AI Advantage #8: Personal AI Automation
20 Oct
Written By Meg Smith
I love the quote “I don’t want AI to create art for me, I want it to do my laundry.”
In this eighth episode of the AI Advantage on the Microsoft Innovation Podcast Mark and I talked about the ways AI can help us personally with some of the tasks that take a long time. We shared some great ideas from our community as well.
We talk about:
- Spot hype and choose automations that save setup time.
- Use observation and RPA-style recording to find repeatable tasks.
- Build simple, personal apps for health and routines.
- Auto-schedule learning, news, and entertainment.
- Research niche purchases and compare options you might not have come across.
