AI automation is software that carries a piece of work from trigger to done, with a model handling the judgment steps. The definition, its boundaries, and examples.

Private LLMs are practical now. What a self-hosted model can and cannot do, what the hardware really costs, and when the API is still the right call.

The tool list is the easy part. Why a stack of AI automation tools doesn't automate anything by itself, and what turns tools into work that runs.
