Finding Your AI Sweet Spots

You've learned a lot of what AI can do. This course is about turning that into what you actually do — every day, without thinking about it. The difference between people who dabble with AI and people who get real leverage isn't knowledge. It's having a system.

Start by finding your sweet spots — the specific, recurring places in your work where AI reliably helps. Not "AI in general," but "for me, in this job, here's exactly where it pays off."

Map your week:

  1. List your recurring tasks — the things you do every day or week.
  2. Mark the AI-friendly ones — drafting, summarizing, formatting, brainstorming, explaining, planning. (The Augmentation course's sorting exercise is your starting map.)
  3. Note where AI already helped you during this track — the moments something clicked.

The overlap is your sweet-spot list: a handful of tasks where reaching for AI is now the obvious first move.

Why narrow beats broad: trying to use AI for everything is how people get overwhelmed and quit. Picking three or four high-return spots and making them automatic is how the habit sticks. Master a few, and the rest expands naturally over time.
