Hello! 👋
I’m back after a longer break than expected.
The original plan was 2 weeks, but it turned into 4 weeks total. Reason: a back injury. 💀
I wasn’t able to sit comfortably or work properly, so I focused on the main stuff and put all the side gigs on hold.
I’m feeling a bit better now and hope to get back on track. 🤞
I don’t have a lot to share today, but I do have one question.
After a month off, I spent the weekend checking out tools, and all I see is 1000 new AI tools for everything. 100 of the same tools for design, coding, assistants, emails, etc.
So my question is this: are you more interested in AI tools that help with your daily work and personal tasks, or in a wider variety of tools? Like Chrome plugins, design tools, productivity tools, etc., that don’t involve AI in the first place.
Because nowadays everything I see is “AI-first tool,” even though some of them are very low quality.
I hope that makes sense, so I can better understand what readers like you prefer.
