Conclusion
That’s a wrap. Before we close this out, we want to thank you for reading this book and making sure that AI becomes a part of your personal and professional life. You now possess the skills and abilities of using such tools to your advantage.
Recap of Key Strategies and Tools
So let’s provide you with a recap of key strategies and tools that you can use to your advantage. With AI, there are plenty of things you can get it to do. This includes the following activities along with the appropriate tools to get the job done:
Virtual assistants: This uses some kind of AI technology to create reminders with the power of your voice. You can also make various requests such as news reports, weather, traffic information, and more. This can be used for your most basic skills and requests.
Time management: Scheduling appointments and meetings has never been easier. You can use AI prompts to schedule the days and times so you can be able to get there on time, every time. Even better, you won’t have to be late for any appointments (barring anything popping out of nowhere that may cause you to reschedule). If you need to reschedule, AI can do it for you too. Google Calendars with AI and similar apps can be worth the use.
Task management: Using AI, this can be done in two different approaches. One, you plan and prioritize the tasks you want to do. Two, if you have a bit much on your plate, you can always use AI tools to delegate those tasks to someone you know can get the job done. Using tools such as Slack or Teams might best suit you for those purposes.
Effective communication: This can be done by typing up a prompt to churn out a quick email. Or it can be done by the sound of your voice. Either way, make sure you and your team are able to communicate clearly and effectively with AI. Time may not be on your side, which makes us appreciate AI even more for putting together a quick email or message and sending it to one team member or the entire project team itself.
Project management: Of course, project management with the use of AI can make things easier. You can delegate tasks to people on your team. And you can program it based on different skill sets. This way, AI knows which tasks can go to whom. That alone can make projects go smoothly and with less setbacks. Asana and Monday.com are considered some of the best – even long before AI came in and made it a lot cooler.
Content creation and management: AI has the ability to create dozens of written and visual content in seconds. If that doesn't make its power impressive, we don’t know what will. Yet, you can utilize it to create content that may be focused on your audience. Or you can simply use it to create visually appealing images. Whether it’s for marketing or generating awareness, using AI tools like DALL-E or even Jasper can make sure you can churn out content for all your written and graphic needs.
Personal development: AI can make your personal life easier – including tracking your physical and mental health. If you want to make it easier to track your fitness and diet, there are plenty of apps that use AI so you can keep up with your goals. And it just might inspire you to keep going.

So what’s next? Your next steps in your AI productivity journey might not have been planned out yet. If that’s the case, let’s use this opportunity to help you draw out a map so you can get started. First, refer back to the first chapter and identify your productivity challenges.
Once you have a solid assessment of what they are, find AI apps that will help you conquer your productivity challenges. It will take time to overcome them since you’ll need to spend some time learning how to use the apps of your choice. The good news is that many of them are user-friendly and easy to use from the beginning.
Be sure to carefully check out each app and see if it meets any of your critical needs and preferences. Find one that will fit your budget – even if it is free to use.
