Book Description
When you need your AI-enabled work to be right, Tempered shows you how.
This week you probably read a page that nobody checked. You may even have been the one who approved it. It read well and that’s exactly the problem.
AI can produce a confident, well-written document about something it doesn’t understand, complete with hallucinated facts and fake citations that look perfectly real. The mistakes look like good work. Lawyers have been sanctioned in court for filing cases that never existed — the citations were formatted beautifully.
You’re going to keep using AI. In business, everyone is. The question is how you stand behind work you didn’t write on your own.
Tempered is a practical method for anyone whose name goes on the result: leaders, lawyers, accountants, consultants, auditors and managers. Adam Green spent twenty-five years leading work across regulation, risk, law and technology, in roles where one named person carries the can. He’s worked with AI tools since the 1990s. This is what he does before he signs.
You’ll learn how to:
- spot the seven ways AI-assisted work goes wrong, most of which leave no trace on the page
- get a second opinion that’s genuinely independent, instead of the same model agreeing with itself
- put your checking where being wrong would actually cost you, and stop wasting effort everywhere else
- build an audit trail that’s quick to keep and worth having, so you can explain the work to a client, a regulator or a court
- say plainly that you used AI, with confidence rather than apology
The method is shown running on the jobs you actually do — writing something difficult, reviewing a contract, summarising a pile of documents — and every chapter ends with a one-page version for your desk.
Most AI governance and compliance advice is written for a policy shelf. Tempered is written for a Friday afternoon, on deadline, with your name about to go on something.
Tempered was written using its own method. Reading the book you can confirm for yourself the method is a good one.
Use AI at full speed.
Deliver the quality you need.
Put your name on the result.
Know exactly what you’re standing behind.
