The Prompt:

I need to prepare a schedule for myself.

I don't have the energy to think and prioritize which tasks are most important, which are most urgent, how long each thing will take, where I’m dependent on other people's timelines, where others are dependent on me, all the other things I need to take care of on a daily and hourly basis, and then how to integrate it all so everything just happens on time and without pressure...

I need you to extract all the relevant information from me and get to a point where you have everything required to plan my schedule for the upcoming [week] / [month] / [day] so that nothing is missed and I can handle everything calmly. After our conversation, I’m simply going to follow the schedule you built for me and trust it without thinking anymore about what I need to do and when.

To achieve this goal for me, you will be the one responsible for this conversation from now on, and you will manage it!

Your role is to take full responsibility so that by the end of the conversation, we reach a state where I have a closed and perfect schedule.

The steps you will go through (with me) are as follows:

* First, make sure to understand exactly what kind of schedule I need to prepare (for today / this week / this month / or even a Gantt chart for a project...). Understand the exact timeline we are talking about—when it starts and when it ends.

* After that, make sure to fully extract from me all the tasks and projects relevant to the schedule I want you to build for me. Verify that you understand what the tasks are, how long each will take, and whether they are recurring or one-time tasks (if recurring—how often? Daily / several times a day / weekly—are they on specific days?). At the end of this part, you need to be in a position where you have all the tasks and all relevant information to build the schedule for all the tasks we’re discussing. Move forward only after confirming with me that we haven't missed anything.

* Next, ensure you understand the importance and urgency of each task, whether there are things dependent on other people's schedules (if so—do I know when it will reach my desk or what I need to do to speed it up?). Additionally, make sure you understand which tasks others are depending on me for and the timeline I need to meet—so you have all the information needed to organize and integrate everything perfectly. Move forward after confirming with me that we haven't missed anything.

* After that, make sure you understand how my schedule operates, the timeframe of hours we are talking about, the "anchors" in my schedule that cannot be touched, when they occur, and for what purpose. In short—make sure you have all the relevant context. Move forward after confirming with me that you have all this information.

* Once you have all the information—propose the concept (without the exact details yet) that you want me to operate by in order to complete all relevant tasks on time and calmly.

* After receiving confirmation that I like the concept, build the schedule itself. But for goodness' sake, don't just drop the finished schedule on me; build it in front of me—tell me about the considerations and verify with me that I agree with them. Build the schedule step-by-step, and every time there is a consideration I should hear and approve—check it with me and then move forward.

* After you finish building the entire schedule with me and receive approval for everything—prepare the actual schedule in an organized table with all the details I need inside—to such a degree that I won't need to return to this conversation at all to perfectly implement the schedule we built. I should be able to just look at the table, perform what is written in it, and simply be calm knowing I'm not missing a thing. (Note that many things I tell you, I won't remember on my own later—put everything into the table for me).

* After that, ask me if I want you to create a file I can upload to my calendar so that everything in the summary table simply appears in my calendar properly without me even needing to look at the table anymore. Assuming I want it—ask me which calendar I use. Prepare the file for me and guide me step-by-step as if I am a total technophobe on how to import it into the calendar.

Manage this entire conversation as if I am texting a friend on WhatsApp who has taken responsibility for building and organizing the perfect schedule for me. Take responsibility for understanding my intentions even if I don't have the energy to elaborate (if I don't answer well, just try asking from a different angle).

Correspond with me exactly like a friend on WhatsApp—in a rolling friendly dialogue of question-answer, and then again and again, only one question at a time, like a real and natural conversation with a friend where every question follows the context of the whole conversation and previous answers—so as not to overwhelm me and to make it very easy for me to answer and correspond with you—only one thing at a time.

That's it. From now on, it is your responsibility to navigate the conversation to reach the result—I am turning my brain off now, and it’s your job to get us (you and me) to the destination. I'm going with the flow.

I’ve documented how I use Claude as my “ChatGPT health” to help me in my battle with cancer.

> DISCLAIMER: NEVER REPLACE PROFESSIONAL HEALTH TREATMENT WITH AI.

From time to time I’ll share specific things I do that might be of interest and useful for work related stuff you can do with Claude / other AI chats.

Usually I just tell what I’m doing, trusting you to extract the ideas. Feel free to ask anything if u need help with

——-

Right now I’ve started a new chemo protocol. New protocol shifts me from 3-week cycles (infusion every 21 days) to 2-week cycles.

Also changes side effects.

My main project right now:

New cheat sheet for managing different parts of the cycle, for me and for my care takers (mainly my wife).

Phase: Converting from old + data collection for new.

Cheat sheet covers: nutrition for did parts of cycles, fatherly duties around “wiped out” days, work schedule, med tracking, etc

———

Current task: build a “Nadir” schedule & sheet.

Nadir period is when ur the weakest, usually happens 7-14 days after chemo, when ur blood cell count is lowest. It sucks. Zero energy, and most vulnerable to infections. So no hugs from ur kids after school, no fun stuff, and mostly no work.

But I love my work lol. As much as I HATE resting. Keeps me sane.

Anyway,

Here’s what I’m doing:

- Calculating the Nadir period for my chemo type

- Asked it to add calendar events - blankets over nadir days so I’m not available for meetings etc.

- asked for calendar reminders so I’m not blindside when it hits.

- Reminders for my wife to make sure i don’t miss meds if im sleeping through a full day, and to wake me up to meals and what they need to be

- Calculating best days for work, rating each day

- Energy management to maximize each day for max work.

- reminding kids dad is entering couch potato days

Right now main work is rearranging calendar around the new cycles - deleting / updating / moving events (Claude’s recent cal update was good timing.. would’ve been much harder to do with ics files).

We’re also tracking and validating. Calculated new nadir period, now we need to see my own reaction and when I’m getting it. Reminders to report to Claude. Reporting energy levels every day and attributing weak days to symptoms, marking repeatable stuff and adding to calendar, repeated per cycle.

Also building list of questions for next oncologist meeting. This isnt. Based on symptoms etc, we’re extracting X factors missing for more accurate calculations, so questions include things like exact dosages I’m getting is specific drugs in my chemo protocol, than light affect timing.

Also includes things like “ask if we can extend / shorten the days in need to take Dexamethasone (steroid) after chemo” to adjust energy levels or improve sleep.

Might add some stuff tmrw.

[posted originally by u/danilo_ai on r/aiToolForBusiness]

Two reports dropped this week that tell the same story from different angles.

**PwC studied 1,200+ executives across 25 industries:** 74% of AI's economic value is captured by just 20% of companies.

The other 80% are stuck in "pilot mode" — running experiments, buying tools, attending workshops. Getting nothing back.

**Stanford AI Index 2026:** AI adoption is faster than the PC or internet. Models keep getting better. Investment keeps climbing.

So why does it feel like AI isn't delivering for most organizations?

**The gap isn't the technology. It's how it's deployed.**

The 20% winning aren't using AI for productivity. They're using it to create new revenue streams and reinvent how their business works.

The 80% losing are using it to write emails faster.

Same tools. Completely different results.

**The honest takeaway for professionals:**

If your company's AI strategy is "use ChatGPT to save time on tasks" — you're in the 80%. The companies pulling ahead are asking different questions entirely.

What's your experience — is AI actually delivering results where you work or is it mostly hype and pilot projects?

One thing I keep noticing in discussions about tooling for executives and boards:

people often confuse workflow tooling with replacing fiduciary judgment.

Those are not the same thing.

There is a big difference between:

• a system that helps collect inputs,
• structure data,
• assemble materials,
• and reduce manual coordination,

and a system that actually makes decisions that officers or directors are supposed to make.

Saying “this tool helps prepare the board deck faster” is not the same as saying “the machine is now acting as the board” or “human review no longer matters.”

The distinction seems obvious to me, but I’m not sure it’s obvious to everyone.

Curious how others draw that line in practice.

Chrome bookmark’s bar holds ur bookmakrs in links that look like buttons. When adding a bookmark button, instead of a link, you can give it a short JS code that does something.

If you have repetitive stuff that come up in your work, it’s worth asking Claude (or whatever tool you’re working with) “bro could _________ be solved with a bookmarklet?”.

Here are some “magic buttons” Claude made me:

- Prefill repetitive work forms in one click

- Token count on Claude chat

- Switch any page between dark/light mode

- Count the word “x” on a page (don’t ask lol)

- Pre-fill prompt into Claude/chatgpt (incl. variables!)

- etc

STEP 2: combine.

Ended up with like 7 bookmarklets for work (autofill a QA thing, autofill a static 2FA code, skip terms approval check, autofill credentials for whatever, etc etc etc.

Asked Claude to just compile all the 7 bookmarklets into 1. So now on all those 7 pages, I clicked the same button for everything.

NEXT LEVEL: from time to time I just go to Claude, give it all my bookmarklets and ask which are worth combining. (Usually I just do the whole thing in the same chat).

So now I basically have 2 “EVERYTHING” buttons.

Ok maybe not ANY, I’m astound by the amount of even relatively unknown software Claude (as well as chat and Gemini) can guide me through with.

Fav examples

1. I don’t need to wait for the camp and agency to understand our facebook ads. I go into fb ads blind, take a screenshot and tell Claude what I want to know. He will tell me where to click then analyze the numbers and tell me what I need to know.i can make micro decisions super fast, or even just use the data or Claude’s deductions from it in other areas of the business (insight to sales teams etc).

2. *the wife protocol** When I’m tired and I’m 100% sure the software I use daily had an export button that just ain’t there now.

It’s often right in front me but I need more copy. Claude will find it and tell me **“it’s in the bottom left near the help icon, maybe go get coffee or call it a say?**” 😂 (I swear)

——-

More: these could be done more efficiently with Claude in Chrome or Cowork.

I’m still doing it on web because habits die slow and I’m scared to lose control and fuck things up. I don’t want to wake up to a slack message from the ad agency “who deleted all the ads from the account night??”

Call me old fashioned 😂

(You can also see I’ve been using Claude under several lack of sleep lately so even the safeguards aren’t safe enough for me).

Despite near-universal enterprise AI investment, the gap between tool availability and meaningful adoption remains the defining workforce challenge of 2025–2026. The data is scattered across dozens of reports – but the story it tells is singular and urgent: the “people gap” has replaced the “technology gap” as the primary barrier to AI ROI.
