“AI for the Stuff You’re Bad At” with Nadia EllisNadia Ellis is back. Our very first guest returns for round two, and this time we’re getting into something both highly practical and deeply human: how to use AI to help with the stuff you’re just not great at.This episode is about those everyday moments where friction creeps in — staring at the blank page, trying to untangle your own thoughts, or drowning in information you’re supposed to do something with. And how AI can actually make life easier, if you know how to work with it.We talk about:How AI can fill in your blind spots and shore up your weaknessesWhy AI might be the unexpected hero of an ageing workforceWhat happens when AI gives everyone a megaphone, but no one an editorThe three big blockers: getting started, catching your thoughts, and cutting through the noiseWhy the next big human skill might be reviewing, not writingThe productivity trap of AI workslop (and how to avoid it)From procrastination to productivity, neurodiversity to noisy inboxes, this episode is a warm, funny, and strategic look at how we can make AI work for us not the other way around.Slideshow with Dave Hayward is a production of Europa Creative Partners. Links and resourcesFollow Nadia Ellis and Dave Hayward on LinkedIn Join the Bright Objects newsletter: www.europa.nz/#subscribeChapters00:00 Welcome Back: AI and Its Applications02:58 AI for the Stuff You're Bad At05:41 Drowning in Information: The AI Work Slop08:10 The Role of AI in Communication11:03 AI as a Thought Partner13:16 Democratizing Knowledge and Creativity16:25 Breaking Down Silos in Organisations17:41 The Rise of the Generalist25:58 Harnessing Voice Technology for Enhanced Productivity29:36 The Power of AI in Structuring Thoughts32:47 AI as a Collaborative Partner in Decision Making35:17 AI's Role in Emotional and Cognitive Support42:57 Overcoming Procrastination with AI Planning Tools
