5 Must-Haves for a Process Intelligence Solution Today

In today’s fast-moving business world, staying ahead means making sure your processes are running smoothly and efficiently. That’s where process intelligence comes in—but not all solutions are created equal. Some tools barely scratch the surface, while others unlock deep insights that drive real impact. So, how do you know if your process intelligence solution is actually doing its job?

Making Sense of Process and Task Mining

Many companies struggle with inefficient processes, not because they don’t have data, but because they don’t know how to use it effectively. Legacy tools often fall short, leaving businesses with gaps in understanding and limited ways to improve. The key is choosing a modern solution that goes beyond simple process mapping.

Here are the five must-have capabilities of a great process intelligence solution:

1. Process Discovery

A powerful tool should automatically uncover and visualize your workflows, helping you see exactly how things are getting done.

2. Process Analysis

It’s not just about knowing your processes—it’s about understanding them. The right tool should highlight inefficiencies and areas for improvement.

3. Process Monitoring

Real-time tracking keeps your operations on course and alerts you when things deviate from the plan.

4. Process Prediction

AI-powered insights should help you anticipate problems before they happen, so you can take proactive steps.

5. Process Simulation

What if you could test changes before making them? A strong solution lets you simulate process adjustments to see the impact before rolling them out.

If you’re evaluating process intelligence tools, make sure they deliver on these five fronts. Want to dive deeper? Check out this comprehensive buyer’s guide to see how modern solutions outperform traditional tools.

Odysseus: demanding Athena take off whatever enchantment she put on him the second the situation ends.

Odysseus: who constantly reminds Athena that he has great plans to grow old and die with his wife so don't even think about getting any ideas.

Odysseus: side eye diomedes who has started fucking glowing he has so many enchantments on him: bro you should talk to Athena about getting those removed. You're going to end up immortal or some shit

Diomedes: who has been a solider since he was 5 who has intersting thoughts about his own personhood who has a much more traditional relationship with Athena and would rather literally stab his own eye out with a rusted sword than speak out of turn: I don't know what you're talking about

It drives me crazy how people will label independent thinking dogs as slow or stubborn. It's a different flavour of intelligence, not less.

i think mikey is very empathetic but i think people oversell how perceptive and emotionally intelligent that makes him. he WILL start crying when you do (and it will usually comedically worsen the situation) but he's not going to tell that you're actually upset and feel bad unless you start crying, and when he starts actually developing the skill as he grows up it's gonna make him a feelings VULTURE. he'll act like a shark smelling blood in the water the second he notices

If you want to turn Mr Darcy into an evil villain in order to make a point about how Elizabeth was really the superior of the two then maybe, just maybe, you don't actually like or respect Elizabeth Bennet all that much.

I mean, why else would you actually want her to end up with an 'ugly, conceited, rude, humourless snob'? Do you underestimate her intelligence to the point of thinking she would willingly end up with a man like that? Do you not believe her to be capable of choosing a suitable husband? Did you even read the book... or are you actually just frustrated by the reaction to certain adaptations?

Because with this interpretation in mind, Elizabeth might as well have ended up with Mr Collins...

Listening to the Megillah during Purim this year had me wondering which member of the Magneto family would be tasked with reading it aloud. That led me to thinking about which of Erik's kids would know Hebrew and their level of observance.

Magneto wasn't present for their early lives and the families they were raised by may not have taught them Hebrew or given them a Jewish upbringing. For Wanda and Pietro I think they probably would not have learned until adulthood (if at all) since they were raised Romani. As for Lorna, she was raised by her biological mother Suzanna Dane who was American, though not much else is known about her. Neither Suzanna nor her husband Arnold are explicitly Jewish but Dane can be a Jewish last name. It's up to the headcanon then whether or not Lorna would have gone to Hebrew school, since I doubt Marvel would go out of their way to confirm or deny that two long-dead characters were Jewish. Even if they were, they would not necessarily have chosen to have her learn the language depending on the sect of Judaism and their level of observance. That's a long winded way of saying "Maybe but its impossible to know for sure" XD

Magneto himself would have had a traditional Orthodox Jewish upbringing, and as a result would be fluent in Hebrew. Perhaps his fluency would fade over time since I don't see him as being particularly active with the religion after childhood, and he likely would not have had the opportunity to engage with the language later in his life. He would only begin to engage with Judaism and hebrew again after prompting from his children as a bonding exercise. However, Wanda Pietro and Lorna would not necessarily be the ones to bridge that gap between themselves and their father, since their relationship with him is complicated. Of course I have to push my step-dad Erik agenda, so my personal headcanon is that David would be the one to arrange for them all to observe holidays together.

I think that David would be the most active Jew in the family, since Lorna and the others have a lot more complicated lives (to say the least, not that David's life isn't also super complicated). David craves family and is shown to be very attached to the tiny family he does have, which would extend to the House of M. He only had himself and his mother for most of his early life, with his adoptive father dying traumatically and Charles being absent. Given the opportunity to have three siblings and a more emotionally available father figure, I think that he would be enthusiastic about bringing them all together. He would also be fluent in Hebrew, since that would have been his first language, and Gabrielle would naturally have raised him Jewish.

That being said, I have the image in my mind of David reading the Megillah or him and Magneto reading the Megillah together. If Erik were to struggle with the Hebrew text, he would have a perfectly fluent son to assist him. Lorna, Wanda, and Pietro would listen with amusement and I love to imagine them all jeering and booing Haman while their father beams with pride. Just ugh. What a cute and heartwarming scene.

As for grandchildren, generally it skips a generation with unobservant parents having their passion rekindled by their children who feel strong a connection to Judaism. We already saw Billy having a Jewish wedding, so I feel like that is canon atp at least for him XD I think Billy and David would be the most observant out of the whole family. I don't have as strong of an impression on Tommy or Luna though

What better way could we teach our children the importance of learning to push forward despite failure than to openly embrace in the education system Trial and Learn as our truly only human learning process. In doing so, we eliminate the stigma of failure and view it as an important part of the process of learning.

Confessions of a Fanfic Writer: How and why I use AI 

So more and more, I’m seeing posts about AI and the place it has in writing. While some posts express justified concerns, the general discourse seems to be degenerating into “don’t use AI” and “if you use AI you’re a horrible person”, which suppresses conversation and doesn’t really explore the nuances of how AI can be used as a tool for writers.

I’m a fanfic writer who uses AI to help me write, especially when I’m in the throes of exhaustion or depression. I don’t always use it, and when I do, I’m aware it can become a crutch. But mostly it’s transformed my writing life, because it means I can write nearly every day now, instead of waiting for those rare moments each month when the sun comes up and I’m in a good place mentally and I’m able to write. 

So I thought I’d get specific and share some ways I use it. A couple of practical points first - 

AI is a broad term, and so when I talk about AI with regard to writing, I’m referring to a subcategory of AI called LLMs - large language models like chatGPT.

I don’t allow chatGPT to train on my fics. (There’s an option to not let it train its models on any data inputted). 

Ways I use AI to help me write 

One - to help me articulate my ideas

You know when you’re so tired and unable to express yourself properly, and you end up spewing a word cloud and gesturing inarticulately in the vague hope that the other person will understand what you’re trying to say? 

So with chatGPT I type that wordcloud in along with my half-baked ideas and unfinished sentences, and then it will make sense of what I’m trying to say and reflect back to me fully-formed ideas, giving me different suggestions for what I might mean. It’s the “make it exist first, you can make it good later” adage - chatGPT helps me to make my ideas exist first. 

Two -  for constructive criticism 

I might feel like a scene is sagging or that something’s not working but I’m unable to put my finger on it. So I’ll ask - “what’s not working?” and I’ve found it to be remarkably perceptive and accurate in identifying what and why something feels off - maybe it’s the beats and pacing, list-like repetition or lack of a character’s internal reaction.

(Could I just ask a beta-reader to do this? I could, but honestly - I’m an introvert and British. It’s just too awkward for me).

Three - as a sounding board 

If I’m stuck on a scene, it offers a fresh perspective by helping me figure out the motivations of the characters or identifying the emotional counterpoint of the scene and suggesting ways to build on it.

I sometimes ask it to rewrite the scene from the perspective of a different character, or to write the scene from a sensory point of view, just to help me experience it through fresh eyes. Other writers use it to make RPGs of their fics, for similar reasons. There’s also an audio option where it narrates what you’ve written -  the voice isn’t great but just hearing the words spoken aloud allows me to listen and visualise it and gives me a fresh perspective. 

Four - as a research tool 

I like doing research and making my fics as accurate as possible, but sometimes there’s no information available for my scenarios, e.g a character bleeding out in zero-G. So I type in the scenario into ChatGPT and receive information specific to my scene - for example, if my character is bleeding out in zero-G, is that even possible? How would it appear to an onlooker? Would the bleeding happen quicker or slower than in normal gravity? Would it still feel the same? (There’s always potential for the LLM to hallucinate though, so I wouldn’t trust it as the sole authority).

Five - for proof-reading and html code 

I can spend hours checking for typos, grammar and formatting errors, and it’s a lot quicker to ask chatGPT to clean it up for me initially and then to check it myself afterwards (or the other way round). It also speeds things up with writing html code for specific formatting. 

Six - as a writing therapist 

I have pretty low self-esteem and imposter syndrome etc. In the past I would either stop writing for a while - or worse, just delete my stories. 

Now when I feel like that, I tell ChatGPT and  then it responds by having a conversation based on therapeutic techniques such as externalisation (separating harmful thoughts from your identity), reframing techniques based on CBT etc. to explore with me what I’m feeling and to help me think differently about it. 

(Could I not just turn to actual humans for this? Yes, and occasionally I do. But I don’t want to pester my online fanfic friends with my writerly angst multiple times a day. It’s not fair on them, and they’re not counsellors. But with chatGPT I can be as honest and neurotic as I like). 

Conclusion

I guess I wanted to write this little essay because: 

it felt disingenuous not to speak up about my own use of AI when people were posting about it on Tumblr and elsewhere.

to maybe challenge the assumption that the use of AI in writing is automatically deviant, shameful or wrong. 

to hopefully be an approachable  person to chat to about the use of AI in fanfic. I’d love to find a friendly space in which to talk about how to use AI well in creating fanworks, and to discuss the angst, pitfalls and ethics that come with it. (Edit: I made a Tumblr community called Writing-with-AI, let me know if you’d like the link).

Anyway, if you’ve made it this far, thanks for reading and for keeping an open mind. I’m always happy to chat more - feel free to DM or leave me an ask.

Finally, you might be wondering whether I used AI to write this. What do you think?

Self-driving lab transforms electronic polymers discovery

Plastic that conducts electricity might sound impossible. But there is a special class of materials known as "electronic polymers" that combines the flexibility of plastic with the functionality of metal. This type of material opens the door for breakthroughs in wearable devices, printable electronics and advanced energy storage systems. Yet, making thin films from electronic polymers has always been a difficult task. It takes a lot of fine-tuning to achieve the right balance of physical and electronic properties. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have created an innovative solution to this challenge with artificial intelligence (AI). They used an AI-driven, automated materials laboratory, a tool called Polybot, to explore processing methods and produce high-quality films. Polybot is located at the Center for Nanoscale Materials, a DOE Office of Science user facility at Argonne.
