The U³ AI Framework for SMB Problem Solving

This Medium article by Greg Twemlow introduces the U-cubed, aka U³ (Understand, Uncover, Unlock) framework, a three-step AI-powered problem-solving process for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). The framework leverages ChatGPT to efficiently analyse historical data, identify root causes, and generate actionable solutions. Twemlow details each step, providing example prompts and highlighting ChatGPT's role in enhancing transparency, speed, and objectivity. The article also promotes a free consultation to help SMBs implement the U³ framework. A copyright claim for the framework's name is asserted within the text.About the Author - Greg Twemlow writes and teaches at the intersection of technology, education, and human judgment.
