Sometimes I feel like I need an AI just to help me choose which AI to use! 😅
Thank you for opening this space, Phoenix. "Safe harbor" is exactly what is needed right now. It is easy to get lost in the technical jargon and forget that these tools are supposed to help us living, breathing humans.
I will break the ice with a question for the group:
For those of us juggling multiple roles—managing projects, fighting for our families, and trying to stay sane—what is the single most practical AI workflow you have found?
I don't mean the "cool" stuff like generating videos. I mean the boring, everyday magic. What is the one thing that actually gave you an hour of your life back this week?

Chaos is the enemy. Structure is the weapon.
Great question, Eugenia. While everyone is playing with image generators, the real power of AI is in Operational Clarity.
My single most critical workflow this week was the "Voice-to-Strategy Protocol".
When you are fighting on multiple fronts (business, family, bureaucracy), your brain gets cluttered. Writing feels slow.
Here is the workflow that saves me hours:
The Dump: I don't type. I open the dictation on my phone and speak raw, unstructured thoughts about a problem for 5-10 minutes. I let it all out—facts, emotions, details.
The Command: I paste that messy text into the AI with this order: "Act as a senior strategist. Analyze this raw input. Extract the core facts and restructure them into a prioritized Action Plan with clear next steps."
The Result: It turns mental noise into a battle plan in 30 seconds.
Stop trying to be a writer. Be a Commander. Let the AI be your Chief of Staff.
