Supporting context
This article is a personal announcement rather than a research piece, so its evidentiary value lies in practitioner experience rather than data. Banc grounds his methodology in a repeated life pattern: observe a new environment, learn how it works, then create something useful within it, applied across countries, industries, and now AI adoption. His practical advice for AI process improvement follows a disciplined small-experiment structure: identify unwritten judgment and exceptions from frontline workers, pick one narrow test, assign clear ownership, and measure time, cost, or quality before and after. Readers can apply this by starting with a single bounded workflow rather than a broad transformation. The commentary is supported by a commenter, Aleksandar Draganic, who echoes that low-stakes testing beats waiting for certainty.
