Artificial intelligence is no longer a futuristic idea — it is already inside the tools Sri Lankan businesses use every day. In this first issue of our AI awareness series, we look at what AI actually is (and is not), and how small businesses can benefit without big budgets.
Three things you can do this week:
1. Use AI assistants for first drafts of emails, product descriptions and social posts — then edit with your own voice.
2. Let AI summarise long documents and meetings so your team spends time deciding, not reading.
3. Be careful with sensitive data: never paste customer or financial records into public AI tools.
AI will not replace your business judgement — but businesses that use it well will move faster than those that ignore it. In coming issues we will cover AI for customer service, AI in accounting, and how to spot AI-generated scams.
