The AI check-up

You use ChatGPT or Claude. But how much of it? Tap everything you've actually done at least once, and be honest, nobody's watching.

Asked it a question
Typed something, got an answer. The front door.
Pushed back on an answer
Said "shorter," "warmer," or "that's not what I meant" instead of accepting draft one.
Attached a file or photo
Used the paperclip: a PDF, a screenshot, a spreadsheet, a photo of a confusing letter.
Used voice mode
Talked to it out loud, like a phone call, and let it talk back.
Had it search the web
Asked about something recent and let it pull in current information.
Set custom instructions
Told it once, in settings, who you are and how you like answers. Every chat starts smarter.
Made a Project (or Gem)
A workspace with its own instructions and files, so one job never starts from zero.
Scheduled something
Set a task that runs on its own: a Monday morning briefing, a daily check-in.
Let it make something visual
An image, a simple chart, a little dashboard or document it built for you.
Connected it to your real things
Email, calendar, files. AI that can see your actual work, not just what you paste.
