Day 103: Use AI to discover new music that matches your mood.

Instead of asking for a vague playlist, give an AI assistant a mood, a setting, and a few musical anchors so its suggestions are easier to test. Prompt: "I want music for [mood or activity]. I already like [three songs or artists], but I do not want repeats from them. Recommend 10 tracks from at least four artists, explain in one short line why each fits, and arrange them from the easiest match to the most adventurous. Avoid [genres, tempos, or themes I do not want]." Check the first three tracks in your licensed music service, save only the ones that fit, then tell the AI which choice was closest and which missed. Ask it for five revised recommendations based on that feedback, without repeating any earlier artist. This creates a small discovery loop instead of an endless list, and your feedback makes the second round more useful than the first. Tomorrow, we’ll use AI for another practical everyday task. - Ivy

Day 102: Design the workflow before automating it.

Automation magnifies whatever is already in a workflow, including missing owners and silent failure paths; start with the operating logic on one page so people can challenge it before a tool begins repeating it. Exercise: "Map this workflow before suggesting any automation. Use these headings: Trigger, Inputs, Rules, Actions,

Day 101: Question a document before you file it.

A document can look ready to archive while a due date, reference number, or requested follow-up is still hiding in the text; before you file it, give an image-capable AI assistant the page and ask for a traceable extraction, not a loose summary. Copy and paste this prompt:
