1. Overview of Tools & Approach

  • AI Tools Categorized:
    • Chatbots: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude
    • Agents/Specialized Apps: Madness, Perplexity, Notebook LN, NAN, OpenAI Agents SDK
    • "Vibe Coding" Tools: Lovable, Vault (beginner), Replit, Firebase Studio (intermediate), Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code (advanced)
  • Note: Emphasis on core models, prompt engineering, and minimal need for code.

2. General Productivity

  • Take/upload photos for AI identification of objects (plants, food, products, etc.)
  • Troubleshoot devices or fix things via picture uploads.
  • Upload manuals for step-by-step AI guidance.
  • Targeted, context-specific searches (e.g., where to invest as a Canadian abroad).
  • Quickly research latest AI tools or business strategies.
  • Plan complex travel itineraries and day trips.
  • Structured frameworks for idea evaluation (Eisenhower Matrix, Alex Hormozi's frameworks, first principles).
  • Summarize lectures/presentations from photos or video.
  • Transcribe and summarize YouTube or any videos.
  • Get personalized product suggestions and purchase recommendations.
  • Deep-dive research on career paths, e.g., AI jobs not requiring code.
  • Compare global concepts (Eastern vs. Western medicine).
  • Curate, compare, and summarize news from multiple sources.

3. Work Productivity

  • Organize and prioritize to-do lists via AI from brainstorms/ideas.
  • Switch tasks efficiently by bookmarking and summarizing work sessions.
  • Summarize meetings, emails, and draft/edit reports and communication.
  • Edit written material for grammar, clarity, tone adjustment.
  • Structured, deep brainstorming (answer leveling for more creative/specific ideas).
  • Use voice for brainstorming, negotiation, and roleplaying tough conversations.
  • Use AI for navigating complex software interfaces via screenshots or real-time streaming.
  • Translate content between languages in multiple formats.
  • Extract and summarize information from large PDFs/reports.
  • Create product requirement documents, presentations, and slides.
  • Analyze and organize resumes or messy notes; create neat tables or organized lists.
  • Consolidate and transform multi-format data (audio, video, text, etc.) with AI for easy analysis.
  • Export and visualize data (CSV, graphs, dashboards).
  • Document process and create technical/operational manuals.
  • Make digital clones for testing/interactions (with consent).
  • Build and deploy websites, calculators, and interactive tools for custom needs.
  • Bulk research and summarize topics via AI’s APIs; link to spreadsheets and other tools for workflow automation.
  • Emphasize the importance of prompt engineering; free resources available.

4. Advanced Use Cases (Coding & Automation)

  • Small automations (scrape YouTube comments, schedule cron jobs, Gmail scripts).
  • Automate personal tasks via custom-coded scripts/apps (Pomodoro timer, finance tracker, prompt database).
  • Quickly build client-facing demos and tools.
  • Build agentic workflows and end-to-end AI agents (for lead generation, customer service, reporting, security, etc.).
  • Use no-code (N) or code-based (OpenAI Agents SDK) solutions.
  • Opportunities for structured learning through bootcamps.

5. Day-to-Day Life

  • Outfit and meal suggestions based on photos of clothes or fridge contents.
  • Generate meal plans and shopping lists.
  • Get interior/design ideas (e.g., room decor).
  • Receive initial health guidance and recommendations for professional follow-up.
  • Optimize personal insurance plans and tax strategies.

6. Personal Finances

  • Get personalized saving and investment plans (using deep research tools).
  • Plan and analyze retirement fund strategies.
  • Build automated workflows for expense tracking via photoed receipts and messaging (WhatsApp).
  • Receive regular (daily, weekly, monthly) expense reports and category breakdowns.
  • Automate and manage complex personal finances.

7. Learning & Education

  • AI as a 24/7 tutor for any subject.
  • Step-by-step worked examples for problem-solving.
  • Create comprehensive study plans, mnemonics, mock exams, and quizzes.
  • Use AI-driven Socratic learning methods.
  • Extract and compile book exercises/questions into workbooks.
  • Immersive language learning (custom podcasts, scripts, voice practice).
  • Generate Anki flashcards and convert notes to different learning modalities (video, audio, infographics).
  • Research and gather content into custom study plans.
  • Request creation of entire online courses on specific topics.

8. Career & Business

  • Develop targeted job search strategies.
  • Research and plan learning for high-demand skills.
  • Get AI reviews and critiques of resumes and portfolios.
  • Conduct mock interviews and get feedback.
  • Brainstorm ways to stand out in applications.
  • Candidate generation for hiring.
  • Create onboarding, project documentation, business plans, and policies.
