I recently talked to a marketer whose company added Claude to their org chart. Not as a joke, but as a real role, with defined responsibilities and a clear place in the workflow.

The useful part

I recently talked to a marketer whose company added Claude to their org chart. Not as a joke, but as a real role, with defined responsibilities and a clear place in the workflow. I laughed at first, but the more I sat with it, the more it felt like a reflection of what's already happening inside a lot of organizations, whether they've formally acknowledged it or not.

How it works

  • What started as a casual forum for sharing prompts has turned into something more practical: people showing how they're actually using AI inside real workflows.
  • One marketing producer set up an AI agent to automate competitive research that used to take hours.
  • By just providing start and end dates and describing the work to be done, it builds out all milestones and shares the timeline with the team for approval.
  • THURSD-AI At Quantious, we see this every week in our internal "Thursd-AI" sessions.
  • Individually, the gains are small, but collectively they've started to provide the team with more breathing room for creativity.
