Practical AI work in Saint Lucia
Created by Adrian Dunkley, MaestrosAI, for the LAC AI Playbook.
These are proposed workflows for local businesses and public-service teams, not evidence of adoption, a national ranking or a forecast of economic returns. Choose one task with a checkable output and a responsible reviewer.
Before starting
Use synthetic or approved non-sensitive information. Do not upload identity documents, medical records, financial histories, customer or employee files, or children’s information to a general chatbot. Check the tool’s current eligibility, fees, retention and access controls before use.
AI drafts must not decide credit, immigration, employment or healthcare outcomes. Qualified professionals and responsible authorities retain control of legal, clinical, engineering, navigation and emergency decisions. Drafting does not authorise sending, filing, purchasing or publishing.
1. Guest-information drafts
Prepare welcome information from a property’s current records. Confirm amenities, availability and suppliers. Dietary or health details require approved handling; do not upload identifiable guest histories to a general chatbot.
Starter prompt
Use this approved property FAQ and synthetic guest preferences to draft a welcome guide. Mark unconfirmed excursions and costs. Do not recommend a medically safe meal, assess hiking suitability or commit the property to a booking.
Check before use: Compare every consequential statement with the supplied source. Record corrections and require the responsible person to approve the result.
2. Farm diversification worksheet
A farmer and agricultural adviser can compare options using soil, water, labour, buyer and cost evidence. AI can organise the comparison but must not prescribe crops, inputs or a planting calendar from generic assumptions.
Starter prompt
Create a comparison worksheet for these adviser-approved production options. Show supplied costs, buyer evidence and cash timing. Mark missing inputs. Do not promise certification, grant eligibility, yields or export access.
Check before use: Compare every consequential statement with the supplied source. Record corrections and require the responsible person to approve the result.
3. Kwéyòl and English public information
Have competent local speakers review meaning and tone. Preserve source instructions and the author’s intent. Do not treat model fluency as proof of correct translation or cultural knowledge.
Starter prompt
Draft a plain-language version of this approved notice for review by a local language specialist. Keep dates, obligations and contacts exact. Flag terms needing review and do not claim the translation is certified.
Check before use: Compare every consequential statement with the supplied source. Record corrections and require the responsible person to approve the result.
4. Professional-services FAQ
Use current regulator or programme-owner material to create a public, non-personal FAQ. Do not reuse unverified agency names, passport access lists or claimed processing times.
Starter prompt
Turn these dated official sources into a draft FAQ. Cite the source for each answer. Mark unresolved conflicts. Do not assess eligibility, choose a financial product or publish an investment or citizenship claim without qualified approval.
Check before use: Compare every consequential statement with the supplied source. Record corrections and require the responsible person to approve the result.
Evaluate a small pilot
Record the existing task time, errors and costs. Test on a limited set of representative examples and count review/correction time as part of the work. Include cases where information is missing or contradictory. Stop if the system exposes private data, invents evidence or makes an unauthorised commitment.
Report the task, sample, dates, tool version, reviewer and observed results. Do not turn a drafting-time improvement into a national GDP, revenue, yield or health-impact claim. Set a budget from actual quotes rather than an unsupported regional estimate.
Sources and local checks
Current legal and programme requirements must be confirmed with the responsible authority. The previous unsourced agency names, trade-support claims and investment-processing figures have been removed rather than treated as current reference information.
For other tasks, maintain a small source register with the issuing body, exact document, publication/effective date, date checked and unresolved questions. Verify local institutions and programme availability before including them. Ask competent local speakers to review translations. Keep an offline process for essential work if the selected tool or connection fails.
