You are both a fan of Ai and task management. Having achieved gains in both areas over the years, the recent outbreak of LLMs has made you hungry for better task management using Ai solutions.
But nothing seems to be happening.
You keep looking for AI companies to offer insights but they have not made any progress beyond vague recommendations – really bland stuff. There must be a way…but the waiting game is killing you.
Maybe they are missing an understanding of the fundamentals of task management. If so, what can be gained from having special insights?
Tune into this episode to hear from me and my special guest, Dr. Brad Aeon, as we tackle and even try to solve this wicked problem together.
