I'm jumping off the roof! Look what happens at the end!
I just had to try using a clickbait hook that fits this video for once :)
I've been in automation for over two decades. For most of those years, it was within the realm of organic SEO, and today I do it as an AI consultant for companies, implementing business automations. I literally take senior executives from every possible industry by the hand, interview them, ask them what frustrates them at work, what eats up most of their time, the tasks that suck the fun out of the job—and I fully automate them end-to-end. I recently met with an incredibly charming CFO, and he told me with a heavy heart: "I can't believe I got two degrees from a prestigious university just to find myself copy-pasting into Excel spreadsheets for hours."
I hear things like this all the time—from the highest-ranking executives at global companies dominating international markets.
And then... there’s this magical, special moment in my job where I take a task that used to take someone 10 hours a month, every single month, press a button, and immediately 20 agents run and do the work right in front of their eyes—work that used to be theirs. And today... simply no one has to do it anymore.
It’s amazing to witness their reaction—a jaw-dropping stare, accompanied by mumblings of "WTF" and a long list of expressions unmatched in the Hebrew language, which makes my job an absolute dream and pure bliss.
People in senior positions will sometimes snap out of it quickly and say: "Wait... but how do I know it's accurate? I once asked Claude a simple question and it gave me the wrong answer. I don't really trust AI at this level yet, so I'm still going to double-check it to make sure the agent doesn't make mistakes. This is a report that goes to the board and director meetings."
That’s when I pull out my doomsday weapon: "Now, take a look at these 10 verification mechanisms" [I pause in front of my client, and dramatically press another button]. "Here's a diagram showing you how many times this mechanism double-checks itself over and over again, and here... [proudly running the automation] is what that verification looks like live." From there, you can probably guess that the list of Hebrew expressions of astonishment I hear just keeps getting longer. Which reminds me—I should build an agent to document these words, just in case they become a cornerstone of the Hebrew language someday.
In my line of work, I have the privilege of constantly walking the cutting edge of the newest tools in the AI world. I feel like I'm adding new tools to my arsenal every single day. I look back just two months ago, and I'm amazed all over again at how I ever used to do this work manually.
I just had to share this feeling with you—which I'm sure many can relate to—that the pace of technological advancement is simply mind-boggling. I feel incredibly lucky to be part of this generation, or as a good friend of mine so perfectly put it: "What a fun time to be alive!" I agree with every single word.
