I would have to shut down my substack if it was true 🤣

I would love to team up with you and treat it like a thought experiment "how many AI Agents does it need to ruin your life?" hahaha...

Really like how you framed this, especially the shift from “use AI more” to making it the default response to friction. A lot of the habit stacks you mentioned are similar to what I’ve started building as well. Once you integrate it into your workflows like this, it stops being a separate tool and just becomes part of how you operate.

Indeed.

The major shift happens when you stop thinking “how i should be using ai more,” but it just happens naturally without noticing it.

What AI agent would you suggest for scraping subreddits (and other data)

I use Gumloop, but there are other tools like Make and n8n that most people also use.

Hi Wyndo,

Your post initially overwhelmed me! I found myself immediately researching APIs and ways to integrate AI tools into everything from emails to calendars. However, after reading the latter part of your article, I realized the importance of starting with "low-hanging fruit." I've begun by integrating AI for email summaries, focusing on cost-effectiveness since I'm not yet monetizing my content creation.

This post has truly been a wake-up call. I now understand that AI tools are not just motivators; they are powerful habit stackers. Thank you for this insightful realization!

Yes!

I think you totally nailed this :)

You dont have to overcomplicate things and start from easiest thing you can do right away and move up accordingly.

Glad you resonated with this!

Thank you for compiling this advice! All the common mistakes you introduced resonated with me and reminded me of why it’s been so hard to integrate the models into my life. I’ve been trying to become a better writer and communicator and this definitely gives me a better understanding of what I can do to introduce the models seamlessly into my life.

glad you find it useful :)

I used to overthink how I could integrate these models seamlessly on my workflow and life, but it just created analysis paralysis and ended up I didn't so much things.

But, by starting from low friction work, I can integrate it slowly and moving up as I have more understanding what I want. Massive game-changer!

This is spot-on. AI isn’t just a shiny tool we occasionally pick up, it’s a profound shift in how we structure our thinking and approach our daily challenges. In my experience, effective human-AI integration isn’t about using more tools, it’s about deeply embedding reflection, clarity, and intentional systems into our workflow. As I’ve explored, what we’re really experiencing isn’t replacement by AI, it’s a redefinition of meaning in our work and lives. Your Atomic Habits approach brilliantly captures how powerful it can be when we build AI into intentional routines rather than chasing novelty. Thank you for articulating this essential perspective so clearly.

"Since Claude already has access to my newsletter archive.." how do you do this?

Expand full comment
Wyndo's avatar

First, upload newsletter archive on GDocs and connect it through project knowledge so it can automatically sync. So Claude can read it and make connection with new data you feed them into.

It seems as if you are running and switching between AI tools more often. I am not sure if this can work for everyone, but good for you.

Wyndo's avatar

Yes since we are not yet arrive on one tool for everything. But, 70% of this workflow happens on Claude. So, it’s still fine with me with generally low tools switching.

It’s refreshing to see someone else approach AI like this. It’s the only way I know to make it fun and functional. Our point of difference is just tool selection. All else is the same. 😌

Thank you :)

After all, if you cant enjoy what you are doing, nothing will stick. Love that you have implemented it. Doesn’t matter the tools are as long as it solves the problem!

I have been using AI for brainstorming and to design curriculum to teach me how to do things, and just guiding me on how to automate more with AI, because you can tell it what you want and it will give you steps and tools that you can use to achieve the outcome.

I do find that I get overwhelmed with information, and I might spend too much time, fiddling with it, compared to being actually productive.

Or I overengineer, and I don’t use the workflows enough.
