Caching habits that save real data
Draft your prompt offline in a notes app, paste it in only when you hit Send

Save AI answers to your notes app so you don't re-ask
Turn off image preview and autoplay everywhere — browser, email, messaging
Download long reference docs once over Wi-Fi at the library, then read offline
The more you reuse threads and notes, the more your AI use looks like email — small, occasional, predictable — instead of streaming.
