Task decomposition — breaking work into AI-sized pieces

Write a business plan for my dairy startup. You get twelve pages of structurally correct, factually empty text: an executive summary that summarises nothing, a market section with invented figures, financials with placeholder numbers. You conclude AI is not ready for real work.

You need

Task: A business plan for a small dairy processing unit in Nashik, to take to a bank for a term loan. Purpose: bank credit appraisal, ₹85 lakh.

Tool

Any assistant, using the prompt below

You get

1. Product and segment definition — INPUT: your two supplier tie-ups, capacity from the machinery quote.

Time saved

A properly decomposed business plan takes 8–12 focused hours instead of 40. More importantly, the result is defensible.
