How I Turned ChatGPT Into My Personal Assistant
AI Edge. The title is louder than the content. Underneath it is a calm tour of using a long-running ChatGPT thread for meal planning, calendar/booking work, errand triage, and trip prep — exactly the unglamorous "life admin" jobs the article covers. The "external memory" idea at the end (a small Google Doc the assistant reads back into each session) is the practical fix for the most common beginner complaint: "it keeps forgetting what I told it last week."
AI Expert note
The title is louder than the content, as noted above — the calm workflow tour is the value, and the external-memory doc at the end is the one piece worth copying immediately.
