Podcast: The whip-cracking cheerleader

Join me for this episode as I share the AI tech stack that I use to write my book, “Achieve More with Less - How to Use AI to Reduce Friction in Business.” I share how leveraging AI tools has transformed my writing process, giving me superpowers rather than taking over the actual writing. I use a combination of off-the-shelf and custom-created tools to access research assistants, world-class editors, and data analysts, all working together to reduce friction in creating my book. I use Notion for its versatile data management capabilities, even though I skip its AI features. Learn about my walks with OpenAI’s ChatGPT for brainstorming and structuring ideas, and how a custom GPT editor enhances my drafts to ensure clarity, engagement, and coherence. I’ll also share practical tips on how to make the most of these tools without sacrificing originality and quality. This is a public episode.
