Which of these is most likely to make you think:
“There has to be a better way to do this.”
A — The PowerPoint nobody can follow
B — The dashboard nobody can interpret
C — The SOP nobody actually uses
D — The training deck everyone forgets
Comment A, B, C or D.
And if none of them wins because you have an even worse example, I definitely want to hear that too.
I’m collecting the answers for a small Workbench content experiment.

My core stack is less "generate pretty pictures" and more "build the pipeline that does the thinking":
n8n — the glue. Great for orchestrating multi-step agent workflows and connecting APIs without writing a service from scratch. Weakness: gets messy fast on complex branching logic, and debugging a broken node chain eats time.
RAG (usually with a vector DB + LangChain-style retrieval) — lets me ground LLM output in actual client data instead of hallucinated generalities. Strength: dramatically improves accuracy for domain-specific asks. Weakness: chunking/retrieval quality is finicky, and a bad embedding setup silently tanks results without throwing an error.
Claude/GPT for reasoning + code — my default for anything needing judgment: analysis writeups, SQL/Python generation, proposal drafting. Strength: fast iteration. Weakness: still needs a human check on numbers — confident-sounding ≠ correct.
Power BI / Tableau — where the AI output actually becomes something a client trusts. AI can shortcut the analysis, but the dashboard is what gets signed off on.
The honest lesson: the "AI" part is maybe 30% of the workflow. The rest is validation, data plumbing, and making the output legible to a non-technical stakeholder.
Silent failures are what I watch closest. I treat an answer as untrusted unless I can show exactly which source text the model read, because fluent output can hide a bad match.
