Here's my win: I caught myself about to spend 40 minutes formatting a spreadsheet and stopped. Asked Claude to do it. Took 3 minutes. That's not impressive. It's not a "10x productivity hack." It's just 37 minutes I got back because I noticed I was doing instead of thinking. The small wins are the ones that compound. The big flashy AI breakthroughs make great LinkedIn posts. But the actual quality-of-life improvement? It's the 50 tiny moments where you stop, redirect, and let the system handle what the system should handle. What's your smallest win this week? Don't overthink it. The more boring, the better.

I invited every one of you here for a reason. I know who you are. But you don't all know each other yet — and you should, because this room is full of people I think are worth knowing. So let's fix that. Drop a quick intro below: 1. Who you are and what you do 2. Where you're at with AI right now — haven't touched it, dabbling, using it daily, or somewhere in between 3. One thing you're curious about or hoping to figure out while you're here I'll jump in the comments and add context on why I invited each of you — because it wasn't random.

I want to try something with this community. I'm going to describe a real work scenario, and I want you to tell me how you'd categorize it. The scenario: Your boss asks you to create a presentation for the quarterly board meeting. The presentation needs to include: - Revenue numbers from last quarter (pulled from your internal finance system) - - A competitive analysis of 3 key competitors - - Strategic recommendations for next quarter - - An appendix with employee satisfaction survey results One task. Four very different components. Here's my take -- but I want to hear yours first: Some parts of this are clearly Green (let AI handle it). Some are probably Yellow (AI assists, you verify). And at least one might be Red (keep AI away entirely). How would you break this down? Which parts would you hand to AI, which would you verify carefully, and which would you keep AI away from entirely? And why? Drop your thinking below. There's no single right answer -- that's what makes this interesting. The way YOU think about it depends on your industry, your company, and your risk tolerance. I'll share my breakdown in the comments tomorrow.
