Nowdays, evey few hours a new tool gets publihed and its really hard to keep up with all the new things coming out, my question is, do you stick with a stack of tools for a long term, or also adjusting to the new things coming out everyday?

Hi, I wanted to share the first automation I built with Claude Code and VS Code. After my parents’ heart surgery, the number of doctor appointments, medications, and admin tasks became overwhelming. I built this to help them stay organised. Have a look. The explanation is in the image below. Runs in real time/ cat personality language through Telegram. The bot works, but it’s been a real learning experience. It kept running into memory issues. I’d fix one thing, then another would appear. Recently, instead of patching problems one by one, I had Claude review the entire codebase and optimise it properly. It’s now a working project running through Claude Code, VS Code, and Railway. I’ve asked a few friends whether they’d find something like this useful, and the answer has always been yes. What I’ve realised, though, is that building and tailoring these kinds of automations takes a lot of time. My takeaway: the people who benefit most from custom AI systems will likely be businesses or clients with budgets that match the time it takes to build them. That said, I’m grateful to have learned the skills to build tools like this for myself and my family. #AISOS

Let's get to know each other! Comment below sharing where you are in the world, a career goal you have, and something you like to do for fun. 😊

The Answer is "No". Two types of people get stuck here: Haven't started Started, but don't know what's next If you're in group 1, here's the uncomfortable truth: you're already behind people who had the courage to just start. Stop waiting for permission. So what do you actually need to learn? Step 1: Pick one problem you want to solve for businesses. This is the biggest decision in this entire journey. Get specific, don't try to serve everyone. Step 2: Once you've picked your niche and solution, go to YouTube. Hundreds of tutorials teach the exact skill you need. Here's where most people do a common mistake: they watch video after video and never build anything. Stuck in a loop, no real progress. Fix: Build alongside every tutorial. Don't just watch. Replicate what they're making, line by line. On Al tools specifically: The internet will pressure you to learn every new tool that drops. Don't. Before learning any tool, ask one question to yourself: "Will this add real value to what I'm building?" Yes → learn it. No → skip it, move on. That's it. Pick a niche. Build while you learn. Filter every tool through value, not hype.

Lately I’ve been tempted to automate almost every part of my life and business — inbox, calendar, content, lead follow-up, even home routines. The problem: the more I learn, the harder it is to decide where to start without turning it into another giant project I never finish. Instead of just “automate everything,” I’m trying to focus on a handful of high-leverage areas and build from there. Curious how you’re all approaching this: - What’s the first thing you automated that actually changed your day-to-day (not just felt cool)? - If you had to pick only 2–3 workflows to automate in your life/business right now, what would they be and why? - Any rules you use to decide: “this gets an AI agent” vs “this stays manual for now”? If you’re open to it, drop: 1. Your niche / situation 2. The one automation that’s made the biggest difference 3. The next automation you’re excited to build Hoping this thread becomes a mini playbook for prioritizing—so people scrolling don’t just see what’s possible, but what’s actually worth building first. I’ll share mine in the comments once a few of you do the same so we can compare notes and steal from each other.
