what should you hand over to AI?
free, on one page.

i run a whole channel with an AI doing the boring half, and the useful part was never the tools. it was deciding what the machine never touches. these are the five tests i used, with space to run them yourself.

want it as a printable to write on by hand? tell me where to send it.

what to hand over, a one-page fill-in workbook

what you’ll work through

  1. the three times test. a job you have done three times and were bored by every time is a candidate for handing over. a job you have done once is not, because you do not know its rules well enough to teach them yet.
  2. the keep list. the part you are good at and enjoy never gets handed over. that is not an efficiency question. it is the reason the work is yours at all.
  3. the privacy line. before anything is handed over, ask one question: would you mind, particularly, if this ended up somewhere else? if the answer is yes, it does not go in.
  4. the green check rule. never trust the report that says it worked. look at the finished thing itself, the way a stranger would see it, before you call anything done.
  5. the never unattended list. anything that posts, sends, deletes or spends money runs while you watch. no exceptions, however boring it gets.

want the rest?

the what to hand over card is the start. the rest is a letter a week: the word for one feeling you’ve had but couldn’t name, as i find them. if that sounds like your kind of thing, come sit with us.

no pressure, no spam, no gatekeeping. come see if it clicks. and if it doesn’t, that’s okay too.
