One AI To Rule Them All

Last year, I wrote about creating your own AI bot, which is trained on your data to help you with your business goals - read how to do it here.

Now, I want to show you how to use multiple bots that have different functions to amplify whatever you are working on.

1. Open ChatGPT

2. Choose the GPT you want to work with

   

3. In the prompt section choose "@whatever bot you want to use”

   

4. Then ask it what you need - in the context above I used a bot that finds research papers for your query

   

5. Now you can link the two together by using the output from one bot with the knowledge of your own bot

   

I showed this to another board member I work with, and she is using this in multiple ways to improve her governance.

From marketing to strategy to data visualisation, you can combine multiple bots to get the answer you need.

Using this across each of my businesses has sped up my ability to iterate far faster than any other tool I’ve used.

Give it a go.

Notes:

Bear in mind these bots aren't yet producing advice that is super specific.

So a buyer beware disclaimer: The usefulness of the outputs of these bots can only be determined by you and should not be accepted as truths.

They are, however, incredible time savers of herding multiple tools into one place.

I Wish I Realised This Earlier

In the almanack of Naval Ravikant, he shares his principle theory on generating wealth.

In this case, leverage is the amount of output or impact produced per unit of your time.

And the corollary to this is - that we can reshape forms of leverage to produce even greater outputs. For example, you could store your money in a no-interest cash account or use it to buy a stock that appreciates in value over time.

The same applies to people.

My first few years of managing people were embarrassingly ineffective. I used to give people tasks, check that they're done, then move them on to the next one, and I'd call myself a manager. When really I was just directing and doing it poorly.

It was a terrible way to work with people because by constraining them to do particular tasks precisely as directed, I gave them no chance to develop and reshape into more effective people.

It’s not like I didn’t know that some people can generate 10x - 100x the outcomes of others with the same time. I just didn’t recognise that the 100x person was once a 1x’er, and it was actually my job as the manager to help the 1x person get to 100x.

It took me ages to figure this out, but doing so has been worth it.

I used to manage with direction but now I manage with expectations.

I clearly explain the outcome I want them to achieve, with a vision of what the world looks like when they've achieved it.

Then I help them set KPIs that they can use to measure their progress - so they know whether they're on or off track.

And I coach them along the way by reinforcing what they're doing well, helping them course correct where they're going wrong, and nudging them towards straighter and shorter lines to the outcomes they're trying to achieve.

By using this framework, Phil, my now business partner, has improved the value of his contribution to our business 10x over the past 3'ish years. And Ben, our gym manager, has improved his output ~3x since he started with us two years ago.

My team is small, yet my leverage has increased exponentially by reshaping their outputs. You can imagine how this compounds over longer period of time and larger team sizes.
