Most people think AI capability means knowing how to write prompts. That is a small part of it, and it is usually the least valuable part in the long run. The real differentiator is simpler and harder at the same time. It is being the person who can take messy work, unclear inputs, scattered data, and fragmented routines, then turn that into something reliable. Something others can use.
