The robots aren’t coming—they’re already here. But instead of panicking, what if we used them to become more focused, efficient, and present in life?

In this episode of Bad Day Excellence, host Brian Walsh breaks down AI in plain language and shows you exactly how he uses tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, NotebookLM, and Power Automate to:
✅ Save 1.5+ hours a day at work
✅ Level up as a parent
✅ Learn faster on the go
✅ Help his son improve reading comprehension
✅ Create real-life, gamified learning experiences using free AI tools

Whether you’re brand new to AI or just scratching the surface, this episode will help you:

  • Understand the 3 types of AI (Narrow, General, and Super)

  • Apply AI to reduce overwhelm and sharpen your focus

  • Build habits around AI that create time, not take it

👊 Brian’s challenge to you this week:
Open an AI app and ask it:
“I’m a smart person trying to grow. What can you tell me about [insert any topic]?”
Talk to it like an old friend. See what shows up. That’s how clarity begins.
