasks that AI can perform, such as drafting or summarizing, the real shift lies in how AI can manage the operational layers of work. This includes monitoring inputs, preparing actions, surfacing missing information, following rules, and assisting in decision-making. The change is particularly significant because much of the work is not defined by isolated tasks but rather by the clarity of the next steps, accountability, and escalation paths. While AI can help prepare, route, monitor, and sometimes execute specific steps within a workflow, it does not relinquish the fundamental responsibilities of judgment and exception handling that remain with humans. This distinction is crucial because it highlights that AI is enhancing organizational processes by streamlining recurring responsibilities, rather than merely completing individual tasks.",
