The big idea
Some tasks AI agents save you 10 minutes. Others save 2 minutes. Some take MORE time than just doing it yourself. Tracking helps you pick the right tasks for AI.
Some examples
- Brainstorming party ideas: AI saves 15 minutes.
- Writing a 1-line text: AI takes longer than just typing.
- Researching for a project: AI saves 30+ minutes.
- Picking what shoes to buy: AI maybe saves 2 minutes — barely worth it.
Try it!
For one week, jot down: what task, did AI help, did it save time? Notice what patterns emerge.
