Time is our most precious resource, let's use AI to optimize it! In this episode of Tool Use, Mike Bird and Ty Fiero discuss the importance of time management and explore AI-powered tools that can help optimize productivity. They share their personal experiences with using AI tools to manage their time and highlight the benefits of such tools. Watch as Mike demonstrates an activity tracker that uses Whisper to recognize spoken activities and categorize them using an LLM. The tracker can also provide statistics on time spent on different activities and offer insights on how to optimize time management. Ty introduces Calvin, a CLI app that integrates with Google Calendar and can create, edit, and delete events. Calvin uses cloud-based apps behind the scenes and can be used to automate workflows. Joining the conversation is Orlando, co-founder of Toolhouse, who discusses his company's mission to give superpowers to LLMs. He demonstrates a tool that uses Toolhouse to extract information from a database using natural language queries. The conversation turns to the future of AI, including the potential for mixture of experts models and the importance of decentralization.
