Rules are usually better when the decision is stable, explicit, and easy to test: required fields, date formats, thresholds, and permission checks. AI helps when inputs are unstructured, language-heavy, or variable: classifying feedback, extracting themes, drafting explanations, or routing messy documents.

A strong workflow often combines both. Rules validate inputs and enforce policy; AI produces a suggestion; a human handles high-risk or low-confidence cases.

Where have you found the boundary between deterministic rules and AI most useful?
