AI vs Human Assistant: Which is the Superhero?

Technology can make you feel superhuman but effective delegation is a smart leader’s superpower. With all his skills and technology, Batman still would’ve failed without the assistance of his right-hand man, Alfred. 

It takes smart humans and powerful technology to create something great. Together, they can produce higher growth rates, empower teams, and create a culture of trust and accountability in organizations. When your humans and technology are out of balance, your morale and productivity take a hit.

Wonder Woman can announce her famous “no thank you” to assistance, but smart leaders shouldn’t. By combining human assistant expertise with AI tools, you will get a taste of what it feels like to save Gotham and your company, one less task at a time.  

We Can be Heros with a Hybrid Approach

Together we can be heroes just for one day, or a full business quarter. Human assistants can use AI tools to improve their productivity by integrating them into their workflows allowing for task automation, insights, and time management support.

Spiderman endorsed the hybrid approach when he said, “great leaders take responsibility for their teams.” In this context, this means integrating AI and human assistants to capitalize on their respective strengths:

  • AI tackles task: Automating repetitive tasks such as data entry allows human assistants to focus on complexities
  • Humans manage nuances and interactions: Human assistants can master AI tools, address sensitive issues, and engage in strategic planning that requires emotional intelligence and creativity
  • Superhero Team: AI can provide data-driven insights that inform and enhance human decision-making 

With that said, let mission “Hybrid Approach” commence.

Mission Saving the Heart of Data

The rapid-fire AI processing of structured and unstructured data is faster than Quicksilver and Flash. This capability allows AI to process in microseconds while minimizing human errors by detecting anomalies, data patterns, and conducting real-time performance monitoring.  

Yet, the emotional intelligence and ethical consideration that AI lacks but lives in humans is the essence of “Avengers…Assemble”. It is a superpower us civilians will (hopefully) never share with machines. Human assistants interpret data to ensure decisions align with organizational values. This is the heart of “process” in “data processing” and why a symbiotic relationship between AI and humans is necessary to fight for what is right. 

Mission Defeating Task Villains

The task villain is a threat to a company like the Joker is to Gotham. There will always be more administrative work than a team can manage because as your team grows, your tasks grow with it. Automating work like scheduling and data entry frees up time for human assistants to concentrate on more complex and value-added activities like saving humanity and: 

  • Custom-follow ups
  • Preparing you for your meetings 
  • Streamline your processes

Tools like Calendly and Zoom.ai can schedule meetings automatically based on calendar availability, eliminating the need for back-and-forth communication. Your human assistant can step in to manage complex scheduling, smooth over miscommunications, and manage the scheduling experience.

Mission Avenging Financial Drain

Dollar Bill from Watchmen is on the edge of his seat reading this because implementing AI solutions often requires substantial upfront investment. Businesses could spend as much as $100,000 on custom-built systems in addition to ongoing monthly subscription fees of $500 or more. If you are a small business with a limited budget, your financial drain would need to be avenged. 

As businesses grow, scaling AI systems is not as easy as spiderman scales buildings – it is often costly. Human assistants are agile, adaptable, and although they can’t yet scale buildings (unless you are Alain Robert), they don’t require significant reprogramming to handle increased demands.
