AI isn’t here to do your job—it’s here to do the “busy work” so you can focus on the architecture. Whether you’re managing complex systems or drafting a quick update, these guides help you use AI as a high-level partner to get your time back.
⚡ Quick Win: The “Brain Dump” Prompt
Use this when you have the information but don’t have the time to polish the delivery:
Try this:
“I’m going to provide a messy brain dump of some notes/thoughts. Turn this into a clear, professional email with a logical subject line, bullet points for key actions, and a friendly closing.”
📸 Pro-Tip: Staring at a whiteboard or a handwritten project plan? Snap a photo of your notes and ask:
“Can you transcribe these notes into a structured project outline with clear headings and a timeline?”
