I gave my AI access to my calendar, email, and project list. As a solopreneur (VerSquare.com and SearchAssistant.io), it's been transformational. I exclusively use Claude (desktop and Claude Code) because 1) it's awesome and 2) now that I'm set up, switching to anything else would take a ton of time. I have a fitness coach version that knows my injuries and goals. Another connects to my email, calendar, and task management tool. It has been so helpful in prioritizing what to work on, and many times it can even kick-start a lot of the work based on what it has access to. Kevin Weil, CPO at OpenAI, said "these are the worst AI models you'll have for the rest of your life." That blows my mind. Even now, it's hard to imagine what work will look like in just a few years as models and the ability to give context continue to improve. Curious what others are building. Any setups or tools that have been game-changers for how you work?

The AI tools have crossed some threshold in the last month or so where you can now treat Claude like an actual employee. Giving it tasks to complete and it just works. There is talk of this all over the AI space.

I have been using Claude to build a POC for a digital platform and brand guide, and have been incredibly impressed. Love that you can download the code behind it as well.
