As AI application starts to expand rapidly in it's uses and abilities, there is an understandable amount of scepticism and discussion about how it can negatively impact how our society develops.
On the flipside of this, I'd like to share a couple of AI tools which I've found incredibly useful. As someone with pretty severe executive disfunction, I've always dreamed about being able to have a personal assistant to help me out when I am struggling.
If you haven't already tried it out, take a look at goblin.tools
This AI tool helps me in so many ways. From finding the right words, assembling ingredients into a meal, checking how my tone comes across in a message, to breaking down overwhelming tasks into manageable steps.
I also really like mymind
It's like a pinterest board, bookmark manager and general braindump tool that has helped me organise all the different projects, ideas and general digital hoarding into one place - that I can actually search and find all the relevant things without agonising over file organisation and bookmark labelling.
If you have trouble with keeping a hundred pinned tabs on your browser like I do, this tool can actually really help letting go of the anxiety of losing those things without the fear you will never come back to it again.
As much as I share some of the trepidation about this powerful new tech and we should definitely keep questioning how it is being rolled out into every facet of our lives - it can also be a very real accessibility aid for neurodivergent folks.
No amount of notebooks, lists, alarms and calendar reminders comes close to how these have helped me with ADHD symptoms.
I'd hate for that to be overlooked in all the backlash against AI in general.
i was never supposed to be loved, and i have accepted the fact that i was no one’s favorite since childhood, but you came along and showed me what is it like to be wanted for the first time, what is it like to be heard and what is it like to be seen, altho it was for a little while, but at least now i can say i once was loved.
