    The Secret to AI productivity? Stop using just one tool.

    Think ChatGPT is the only AI tool you need? Think again. In this episode, we dive into why relying on just one AI tool is holding you back—and how a stacked AI system can dramatically boost your productivity.  Inventium’s resident AI expert, Neo Aplin, joins Dr. Amantha Imber to break down:  Why AI stacking is a game-changer – The biggest mistake people make when using AI? Thinking one tool can do it all. We break down how combining different AI models can give you better, faster, and more accurate results.  The right tool for the right job – ChatGPT is great, but what if there’s a tool that can summarise long documents twice as fast or generate images way more realistically? We explore the strengths and weaknesses of top AI tools and when to use each one.  How to build your AI workflow – Whether you're an entrepreneur, creator, or business professional, we share a simple system for integrating multiple AI tools into your daily workflow. More efficiency, less frustration.  AI tool recommendations – Get our curated list of must-use AI tools that complement ChatGPT and take your productivity to the next level.  If you’re serious about making AI work for you, stop thinking small—start stacking.    Want to master AI productivity?

    Quick Win: The daily ritual that helped Lisa Leong to find peace of mind

    Lisa Leong doesn’t do things by halves - if she’s worried she might not be getting enough sunlight in the dead of Melbourne winter, she goes out and buys an infrared desk light. If she learns cold therapy might be beneficial, she jumps into a sub-zero cryotherapy chamber.  So when the ABC Broadcaster started feeling a disconnect between her mind and body, she didn’t just start practicing Qigong (a meditative martial arts practice similar to Tai Chi). No, she wanted to learn it from the master himself, Robert Peng.  She thought she might be in luck, because the Chinese healer was brought to Australia by… Bob Hawke? But by the time Lisa wanted to learn, Peng had moved to New York. So naturally, Lisa flew across the world to spend ten days under his tutelage!  Lisa shares why she felt compelled to learn Qigong, what she learned from Robert Peng, and how Bob Hawke fits into the story!
