🔎 Ops Prompt of the Week
Prompt:
“You are an operations intelligence assistant. Review the past week's system logs, summarize top anomalies in 3 bullet points, and then recommend one action or triage step per anomaly.”What it does: Scans logs for issues, highlights what's critical, and proposes immediate actions.
Why it matters: Removes the need to sift through noise, enabling teams to zero in on real incidents fast.
How to vary: Replace logs with “support ticket text,” “sensor alerts,” or “customer complaints.” Adjust summary length or tone as needed.

💡 AI Insight of the Week
Insight: Orchestration is the New AI
The platforms are aligning: Mistral, Microsoft, Uber, and OpenAI are investing in agents and data-foundry integrations. What’s emerging is orchestration as a first-class system component — and operations leaders should start modeling workflows as curated agent pipelines rather than standalone tooling.
Why it matters:
• Makes SOPs dynamic and data-driven.
• Enables real-time ops interventions.
• Offers a path to scale automated operations without endless scripts or point tools.
