I need to prepare a AI demo
My manager recently asked me to give a demo to the rest of the team on how I use AI in my day-to-day work. The reason is that my productivity is consistently good, I sometimes complete more work than my peers, and my AI token usage is noticeably higher than everyone else's. From management's perspective, they seem to think I'm doing something differently that could help the rest of the team.
The problem is that I don't feel like I have any secret workflow to demonstrate. We primarily use the Visual Studio Copilot plugin, and that's pretty much the extent of our AI tooling. I use it a lot throughout the day (for brainstorming, generating boilerplate, debugging, explaining code, refactoring, and writing tests) but it doesn't feel like I'm using hidden prompts or some advanced technique. It just feels like part of my normal development process.
I'm wondering if anyone else has been in a similar situation. Have you ever been asked to explain or teach your AI workflow when you didn't feel like there was anything particularly unique about it? If so, what did you focus on in the demo?
I also thought about creating some sort of standardized workflow or wrapper around AI usage, but I'm not convinced that's actually useful. Since Copilot already has access to the codebase inside Visual Studio code, it seems like most of the value comes from how you interact with it rather than from a predefined prompting framework. Am I overlooking something? What would you demonstrate if you were in my position?
