Today I made a list of 50 things I’ve used AI for.
Some were business things. Some were creative. And some were ridiculously simple, like making my cursor bigger and red, opening someone’s eyes in a photograph, figuring square footage from a floor plan, or placing furniture on one.
Then I had my list ready to print and wanted the type larger.
“Can I make it bigger before I print?”
Of course I could. CTRL-A. Change the font size. Done!
So, make that 51 things!
And I realized something.
These little helpful tricks are making me happy. Really happy. I’m saving time, learning things, creating things, and constantly finding myself saying, “Wow! Look what I can do!”
Maybe that is one of the unexpected gifts of AI for me. It gives my mind somewhere positive to go. Instead of focusing on something negative, I can focus on the next idea, the next project, the next silly little thing I want to figure out.
And apparently, I’m having a ball doing it.
51 and counting!
