1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,920
Speaker 1: We often talk about AI at work, but what about

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,399
Speaker 1: at home? From meal planning to laundry hacks to keeping

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 1: your kids entertained, AI can be so helpful in taking

4
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 1: the grind and the friction out of daily life and

5
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: also just making things a little bit more fun as well.

6
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: Today I am joined by Inventium's AI expert, Neo Applan,

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: and we are going to power through twenty five very

8
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: practical and some surprising ways that you can use AI to.

9
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 2: Improve your home life.

10
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 1: So whether you want to save time, solve tricky problems,

11
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: or spark some creativity with your kids, this episode is

12
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: packed with some hacks that you can try straight away.

13
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: Welcome to How I Work, a show about habits, rituals,

14
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 1: and strategies for optimizing your day. I'm your host, doctor

15
00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: Amantha Imber. Two years ago I completely overhauled How I

16
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: Work with Genai and I am now saving over forty

17
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: hours every single week. That is no exaggeration and that

18
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: is exactly why my company, Inventium, created the Genai Productivity Upgrade.

19
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: It's a twelve week course designed to move you from

20
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: Jenai dabbler to productivity machine. There is no fluff, just

21
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: practical strategies that will pay off from week one, saving

22
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: you at least ten hours every single week. We are

23
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: going to teach you how to automate the grant work,

24
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: use AI as your second brain to excel at your job.

25
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: Learn how to create AI agents that we knew back

26
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: hours every time you use them, and so much more so.

27
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: Whether you're a complete beginner or already using AI, we

28
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: have got you covered. We start with prompting fundamentals and

29
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: we go all the way through to advanced automations and

30
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: agentic AI. We kick off on October fifteen and spots

38
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: Today we are going to I was about to say delve,

39
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: but then it sounds like AI's written by script. We're

40
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: going to go into a whole bunch of different use

41
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: cases for how we can get AI to help in

42
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: our home lives. So we are going to rapid fire

43
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: through a bunch of some of our favorite ideas. Do

44
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: you want to start start us off?

45
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, food meals, shopping that's always a pain for people. Okay,

46
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 2: So the first one is you can use AI as

47
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 2: your fridge detective. So what I recommend is take photos

48
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 2: of your fridge and you can upload those photo. Obviously

49
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: with the fridge doors open, so we can see the food,

50
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: not that this is a fisher and pikele or whatever.

51
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 2: Take a photo of the food in your fridge while

52
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 2: you've got a full fridge. Now you might need to

53
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 2: take multiple photos so you can see of each of

54
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: the shelves there, and then'll give AI an indication of

55
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: the types of food you normally have. So it might be, oh,

56
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: I can see carrots, I can see lettuces in there,

57
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 2: I can see yoga, et cetera. It'll then give you

58
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 2: a baseline. Then when you've got a half empty fridge,

59
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: you can take a photo of that and then say

60
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 2: what am I missing? Compared that to the other one,

61
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 2: it builds your shopping list. Okay.

62
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: My one is building smart grocery lists where you can

63
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: think about what are all the meals that you are

64
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: planning to cook this week. I know in a lot

65
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: of households, you know, Monday might be I don't know,

66
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: chickennut Chuesday might be socco juice nut taco Chuesday. Yeah,

67
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: or we have taco Friday, which is obviously not alliteration,

68
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: but it works for us. Now, what you can do

69
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: with those weekly recipes is you can turn it into

70
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: an optimized shopping list where you chuck in all the

71
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: ingredients that you need and then AI can then group

72
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: it by aisle, which makes for a very quick supermarket shop.

73
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 2: It does need to know about your aisles in your supermarket.

74
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 2: You can always tell it that as well. Other ones

75
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 2: are budget friendly meals, so you can say, hey, look,

76
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: help me to do some meal prep. I want some

77
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 2: budget friendly meals under X number of dollars per night. Obviously,

78
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: be realistic with it, don't say it's a fifty cent meal.

79
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 2: But AI can then give you a whole bunch of

80
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 2: different recipe ideas. It's a great way to break out

81
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: of the recipe right as well.

82
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: Okay, next one is what to do with leftovers, particularly

83
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: if you've got, say, I don't know, some leftover bolinais

84
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: from making a lasagna the night before, and then you

85
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: can pop that into AI and ask for say three

86
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: creative ways to transform it into something new. And there's

87
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: a lot that you can do with bolin. AI's just fyi.

88
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 2: Another one is for those who have dietrees or maybe

89
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 2: you've got picky eaters in your family. So what you

90
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: can do is say, give us a base recipe and

91
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: then give me swaps for the dietaries or for the

92
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 2: picky things. And so you can then say, hey, look,

93
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 2: I've got someone with I don't know, gluten allergies or

94
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 2: an onion problem. How do I swap these kind of

95
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 2: things out? Or maybe someone who hates broccoli? How do

96
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 2: I swap these kind of things out?

97
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: Okay, that's definitely not me because I love broccoli. All right,

98
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: let's move on to next category. We've got a few

99
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 1: around home organization and chores. So one of my favorites

100
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: I love a good declutter. And if you are someone

101
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: that maybe resists decluttering but know that you have to,

102
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: what you can do is you can upload photos of

103
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: the messy spaces, maybe a picture of your wardrobe, and

104
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 1: then you can prompt the AI to give you a

105
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 1: step by step decluttering checklist, just to make the process

106
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: as easy and painless as possible.

107
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 2: Another one is, I don't know, we'll call it the

108
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 2: laundry whisperer. Years ago there was this wonderful lady on

109
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 2: ABC who could tell you any stain you had how

110
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,799
Speaker 2: to be able to get rid of that with things

111
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 2: like yogurt or lemon juice or these other things. Get

112
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 2: described the fabric, describe the stain, and then chech YOUPT

113
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 2: or the other AIS can give you stain removal instructions.

114
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: Okay, another one for cleaning when you've got guests coming over.

115
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: I just have this thing where I feel like everyone

116
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: else has a really clean house, because whenever you go

117
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: over to someone's house, it just looks all really organized,

118
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: and so I obviously feel pressure to do the same.

119
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: So what you can do is you can take a

120
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,799
Speaker 1: photo of the space that you are trying to clean

121
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: and ask the AI to generate a fast fifteen minute

122
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: cleanup routine before guests arrive, which you can obviously reuse

123
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: assuming that you're not moving house. But I think that

124
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: one is quite fun. Okay, let's move on to a

125
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: few around family and parenting and pets. Do you want

126
00:06:58,680 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: to start this one off new.

127
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 2: Bedtime story generation. If you've got children who want a

128
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 2: different bedtime story every night, it can be quite fatiguing

129
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: to come up with a new one every night. Now,

130
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 2: what you can do is give it a person, Give

131
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 2: AI your child's name, maybe even a pet's name, and

132
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 2: some details about them and the things they want and

133
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 2: they like, and then get AI to generate a story

134
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: for them. Bonus points. You can also say, in the

135
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 2: style of so it's great saying, in the style of

136
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 2: doctor Zeus, do these kind of things. It'll then give

137
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 2: you a great story in the style of starring your child,

138
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 2: which I love.

139
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 1: I love it for homework, Frankie. My daughter is eleven,

140
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: and the older she gets, the further she gets in school,

141
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: the more confused I sometimes feel about some of the

142
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: concepts that she has to learn about. And so AI

143
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: is great for just prompting it to explain this particular

144
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: concept that maybe neither of us understand in an age

145
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: appropriate friendly language. Very helpful for that when your kids

146
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 1: are coming home with concepts that are beyond you or

147
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: that you've completely erased from your memory.

148
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: A quiz machine. So if your child is maybe a

149
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 2: bit older than Frankie needs a bit of practice before

150
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 2: a test or an exam, give the AI what the

151
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 2: problems are and what the lessons need to be, and

152
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 2: it can then create a quiz with Q and as

153
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: for your child, so it's like quick fire questions those

154
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 2: kind of things.

155
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 1: And on that CHATBT has a learning mode as well.

156
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: Have you any advice for playing around with that.

157
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 2: I haven't played with that much myself at the moment,

158
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 2: but yeah, a lot of people. I've seen reviews on

159
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 2: it and people do love it, so yeah, jump in there,

160
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 2: have a go okay now.

161
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: Final one on the family front. If you have got

162
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: an ex that you are co parenting with, sometimes writing

163
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: notes email communication with them can be a bit tricky,

164
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: particularly if things are acrimonious. AI is really great for

165
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: toning down emails into more neutral kind of language. Okay,

166
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: let's move on to health and well being a couple

167
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: of things here. Maybe I'll start this one off because

168
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: I use this quite a bit. So I do weight

169
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 1: training four times a week, and I'm very literate in

170
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: exercise and exercise physiology. But something I like playing around

171
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: with is putting in a persona. So my favorite you

172
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: know well being or fitness person at the time. You know,

173
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: put in people like Andy Gaplan for example, who I

174
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: really love his advice around exercise. I know Stacy Simms

175
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 1: is particularly popular at the moment for women, and getting

176
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: the AI to take on that persona and then I

177
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: describe me like my age, my goals, etc. And ask

178
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: them to write me like a weights program or a

179
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: fitness or an exercise program in that persona. I think

180
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: that is really cool and I've generated pretty cool exercise plans.

181
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: It is also really good for generating workouts. If you're

182
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: trying to work out at home, maybe you've got no equipment,

183
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 1: or maybe you've got minimal equipment, taking a photo of

184
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: that and asking it to create a program that you

185
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: can do with the equipment or lack thereof that you have.

186
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: It's a great one for that. The other one people

187
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: do for health and fitness is meal macros and things

188
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 2: like that. So you can take a photo of a

189
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 2: meal even if you're out, and say, tell me about

190
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 2: the macros in this photo, and it's very good at

191
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 2: that actually, so you can analyze any food that you've got.

192
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 2: And also if you're with a back to the recipe idea.

193
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 2: You can say, here's the macros I want to hit.

194
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 2: Give me some recipes with those macros. So awesome for

195
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 2: meal logging and meal creation.

196
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: Okay, a few ideas around, just like social life, so one,

197
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: if you are planning a party or a gathering. AI

198
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: is really great for coming up with creative solutions to

199
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: the theme, menu, decorations, a theme appropriate playlist, very helpful

200
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: for that.

201
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 2: Gifts tell it more about the person, of course, but

202
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 2: say here's the person, here's what they're into, here's the

203
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 2: budget I've got, and give me some ideas for gifts,

204
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 2: because I love gift giving. But man, it's hard coming

205
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 2: up with good gift ideas. So that's a handy one there.

206
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people have probably used it

207
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: for travel planning already. But if you describe your situation,

208
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: who you're traveling with, the ages of those people, the hobbies,

209
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 1: the things that they're into, and obviously where you're going,

210
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: and how long you've got and what your budget is,

211
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: you can get a pretty decent itinerary, particularly using perplexity.

212
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: Here would recommend perplexity for that one.

213
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 2: Yep, give it the dates and all those kind of things.

214
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 2: It'll find out if there's events in the place at

215
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 2: that time as well. Here's one board game rules explainer

216
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 2: who loves reading those damn instructions for a board game.

217
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 2: Get AI to simplify and explain what the board game

218
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 2: rule are. Fewer arguments, everyone gets along and it summarizes

219
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 2: it easier for a lot of people.

220
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: Okay, let's talk about admin and just like everyday productivity,

221
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: AI really good as a household budget assistant. So if

222
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: you are trying to stick to a weekly budget or plan,

223
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: really easy to either ask AI to ask you all

224
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: about your expenses, or you can upload things like photos

225
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: of bills or you know, other regular payments, maybe your

226
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 1: credit card statement. Obviously, make sure that you are not

227
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: sharing the information with the powers that be, so just

228
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: check your security controls on that one. But very helpful

229
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,559
Speaker 1: for you know, putting together a good budget.

230
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 2: Admin email drafter. We all need to create emails. Sometimes

231
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 2: they're a bit annoying or tricky to put together a

232
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 2: one that's polite but firm. So it might be to

233
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 2: your landlord or to your real estate agent. Might be

234
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: be your school or neighbors about their dog is barking.

235
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 2: How do I politely them to tone it down, get

236
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 2: AI to write your polite but firm email, tell it

237
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,079
Speaker 2: the style and tone you want, and it will then

238
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:08,839
Speaker 2: take you a couple of dot points and flesh it

239
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 2: out for you nicely and polite.

240
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: I also find it's very good for just checking clauses

241
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: in contracts that you know you don't necessarily need to

242
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: pay a lawyer for. Like, let's just say you're getting

243
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: photography done at a big event, for example, you can

244
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: just run that contract through the AI and just ask

245
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: it to highlight any you know, watch out clauses or

246
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: things that maybe you might want to request a change of. Okay,

247
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: final category, just some additional everyday helpers. Really, so, I'm

248
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 1: sure we've all had products that have broken and we're wondering,

249
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: what does the warranty say? Is this covered under warranty?

250
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: And who knows? Because warranties normally really find print and

251
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 1: annoying to read. So upload a PDF or a manual

252
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: or the actual warranty sheet of paper into AIL and

253
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: just ask it what does that warranty actually say in

254
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: plain English?

255
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 2: And also put in you where you are, your location,

256
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 2: where you bought it, your jurisdiction, because that'll also be

257
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: able to tell you what your laws and rules say

258
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 2: about warranties as well. Another one is plant identification and

259
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 2: care tips. I'm terrible with plants. I keep on making

260
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: them brown, So take a photo of the plant. AI

261
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 2: will identify what kind of a plant it is, and

262
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 2: then ask it what's going wrong with this plant, and

263
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 2: then it'll tell you whether you're over wandering, underwatering, and

264
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 2: all those things.

265
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going to give the last two one. One

266
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: final one is a wardrobe stylist. So if you are

267
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 1: someone that just has decision fatigue when you are trying

268
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: to decide on what to wear, upload some photos of

269
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: the items of clothing in your wardrobe and ask it

270
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: to generate some fresh and interesting outfit combos for you.

271
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: Also good for packing lists as well. And one final one.

272
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure we've all had that situation where you cannot

273
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: find your keys or your phone, although Apple Watch does

274
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: help identify it with the sound or your passport or whatever. Chat,

275
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: GPT and the other ais are very useful for giving

276
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: a systematic sort of search plan for finding it. I

277
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: tried this the other day. It applies behavioral science and

278
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: it asks intelligent questions and gives good ideas. So I

279
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: do recommend that if you've lost something important so that

280
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: was a rapid fire through a bunch of home newscases,

281
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 1: hope that there was at least one thing in there

282
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 1: that maybe you haven't thought of and might want to

283
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: use today. I hope you have found at least one,

284
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: if not more AI hacks that you can apply today

285
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: to improve your home life. And hey, if you've enjoyed

286
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: this conversation, please share it with a friend or family

287
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: member who also might be interested in experimenting with AI

288
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: in their personal life. And if you're looking to take

289
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: your AI skills up to the next level. Inventium's GENAI
