AI for Admins: What I keep Hearing, and an Invitation

I'm ​@TyBorrell the product manager for Jamf AI Assistant. My second week at Jamf, I was at JNUC in Denver, talking with admins about AI. I haven't stopped since: what they're trying, what's working, what they're quietly unsure about. Here's what I keep hearing, and then I'd like to ask you something.

At Jamf Nation Live London this year, 221 admins were asked what they need help with most, and AI integration topped the list at 84%. It came up across every career stage, from first-timers to people running teams.
 

What I keep hearing

Most of it comes back to a few questions:

  • How do I use AI to manage my fleet more intelligently?
  • How does it make me a more impactful contributor at my org?
  • How do I free up time for the parts of the job I actually want to do?

People are approaching AI every which way. Some have built plenty, some are just starting, and none of that is the point. If you'd like to work through it alongside other admins, there should be a place for that.
 

An invitation

I created a group on Jamf Nation called AI for Admins, a place to compare notes on working with AI in the job: using it yourself, automating with it, and the governance questions more of you are getting handed. It isn't limited to Jamf tools. Whatever you're running, whatever you're trying to figure out, it fits.

It's closed on purpose. Honest conversation about your own environment needs a room that feels safe. And I'm not there to pitch you. We're all still working this out, and I'd rather learn alongside you than pretend otherwise.

Before you go, I'd love to know in a comment: what's the one thing about AI you wish you had the time to sit down and figure out? I read everything, and you'll get a reply.

How can ai help me to learn things and get smarter instead of ai doing all  the stuff and I forget to learn things or don’t use my brain anymore.

I’d really like to find some time to play with the MCP hub. Still haven’t found the time yet. AI is so powerful and I’m sure I’m not using it to its full potential. 🤭

Effectively and efficiently integrating AI into our workflows.  Too many of our AI “researchers” are too busy tokenmaxxing to think in enterprise terms about where we can leverage AI to maximize our very limited engineering staff time (speaking as one of the limited engineering staff).  It would be really useful to “agentize” some of the requests we get from field staff.  Right now, we have to create ServiceNow forms and automations to work through the Jamf API to do the things that we want departmental staff to be able to do, but we don’t want them actually accessing Jamf Pro directly.

I want an Agentic agent that resides in my Jamf tenant and then put it behind an AI agent orchestration tool to do my bidding.

FWIW, I’ll say this:

Logistical dynamic scripts = the first AI.
