👋 Welcome to AI Central,
We all have that one task we put off every single week. Wouldn’t it be great if it was already done when you opened your laptop?
That's what we're building today: your first AI automation. Start with something small and a little boring, then use 5 quick questions to find what else is worth handing over.
If you build an automation today, hit reply and tell me what it is. I love seeing what everyone's building.
Both guides are at the bottom 👇
Big hug and love you ❤️
Kris & The AI Central Team
P.S. Have some feedback you’d like to share with me? Send it here
🔗 TOGETHER WITH WISPR FLOW
AI is only as good as what you tell it
The fastest way to give AI more context is to talk. But that only works if the transcription is right. Wispr Flow runs on Canto, its own speech model, trained on real dictation instead of studio audio.
In Wispr's tests on 10 hours of real dictations from 2,300+ speakers, Canto had the lowest word error rate of every model tested, including Google and OpenAI. It also pulls from your personal dictionary, so tool names, project names and teammates come out spelled right.
Talk through the whole problem, hit enter, and get a better answer. 4x faster than typing, in every app.

📓 Build your first AI automation
Chapter 26 connected your assistant to your work and Chapter 27 decided what it's allowed to do, and both of those happen with you sitting there watching. This is the chapter where something useful happens while you're asleep, and the first time it works it changes what you think this thing is for.
Your instinct will be to automate the job that costs you the most time. That instinct is right and it's the wrong first move, and section 28.1 is 2 minutes on why.
Inside this guide you will learn:
Section | What you can do by the end |
|---|---|
28.1 Build the harmless one first, not the important one | Pick a first automation with the blast radius test, before it can cost you anything |
28.2 Every automation is a trigger, an action and a result | Describe any automation in any tool in 3 lines, whatever its buttons are called |
28.3 One specific automation, running before you turn the page | Build a morning brief that runs without you, in about 4 minutes |
28.4 Test it on purpose, and build it so silence means one thing | Prove it ran, and make a quiet day mean broken rather than nothing to say |
You'll need: your assistant open, whatever you connected in Chapter 26, and 15 uninterrupted minutes. This one is a build, not a read.

📓 5 questions to find work worth automating
Inside this guide you will learn:
Section | What you can do by the end |
|---|---|
29.1 The task you find most annoying is usually not the one to automate | Build a candidate list from a week of notes, sorted by shape rather than subject |
29.2 Two of the five questions are gates, not scores | Run 5 questions over a candidate and know which 2 can veto it outright |
29.3 Do the sum before you build, and expect it to say no | Price a build in hours before you start, with the upkeep line included |
29.4 One candidate, audited, built, then tested against a week you already did | Back-test a new automation against a week you already did by hand |
You'll need: the automation you built in the guide above, and a week of notes on every piece of work you did more than once. Keep mail and diary work off the list - that's Friday, on purpose.
