AI Tricks To Simplify Your Daily Grind
Artificial intelligence offers fantastic ways to improve daily life, particularly by handling those repetitive tasks you'd rather avoid. This post outlines three helpful tips and tricks for using ChatGPT and similar AI models to streamline your routine.

Automate Your Meeting Notes
Constantly juggling meetings at work or school often means tedious note-taking. Fortunately, AI provides a way to capture all the important details without manually typing. You can fully engage in the discussion while an AI records, transcribes, and even summarizes the conversation for you.
Here’s a simple process using ChatGPT:
- Record your meeting using an app like Zoom or Voice Memos.
- Upload the audio file directly into a ChatGPT conversation.
- ChatGPT will then process it, providing a transcription, a summary, and can even draft a follow-up email if you need one.
Effortless Email Management with AI
In today's tech landscape (the article mentions 2025, reflecting its publishing context), AI is perfectly capable of handling your email correspondence. While dedicated tools like Serif, an email assistant BGR reviewed, can enhance your inbox management, many other AI solutions exist. Gmail’s AI assistant and Microsoft Copilot, for example, can draft, rewrite, and even automatically respond to emails using your preferred tone and style.
ChatGPT is another excellent option for email tasks, though it typically requires you to copy and paste the email content into the chat. Once provided, ChatGPT can assist with your emails in several ways:
- Compose responses tailored to your desired tone, whether professional, casual, or firm.
- Enhance the grammar, clarity, and persuasiveness of your messages.
- Translate or localize content if you're communicating across different languages (for instance, between English and Portuguese or Italian).
Transform Jumbled Thoughts into Clear Content
Even with helpful tools like Apple's recent shortcut for capturing ideas on the fly, organizing scattered thoughts from brainstorming sessions or interrupted tasks can be challenging. AI agents offer powerful solutions to bring order to this creative chaos.
For instance, you can feed ChatGPT your raw, unfiltered ideas—whether they're voice notes, bulleted lists, or incomplete sentences—and it can transform them into polished blog posts, engaging LinkedIn updates, catchy social media captions, and other forms of content.
The process is straightforward:
- Paste your rough notes or upload a voice memo containing your ideas.
- Instruct ChatGPT on the desired output (e.g., "Create a tweet thread about AI productivity from these notes").
- ChatGPT will then generate a refined, well-structured version of your content, often mimicking your preferred writing style.
Beyond These Tips: The Potential of AI
The three tips discussed here are just the beginning of how AI can simplify your life. Numerous other possibilities exist for you to explore. Consider any task you perform regularly; chances are, there's an AI tool available that can help you complete it more efficiently.
