The "generative" label on AI is misleading. Its true power for daily knowledge work lies not in creating artifacts, but in its superhuman ability to read, comprehend, and synthesize vast amounts of information—a far more frequent and fundamental task than writing.

By training AI on your personal data, arguments, and communication style, you can leverage it as a creative partner. This allows skilled professionals to reduce the time for complex tasks, like creating a new class, from over 16 hours to just four.

A major hurdle for enterprise AI is messy, siloed data. A synergistic solution is emerging where AI software agents are used for the data engineering tasks of cleansing, normalization, and linking. This creates a powerful feedback loop where AI helps prepare the very data it needs to function effectively.

Traditional software automated standardized processes but struggled with complex human interactions like call center support. Generative AI's ability to understand natural language allows software to automate these nuanced tasks, dramatically expanding the total addressable market by tackling problems that were previously impossible to solve with code.

Unlike consumer chatbots, AlphaSense's AI is designed for verification in high-stakes environments. The UI makes it easy to see the source documents for every claim in a generated summary. This focus on traceable citations is crucial for building the user confidence required for multi-billion dollar decisions.

Beyond automating data collection, investment firms can use AI to generate novel analytical frameworks. By asking AI to find new ways to plot and interpret data inputs, the team moves from rote data entry to higher-level analysis, using the technology as a creative and strategic partner.

Product managers often hit cognitive fatigue from constantly re-formatting the same core information for different audiences (e.g., customer notes to PRD, PRD to Jira tickets, tickets to executive summaries). Automating this "translation" work with AI frees up mental energy for higher-value strategic tasks and prevents lazy, context-poor handoffs.

Leverage AI to analyze your year's worth of data to quickly identify top-performing content. AI can then go a step further by summarizing these top pieces or extracting key takeaways, creating new derivative content from your existing assets with minimal manual effort.

Creating "best of" content roundups is now easier with AI. Instead of manually sifting through data to find top performers, marketers can use AI to quickly identify popular content and even extract key summaries, significantly speeding up the creation process and enabling deeper insights.

Morgan Stanley is leveraging AI not just for efficiency but to fundamentally reallocate how its analysts spend their time. By automating routine tasks, the firm aims to double the portion of time analysts spend directly with clients from approximately 25% to 50%, thereby increasing high-value engagement.
