What using AI all day is doing to my life
The good and the ugly of life as a heavy AI user. I have never been more capable. I have also never felt so scattered.
TL;DR
- AI use has significantly expanded the author's capabilities, allowing for rapid project execution and idea generation, but also leading to an overwhelming backlog and shifting definitions of accomplishment.
- Delegating tasks to AI systems, while efficient, results in a mentally draining management role and a shift from deep focus to a more fragmented work style with interrupted thoughts.
- AI necessitates explicit articulation of expertise, forcing a deeper understanding of personal standards and decision-making processes.
- The constant possibility and ease of initiating tasks with AI blur work-life boundaries, making rest a challenge as the author feels perpetually 'switched on'.
- The author is consciously choosing which abilities to protect and which tasks to delegate, acknowledging both the benefits and drawbacks of heavy AI integration in their life.
