OpenAI Director Advocates Using AI to Increase Time Capacity

Tamara Scarlett Miller, a Go-to-Market Director at OpenAI, is advocating for a shift in how professionals perceive artificial intelligence, suggesting the technology should be used to increase time capacity rather than merely boosting output. Miller utilizes AI to automate administrative burdens, including summarizing calls, prioritizing emails, and preparing briefings.

Drawing on her experience as an enterprise leader and a caregiver for her children and mother, Miller argues that AI protects human judgment by removing procedural work. This automation allows professionals to focus on high-value skills such as strategic decision-making, storytelling, and emotional intelligence.

Miller suggests that the primary value of AI for working parents and caregivers is the ability to maintain career ambition while reclaiming time for personal presence and family. She views the technology as a tool for equality and time capacity rather than a simple productivity engine.
