James Long(@jlongster):key thing is to not go crazy with it just have it available, with access to email, calendar, etc over your primary chat interface (like imsg) when you have a need, try to use it, if it can't do it tell an agent to build out whatever is missing so it can do it you end up solving some of your main pain points only unique to you. for example I have a million tennis texts spread across threads and finally have a way for it to give me a summary on schedules and add to calendar I don't build anything else that I don't immediately need to do this you should build from scratch too btw, don't use something else. only works for tech people, but this is why the problem is so hard to build a product

I setup a “personal assistant” to help summarize all the things I needed to do the day. Day 1 was amazing, at least I thought From day 2 to day 10 ignored the whole thing lol Turns out I just don’t want to make a bunch of decisions, and an AI agent doesn’t change that. 👇
