Hey everyone, welcome to Data and AI with Mukundan,

00:00:13.550 --> 00:00:17.269
your go -to podcast for insights on AI and data.

00:00:18.269 --> 00:00:20.649
Today's episode is all about a game -changing

00:00:20.649 --> 00:00:23.769
AI tool that I've built which has helped improve

00:00:23.769 --> 00:00:27.210
my life by leaps and bounds. Now imagine having

00:00:27.210 --> 00:00:30.350
an AI that plans your schedule, optimizes your

00:00:30.350 --> 00:00:33.310
time, and makes sure you never miss a deadline.

00:00:34.009 --> 00:00:38.399
Sounds futuristic, right? Well... I built an

00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:41.399
AI life planner and today I'll show you how exactly

00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:44.740
it works, how it transformed my workflow and

00:00:44.740 --> 00:00:47.060
how you can create one as well. So let's dive

00:00:47.060 --> 00:00:52.179
in. So let's be honest, most of us struggle with

00:00:52.179 --> 00:00:55.079
time management. There's too many tasks, not

00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:58.259
enough time, constant distractions pulling us

00:00:58.259 --> 00:01:01.659
in different directions. I'm feeling busy but

00:01:01.659 --> 00:01:04.540
never actually productive and I used to live

00:01:04.540 --> 00:01:07.180
like this. My calendar was a mess, my to -do

00:01:07.180 --> 00:01:11.540
list felt endless, tasks kept coming, and I was

00:01:11.540 --> 00:01:14.760
always scrambling to stay on top of things. And

00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:16.900
that's when I thought, what if AI could help?

00:01:17.299 --> 00:01:20.239
What if I could build a system that not only

00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:24.000
scheduled my day, but optimized it based on how

00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:29.920
I work best? So what exactly is an AI life planner?

00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:33.760
It's a system that analyzes your daily habits,

00:01:34.430 --> 00:01:38.049
schedule starts based on priorities, syncs with

00:01:38.049 --> 00:01:41.489
Google Calendar for seamless planning, sends

00:01:41.489 --> 00:01:45.450
reminders, and adjusts in real time. Now it's

00:01:45.450 --> 00:01:48.349
like having a personal AI assistant that understands

00:01:48.349 --> 00:01:51.530
how you work best and creates a schedule that

00:01:51.530 --> 00:01:55.370
is tailored to you. Now let's talk about how

00:01:55.370 --> 00:01:58.409
I built this. Basically the tech stack I used

00:01:58.409 --> 00:02:01.870
was, I used GPT -4 to generate smart scheduling

00:02:01.870 --> 00:02:06.920
recommendations. um i integrated google calendar

00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:11.840
api to sync tasks and events i also integrated

00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:18.460
slack api to send reminders and finally i just

00:02:18.460 --> 00:02:21.400
built a simple front end using streamlit so this

00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.919
is like a python based library for a more clean

00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:28.280
ui so what happens at the end of it it's a schedule

00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:31.180
that runs by itself i don't waste time figuring

00:02:31.180 --> 00:02:34.159
out what to do next the ai handles it for me

00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:37.240
oh and not to forget i also built a pomodoro

00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.580
based timer so that helps like to set a 25 minute

00:02:40.580 --> 00:02:43.379
timer or how much ever time that you want to

00:02:43.379 --> 00:02:46.800
set for me 25 minutes the standard pomodoro timer

00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:52.460
worked for me so it um starts by its starts and

00:02:52.460 --> 00:02:55.659
then everything is blocked and you see like a

00:02:55.659 --> 00:02:58.099
timer live in front of you and at the end of

00:02:58.099 --> 00:03:00.719
that timer you can stop working but like you

00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:05.110
do like a dedicated focus time block for those

00:03:05.110 --> 00:03:10.370
25 minutes right so just to summarize uh five

00:03:10.370 --> 00:03:14.409
steps so you use gpt4 i use gpt4 to generate

00:03:14.409 --> 00:03:18.849
smart scheduling recommendations integrated google

00:03:18.849 --> 00:03:24.270
calendar api to sync tasks and events um integrate

00:03:24.270 --> 00:03:29.210
a slack api for generating notifications a pomodoro

00:03:29.210 --> 00:03:34.879
based timer for more dedicated focus blog and

00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:39.039
a simple frontend using streamlit a python based

00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:45.900
library for a nice clean user interface so before

00:03:45.900 --> 00:03:49.039
i build this air life planner i was constantly

00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:52.460
behind schedule but now my productivity has skyrocketed

00:03:52.460 --> 00:03:55.879
i get more done in less time i always know what

00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:58.719
to focus on next and i feel in control of my

00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:01.210
day rather than reactive And the best part, you

00:04:01.210 --> 00:04:03.750
can build this too. And if you want to see how

00:04:03.750 --> 00:04:06.449
exactly I built this AI Life Planner, you can

00:04:06.449 --> 00:04:08.870
check out my full life guide here. It's like

00:04:08.870 --> 00:04:12.229
a full guide here. So you can read it for free

00:04:12.229 --> 00:04:17.009
on Substack. So this is like my personal website.

00:04:17.850 --> 00:04:21.230
And you can just read that over there. Now, I

00:04:21.230 --> 00:04:24.209
want to hear from you. Would you let AI manage

00:04:24.209 --> 00:04:27.370
your schedule? What features would you add to

00:04:27.370 --> 00:04:31.839
an AI Life Planner? Drop a comment. or just reach

00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:35.300
