Day 2 / 4

From Idea to Workflow

Mapping the invisible connections

The Challenge

Data foundation, Agent logic, Workflow mapping, Human-in-the-Loop patterns, Operating logic, Risk and escalation points.

Key Concepts

  • Data foundation: The substrate upon which AI systems operate
  • Agent logic: How decisions are made and propagated
  • Workflow mapping: Making process visible
  • Human-in-the-Loop: Where human judgment remains essential

Focus Areas

  • Data foundation
  • Agent logic
  • Workflow mapping
  • Human-in-the-Loop patterns
  • Operating logic
  • Risk and escalation points

Core Principle

Automation does not remove responsibility. Understanding where decisions live and who is accountable for outcomes requires explicit mapping of workflows.

Reflections

Data foundations, agent logic, workflow mapping — these are not abstract concepts but concrete decisions that shape what an AI system can and cannot do. Understanding where responsibility lives in automated systems is fundamental to building trustworthy systems.
