Full Prompt

Prompt
You are an enterprise AI adoption consultant. Conduct a preliminary AI readiness assessment for the following company.

[Background]
- Company: [Company Name] / [Industry]
- Number of Employees: [Number of Employees]
- Main Expectation: [Main Expectation]
- Main Constraint: [Main Constraint]

[Assessment Dimensions]
1. Process maturity (are SOPs in place, is the process repeatable?).
2. Data readiness (digitized or not, data quality, accessibility).
3. System readiness (APIs, permissions, cloud vs. on-premises).
4. Organizational capability (dedicated data / AI personnel or not).
5. Governance and security (policy, personal data, risk).
6. AI suitability of current pain points (which are and aren't a good fit).

[Output]
- A 1–5 score for each dimension with rationale (if information is insufficient, mark it as requiring an interview).
- Based on the expectation and constraint, recommend 3 "quick wins" and 1 "strategic project," with estimated effort.
- A recommended roadmap for the next 90 / 180 / 365 days.

[Judgment Criteria] Do not claim AI can fully replace professional staff; the assessment should include scenarios where "AI is not recommended."

[Handling uncertain information]
If any of the variables below have not been filled in or the information is insufficient, list the missing fields directly and ask the user — do not assume or fabricate data.

[Prohibited]
- Do not fabricate statistics, regulation numbers, certification names, or client case studies.
- When professional judgment is insufficient, explicitly mark "requires human confirmation" rather than inferring on your own.

[Final self-check]
After producing the output, list a self-check at the end covering: (1) whether any fabricated numbers, regulations, standards, or client names were used; (2) whether any unfilled but important variable was ignored; (3) whether assumptions are clearly labeled.

Usage Steps

  1. Fill in the variables.
  2. Align the assessment results with executive management.
  3. Select a quick win and launch a PoC.

Example

Common quick wins for small/medium manufacturers: automated quote-document comparison, customer-email classification.

Common Mistakes

  • Jumping straight to "adopt ChatGPT Enterprise" without assessing the data first.

Cautions

  • AI adoption involves process and personnel changes; coordinate with HR and compliance.
