The original title is: "Python Automation Cookbook, Part 2: Using AI to make decisions in your automation pipelines"

Short summary

A practical guide to adding AI decision layers into Python automation pipelines, using deterministic scripts for I/O and small constrained LLM prompts for judgment calls. The author demonstrates a file-triage pipeline where an AI classifies files as PROCESS, REVIEW, or SKIP before routing. The pattern generalizes to log classification, data quality scoring, and customer message routing.
