AI Advisory

Today, I want to talk about something that quietly consumes an enormous amount of our time. Repetitive tasks. Not necessarily the big, complicated projects. I'm talking about the little things you do over and over again without even thinking about them. Opening the same websites. Copying information between applications. Renaming files. Checking accounts. Filling out forms. Organizing documents. U...

Today, we're talking about something that can put money back in your pocket without requiring you to earn another dollar. Negotiation. Most people negotiate far less often than they should. They accept their internet bill, insurance renewal, software subscription, contractor estimate, or supplier quote without questioning whether a better deal is available. Sometimes the price is fair. Sometimes i...

Today, I want to talk about one of the simplest ways AI can make you more effective almost immediately. Following up. Think about how many things in your life are currently waiting on somebody else. Maybe you emailed a contractor and never heard back. You submitted a reimbursement request and were told someone would get back to you. A friend said they would send you something. You contacted custom...

Today, I want to show you how to use AI for a problem that sounds boring but costs people an enormous amount of time and money. Missing requirements. Think about how many decisions you make that come with constraints. You are booking a flight, but it needs to arrive before a certain time. You are buying furniture, but it has to fit through a specific doorway. You are choosing a hotel, but you need...

The information almost always exists. You have the receipt, the emails, the photos, the technician invoice, the notes you scribbled after a phone call. What you do not have is a story. In this episode, David Peterson walks through how to turn a scattered mess of receipts, emails, screenshots and call notes into an organized AI evidence pack. You will get the exact prompts for building a chronologi...

Today I want to show you how to build something I think almost everyone should have: an AI Decision Journal. Most of us make hundreds of decisions every week. Some are insignificant. What should I eat tonight? Should I buy this? Should I cancel this subscription? Others matter considerably more. Should I take this job? Should I move? Should I spend three thousand dollars repairing my car or replac...

Most people plan forward — and then the deadline is three days away and everything is urgent. This episode shows you how to flip it: give AI the outcome, the deadline, your constraints, and your actual starting point, then make it work backward. You'll get the exact prompts for building an AI Reverse Planner, from an international trip to a November 1 service launch to a government proposal, plus...

You're organizing a dinner. Some people reply in the group chat, others text you separately, and one person says "probably, let me check." Now you're scrolling back through messages, counting heads, and wondering whether you counted someone twice. The business version is a product catalog assembled from three suppliers, where one size says "L" and another says "Large." Today we build an AI data cl...

Think about the last time you asked people how something went. Maybe you organized a family outing. Maybe you delivered a project for a customer. You heard a few compliments, a detailed complaint, and several versions of "everything was fine." Then you had to decide what to change. Today, we're building an AI Feedback Analyzer: a simple way to organize what people tell you, check which problems ac...

Imagine you're dropping off laundry while traveling in Mexico. You want cold water, no dryer, and a price before you agree. You know a little Spanish, but you're worried about accidentally saying something different. Now imagine you run a small cleaning business. A potential customer messages you in Spanish. You can do the work, but you struggle to explain what your service includes. Both situatio...

You open the refrigerator, see ingredients everywhere, and decide there's nothing for dinner. Twenty minutes later, you're buying more groceries. Something similar happens in a small business. You have supplies, equipment, and a few available hours. But the next project still seems to require another purchase. Sometimes it does. Sometimes you haven't worked out what your existing resources can act...

You need to print a return label, but the printer refuses to cooperate. You restart it. You restart your laptop. You search for an answer, open six tabs, and somehow end up considering a new printer. Now picture the business version. A potential customer says your booking button doesn't work. You change the button text, check your calendar, and wonder whether your entire website needs rebuilding....

Somewhere in your home, there's probably something you meant to sell six months ago. A kitchen appliance. A spare monitor. That piece of exercise equipment currently holding laundry. You know it might be worth something. But selling it means identifying the model, figuring out a price, taking pictures, writing a description, and answering questions. So it stays where it is. Businesses have the sam...

Most people reach for AI only after they already understand the problem. But real problems arrive as a confusing charge, a vague customer complaint, or a missed deadline with three competing explanations. The hard part isn't solving the problem — it's figuring out what kind of problem you have, what information matters, and what to do first. That's triage, and it's one of the highest-leverage thin...

Suspicious messages are getting harder to spot — fake delivery texts, bank warnings, vendor emails announcing a new bank account. This episode shows you how to build an AI scam screen: a repeatable workflow that turns any AI chatbot into a structured suspicion engine. You will get the exact prompts to extract a sender's claims, pressure tactics, and identity gaps, generate competing explanations i...

Most people use AI to understand things. Far fewer use it to decide things. In this episode I show you how to stop rereading dense policies, contracts, and handbooks — and instead convert them into a working AI Decision Tree. We cover the personal version (airline baggage rules, warranties, benefits handbooks) and the small-business version (contracts, RFPs, vendor agreements, marketplace requirem...

Your landlord sends a renewed lease. A client returns your proposal with "a couple small edits." Your insurance carrier mails a renewal that looks identical to last year's. Most people skim, shrug, and sign — and the expensive changes are almost never the obvious ones. In this episode I show you how to build an AI Change Detector: give AI the old version and the new version, and instruct it not to...

Most people get mediocre results from AI for a reason that has nothing to do with the model: they ask AI to do the work before defining what the work actually is. This episode shows you how to build an AI Brief Generator — a planning layer between your messy thoughts and the final output. We walk a real personal example (buying a laptop, planning a family trip) and a small-business example (rebuil...

Most people use AI to help build a case for what they already want to do — and that is exactly backwards. In this episode, David Peterson walks through the AI Pre-Mortem: a ten-minute workflow where you tell AI to assume your plan has already failed, then work backward to find out why. Covers the personal version (interrogating a big purchase before you make it) and the founder version (stress-tes...

Today, I want to show you a simple AI workflow that can save you an enormous amount of time, both personally and professionally. And it addresses a problem almost everyone has: You have information scattered everywhere, but when you actually need something, you can't find it. Maybe it's a screenshot on your phone. Maybe it's a PDF buried in your downloads folder. Maybe it's a note you wrote six mo...

Your inbox is not a to-do list — it's raw material your brain has to re-sort every single day. In this episode I walk through the AI Action Queue: a simple workflow that takes a messy batch of messages and turns it into a prioritized list of concrete next actions. You'll get the exact prompts for the personal version (twenty emails, deadlines, urgency, next action) and the small-business version (...

Today, I want to tackle one of the least glamorous productivity problems that quietly costs people enormous amounts of time and opportunity. Following up. You have a conversation with someone, and they say they'll send you something. You say you'll get back to them. Someone asks you to check on something. A contractor gives you a quote. A potential customer says, "Reach out to me next week." A fri...
