I’ve found using AI tools strategically helps boost productivity. I use OpenAI Chat, Cursor, and Claude, each for specific purposes. Claude is great for coding without memory and serves as a nutrient-tracking diary, but I occasionally reset prompts to manage memory limitations. Cursor handles programming well but requires persistent, structured questioning. OpenAI Chat’s memory is a double-edged sword, useful yet needing occasional edits. Living in Poland, I rely on both Claude and OpenAI for translations, especially between English, Polish, and Ukrainian.

The humor comes when AI ‘misunderstands’—once, ChatGPT hilariously offered to vacuum a room instead of translating the words "Please vacuum the room”.
