We work on site 
to build rapport
And yet
we host all meetings 
v  i  r  t  u  a  l  l  y
to get the transcript 
for feeding into AI
so that AI can tell us
the nuances
the expressions
the underlying meaning
the subtext that we missed
because we were remote
and not in person
where we could have 
smelled the anger
or sensed the joy
and so we rely on GPTs
to parse the paragraphs
into pixelated 
go-forward postures
so that we can understand
what one human
said to another
about technology
and people
and processes.

And then we manually
upload he output
onto a cloud-based 
storage repository
where we feed it 
into another GPT
to confirm the analysis
which we then pull down
and manually type
into a cloud-based spreadsheet
which we then feed 
to another GPT
to fuel an agent
that will tell us 
how to do our jobs. 

In the end, I suppose:
It is not efficient, 
but it is expensive!
